Trail Treker is a map viewing tool for use with the Trail Treker map publishing service. Trail Treker works with clubs, tourism agencies and municipalities to make their maps work offline on end user smartphones. Once the map is loaded, you no longer need phone service; the GPS receiver in your phone will operate without phone service. In fact, we recommend that you place your phone in Airplane Mode if you are in an area with limited or partial phone service to conserve your battery. Trail Treker will also electronically, via GPS location, show local businesses and points of interest. You can store your own points of interest as well. Key points such as survival shelters, supplies, or emergency evacuation points may be shown on various maps. The Trail Treker app will allow you to download any member map. If you have a member map code, the map will be free. If not, the map will be an additional purchase. Continued use of GPS in the background can decrease battery life. FEATURES: Show Trail map overlaid on various Google maps (Standard Street, Terrain, Satellite) Show your position on top of any map. Record your position and tracks Record notes regarding position points Share your saved positions or tracks with others See local businesses on or near mapping area Filter local businesses by category Load and layer up to two maps concurrently and any number of tracks. Load any number of maps (storage space required)

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: BRP GO! at Free against Trail Treker's $3.99. BRP GO! also leads on rating (4.2 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (3.1K vs 9). Trail Treker's advantage is review sentiment (43% vs 15%) and chart position (#29 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

BRP GO! is free to download; Trail Treker costs $3.99 up front. Trail Treker sells 15 one-off in-app purchases and BRP GO! sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

BRP GO! holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BRP GO! has 3.1K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of Trail Treker's written reviews are positive against 15% of BRP GO!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Trail Treker ships an update every 3 months, BRP GO! every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
