Explore an unfamiliar city, wander through narrow streets—and suddenly you no longer know where your cruise ship is docked, where the bus is waiting, or where your hotel is. Navigate Back was created for exactly these situations.
SAVE PLACES AND PLAN TRIPS
Save hotels, berths, meeting points, destinations, or the location of your car. Add an address, GPS coordinates, notes, and important contacts. Prepare your trips at home on your iPhone or iPad.
THREE WAYS TO EXPLORE
Map Navigation: Choose a saved place, an address, or GPS coordinates. Navigate Back provides turn-by-turn directions—on foot, by bicycle, by car, or by public transport. Your journey is recorded along the way, and the outbound and return trips can be saved as separate tracks.
Compass Navigation: When there is no suitable road network, the app shows the direct direction to your destination, along with the distance, estimated arrival time, and other information. Ideal for trips away from marked paths, across open terrain, or on the water. Your actual path is recorded automatically and saved as a separate route.
Free Movement: No destination and no directional guidance—simply start walking, running, or riding. Navigate Back automatically records your path. Ideal for bike rides, hikes, walks, and exploratory trips where the journey itself matters.
PHOTOS, MARKERS, AND TRIP DETAILS
Add markers along the way and link photos to your route. After your trip, view details such as distance, duration, pace, elevation profile, steps, and more. You can also use your recorded track to help retrace your journey.
STAY ORIENTED OFFLINE
Using GPS and the compass, you can determine your current position, direction, and distance to your destination—even without a cellular connection. The app transfers all relevant destination data directly to Apple Maps for navigation. If the required maps have been downloaded in advance, navigation is also available offline.
CONTACTS AND TRANSLATION ASSISTANCE
Save phone numbers for tour guides, bus drivers, the ship’s reception desk, or family members. The conversation feature translates spoken or typed text and can read the translation aloud.
Navigate Back is not an emergency, rescue, or maritime navigation service. In immediate danger, contact the local emergency services. When on the water, always use the required navigation equipment.
COMPANION APP FOR APPLE WATCH
On Apple Watch, you can view previously saved destinations and routes, use the compass to check direction and distance, and call important contacts. You can also start navigation on the paired iPhone.
New places, contacts, and routes must be created in the iPhone or iPad app. The Watch app does not provide independent route planning or turn-by-turn navigation and requires a compatible iPhone with Navigate Back installed.
PRIVACY
No account, no registration, and no advertising or cross-app tracking. Location and route data are used only for features you initiate and are stored locally. When synchronization is enabled, the data is synced between your devices through your personal iCloud account.
Navigate Back gives you the freedom to explore—and helps you find your way back later.
