## What is NaviKite?

NaviKite is a navigation app built for snowkiters and mountain users who need simple, reliable guidance in exposed terrain.

The app focuses on situational awareness when conditions change fast: voice guidance, Return to Base, Whiteout mode, route checks, offline map support and clear direction cues designed for use while moving.

Use NaviKite to:
• navigate to saved destinations
• follow planned routes and waypoints
• get spoken distance and direction updates
• return to base quickly
• check routes on a map before starting
• use offline charts where mobile coverage is limited
• log trips and export GPX files

NaviKite is designed for snowkiting, backcountry skiing and other mountain activities where hands-free navigation can improve safety and reduce the need to handle your phone in difficult conditions.

Always use NaviKite together with proper mountain judgement, map knowledge and backup navigation equipment.
