Tired of the same pothole damaging your car every morning? Pot Hole Hound is a sensor-driven app that passively detects potholes, bad bumps, non-flush manhole covers, etc. as you drive — no buttons to press, no manual logging, no distractions. Just mount your phone, start monitoring, and drive normally. The app does the rest. How it works ———————————— Your phone's accelerometer and GPS work together to detect when you hit a road impact. Pot Hole Hound captures the location, severity, and timing — all locally on your device — then anonymously contributes the data to a community map that helps cities prioritize their repair budgets. Privacy-first by design ——————————————————— - No account required - No email, phone, or personal info ever collected - Anonymous device ID — randomly generated, not linked to you - Auto-generated playful identity (your "Hound Name" — like "Sprinting-Brown-Hippo-29") for leaderboards - We don't track your route. Only the moments you hit a bump. - Zero ads. Zero third-party trackers. Crowdsourced to fix the worst first —————————————————————————————————— Your detections feed into a community map of road damage that's anonymized and aggregated. The more drivers contribute, the clearer the picture becomes. Cities and road authorities can see exactly which streets get hit hardest by the most drivers — so they can prioritize repairs based on real impact, not just whoever complained loudest. Compete with the Hot Hounds ——————————————————————————— Track your contributions on community leaderboards: - Daily Dogs — today's most active mappers, resets every day - Total Potholes — lifetime detection count - Miles Monitored — distance you've actively contributed - Potholes Per Mile — for serious commuters Earn badges ——————————— Hit milestones (10 / 50 / 100 / 500 / 1000+ potholes) to unlock 10 collectible dog breed badges, from Jack Russell Terrier to Irish Wolfhound. Show off your "Hound Pack" collection with every drive. What you'll need ———————————————— - A phone mount or cradle (loose phones absorb vibration and miss detections) - Location permission (we only use it during active monitoring) - Motion sensor permission (the accelerometer does the work) What you'll see ———————————————— - Live g-force readout while monitoring - Real-time community map of detected road damage - Your personal pothole map - Your daily and lifetime stats Why it matters ———————————————— American drivers spend an estimated $26 billion each year on pothole-related vehicle damage (AAA, 2022). Tires, suspension, alignment — all under attack from neglected roads. Pot Hole Hound turns every driver into a data point that helps cities target their repair dollars where they'll do the most good. Drive smarter. Map smarter. Fix the worst first. Pot Hole Hound is free, ad-free, and built by drivers, for drivers.
