## What is Penguin?

Choose more than the fastest route.

Penguin compares driving routes using travel time and exposure to known cameras, so you can choose the tradeoff that works for you. Pick the fastest route, a balanced option, or the route with the fewest known camera exposures.

COMPARE ROUTES

• See travel time, distance, and known camera exposure together
• Compare fastest, balanced, and lower-exposure options
• Understand when a more private route adds time

NAVIGATE WITH CONFIDENCE

• Follow spoken, turn-by-turn guidance
• Get automatic rerouting when you leave the route
• Receive camera-ahead alerts while navigating
• Continue your drive with CarPlay

KNOW WHAT IS AHEAD

• Browse known plate readers, speed cameras, red-light cameras, and surveillance cameras
• See camera direction and available source details
• Control whether low-confidence camera records appear

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT

• No account required
• Precise location, destinations, favorites, and trip history stay on your iPhone
• No advertising trackers
• Delete local trip history whenever you choose

Camera coverage varies by area and depends on available data. Penguin cannot guarantee a camera-free route. Always follow traffic laws and use your judgment while driving.

### 2/5 — Great idea, needs lots of work.

*2026-08-30*

Love the idea but the app is unfortunately completely unusable

Extremely buggy, crashes/freezes/stutters a lot, especially when zooming out

Can hardly see/read anything in the UI with my phone on dark mode

Was never able to get it to actually start navigating a route before it would freeze/crash so can’t speak to its navigating ability.
