Select an orienteering map from the app and print it. Press start and navigate to the next control point using the printed map. There are no physical flags in the course, but the app tracks your locations and notifies you with a sound when you have found the next control point. The app includes a compass so you only need the printed map and your phone to run a race. If you get lost you can ask UsynligO for a "hint" with the direction and distance to the next post. You can also choose to publish your elapsed time to the UsynligO server and be included in the result list for the course you have run.The result list will include how many "hints" you have used, in addition to your time and split times. If you want to publish a new map so other users can run your course, you can go to www.usynligo.no and upload your maps. UsynligO basically lets you arrange orienteering practices and races without the hassle of putting physical flags in the forest. The courses can be available for as long as you determine. If you would like to use it in conjunction with physical flags, it also lets you print QR codes and use a QR code at each location for validation that a control has been found (for accurate timing). It is also possible to access courses from Livelox, which means you can rerun Livelox courses if you already have the map. The app supports both traditional orienteering and also Score Orienteering. In Score orienteering, the user can choose which order to visit the control points in, and the user collects points for every control point found.

Stealth-O turns your iPhone into a terrain mapping tool for orienteering. Create a Place for a real terrain, choose a reliable anchor point, and start collecting the GPS and elevation data that builds your map. Each recording begins and ends at the same physical spot, giving Stealth-O a stable reference for aligning sessions, correcting drift, and improving the result over time. Walk the area, save the recording, and let Stealth-O process the data automatically. Relief overlays reveal contour lines, hills, depressions, ridges, and valleys as your coverage grows. Guidance highlights the parts of the terrain that need more attention, so every next walk has a purpose. Built for practical field work: - Create dedicated Places for forests, parks, and trail networks - Record GPS and relative elevation data while you walk - Start and finish at an anchor point for more consistent mapping - Use Readiness checks for GPS accuracy, distance to anchor, map access, and sharing - Watch Relief and Guidance update as recordings are added - Share Places so multiple mappers can contribute to the same map - Keep recording data safely until it can upload again Stealth-O also includes Event Tools for race day. Find nearby stations and wristbands, use your iPhone as a station when needed, download recorded wristband sessions, and connect results back to routes on the web. From the first walk in an unmapped forest to the final event workflow, Stealth-O helps mappers and organizers build useful orienteering terrain data one recording at a time.
