Just works
The HUD mirror layout for night driving is a nice touch. Small thing but it’s clearly made by someone who actually drives.

1.3.4
September 4, 2026
1.3.4 • The speedometer shows 0 when you stop. No more wrong speed at a red light. • Auto-Record starts faster, stops when you park, and now records walks and runs. • Choose how often you get trip notifications: every trip, once a day, or never. • Bug fixes and small improvements. 1.3.3 • More accurate distance, top speed and elevation gain. • The app always opens ready to record on Auto. 1.3.2 • A redrawn heatmap. Your routes now read clearly at every zoom: crisp, road-width lines up close, and single trips stay easy to spot when you zoom out to a whole city or country. Color tells you how often you've been somewhere — not how far you've zoomed in. • Auto-Record polish: trips you take over mid-recording are handled consistently, and the save screen tells you exactly where you stand. 1.3.0 Trace can now record trips for you. Auto-Record captures your drives, rides and walks in the background — you review them later and keep the ones you want. Prefer to stay hands-on? A lighter mode just reminds you to press Record when you're on the move. Also new: • Auto mode — just hit Record and go. No more picking Walking or Driving first: Auto handles any trip, from a stroll to a highway drive, and the speedometer and route colors adapt to your pace as you move. You can always name the activity later from the trip itself. • The speedometer fits your trip now: it starts at a sensible range and grows as you speed up. Set your own speed limit and everything above it shows red. • Distance is more accurate, especially on walks, runs and curvy routes. Lost GPS shows as a gap, not a made-up straight line. • iCloud sync is faster and more reliable. • Optional evening summary of your day's trips. • Refreshed colors and lots of small fixes. No account, no ads. Your trips stay yours. Questions or ideas? df@dukefu.com
