About

Every mile of the Appalachian Trail, from Springer Mountain to Katahdin, already on your phone. TrailDash is built for the days when your phone shows "No Service": the maps, shelters, water and your hike recorder all work in airplane mode, with nothing to download first. THE WHOLE A.T. OFFLINE • Topo map of all 2,197 miles and 14 states on the official trail centerline, with contours and elevation profile • 400 shelters, 649 campsites and 252 water sources, plus 951 peaks and 50 trail towns with hostels, food, resupply and post offices • Works in airplane mode out of the box: no map packs, no "download before you go" GPS HIKE TRACKER • Record your day with a battery-aware GPS breadcrumb trail that keeps going with the phone locked in your pocket • Miles, moving time, pace, elevation gain and loss, and calories • Whole-trail elevation profile: tap any mile to jump there on the map MESH CHAT WHEN THERE'S NO SIGNAL • Message and see your trail family on the map over Bluetooth phone to phone, no cell service needed • Pair an optional LoRa radio to reach hikers miles away • Trail-wide chat, topic rooms and private messages when you're back in signal SAFETY • SOS screen with your exact coordinates, ready to text or send over the mesh • Private trail groups that share live location only with people who accepted your invite • Journey Watch: a private link so family can follow your progress from home • Severe weather alerts and the Higher Summits forecast for the big climbs TRAIL LIFE • Digital shelter registers, trail magic, passport stamps and badges • Pack list with base weight and community shakedowns • Apple Watch app: start and stop hikes, see your stats and read chat from your wrist TrailDash does not replace emergency services or a satellite communicator. Carry a paper map and know how to call for help. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Maps and trail data live on your device. Location sharing is off until you turn it on. No ads and no cross-app tracking. SUBSCRIPTION TrailDash requires an active TrailDash Pass auto-renewable subscription (annual or monthly) to use the app after account setup. Payment is charged to your Apple Account and renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage or cancel any time in your Apple Account settings.

Hike recording now keeps going with your phone locked in your pocket, and uses less battery doing it. • More accurate miles and elevation: noisy GPS points and altitude spikes are filtered out • A hike in progress resumes automatically if your phone closes the app • Much lower battery use from Bluetooth, the Apple Watch app and retries when there's no signal • Incoming SOS alerts over the mesh now always notify you and show on the Emergency screen • Trail Beacon remembers its timer; passport stamps come back on a new phone • Fixes for Partner Studio, sign-out and the Apple Watch app
