PathReel

PathReel — Turn Your Journey into a Story You Can Replay Every trip leaves a trail. A walk through your neighbourhood, a weekend bike ride, a cross-country road trip, or a flight across the ocean, PathReel captures your GPS tracks, photos, and workouts, then transforms them into living memories you can replay anytime. Automatic Trip Recording PathReel intelligently detects walking, running, cycling, driving, and flying — and can switch modes automatically during the same journey. Set your home as a geofence, and PathReel will automatically start recording when you leave and stop when you return. No buttons. No reminders. Built for long trips, background GPS recording is optimized for battery efficiency and remains reliable even with the screen locked. Watch Your Life on a 3D Globe Replay your journeys on a cinematic 3D satellite globe with two unique recap modes. Media Recap Relive your travels month by month with photos, stops, and smooth cinematic camera movements that automatically adapt to your activity. Route Recap Watch a UFO travel across the globe and retrace every journey you’ve taken. A glowing beam reveals each route on the map before the UFO lifts back into the sky and flies to your next destination. Smart camera transitions automatically adjust altitude based on travel distance — from local city trips to full intercontinental flights. Walking through a city should feel different from crossing an ocean — and PathReel makes it feel that way. Export Beautiful Videos in One Tap Turn any trip into a shareable cinematic video.
