(FULL VERSION ONLY) • Progress bar to graphically see the stage evolution. • Reverse mode to be able to subtract distance if we get lost. (FULL VERSION ONLY) • Odometer mode that will show us clearly the distance and elapsed time so we can read the data to use when there's a stage with defined passing times. (FULL VERSION ONLY) • Adjust distance button to set the distance at any time. • Simple and visual road book where we see the stages, distances, start times ... • Possibility of inserting or delete stages. • Improved interface for faster and easier data input. • Entering sector distances and time we will be able to follow the average from stage to stage. • Up to 99 averages for each stage with 2 decimal precision. • Reference average change. • Cross or references advise programable per stage that allows to have the navigation information and that can also help to adjust distances in the stage. In the settings tab we define the app functions and we can also access to extra items like the new and powerful pilot mode. • Almost all the parameters are fully configurable to our needs. • Delayed start to allow stage start if we arrive late. • Manual or automatic navigation advises popup close. • Manual end of stage allows us to exactly know the distance we have at the specified end of stage by pressing a button. We won't need to stop at the end of the stage to check precision. • Start times automatic calculation. • Up to 5 decimal calibration value with a new interactive calibration system that makes it unique and simple. (FULL VERSION ONLY) • Up to 4 calibrations that we can change during stage if we need to. (FULL VERSION ONLY) • Wireless sensor control with signal level. (FULL VERSION ONLY) • Copy/Paste stage mode to complete the track stages or stages were we need to copy the first lap. (FULL VERSION ONLY) • Pilot mode (*) allows to have 2 devices connected, one in the hands of the co-pilot with the usual operation and a second device with only the info needed by the pilot: advanced/delayed distance, actual speed, elapsed time and elapsed distance for a comfortable navigation in the stage or between stages. This information is shown in big digits with background color change. (FULL VERSION ONLY)

This app is designed for various types of automobile rallies that require measurement of time, speed, or distance between segments of the rally route including stages and checkpoints. To make sure that all initial conditions are set properly when using GPS, touch the "Reset/Pause" button and choose the "Reset, New Rally" option. Also, it is important to allow Apple's internal GPS time to determine the current location and to begin interacting with the app by driving around a bit before you start using the app on a rally course. Begin computing distance, time, and speed by touching the "Start Rally" button. Alternatively, when the app has been either restarted to zero distance or paused, you may select a minute for the "Next Starting Time." GPS inputs trace the path along the rally route. From time to time you may measure time, speed, and distance for a stage or a checkpoint. These measurements will be stored in a table and the points will be indicated on a map. An alternative view showing the odometer measurements more prominently is available by touching the "Mode" button in the upper menu bar. You may subtract distance when you travel off course. A toggle button switches between on course (blue line) and off course (red line) travel. Distance measurement can be set to miles or kilometers and time measurement can be set to minutes and seconds or decimal minutes. The distance may be displayed with either 2 or 3 digit precision. Make your selections by touching the Settings with a "sprocket" button beside the "About" button. The app is designed to adjust the GPS coordinates of a moving vehicle owing to the time between reception of new GPS signals and to the time lag between the time the signal was generated from satellites and the time when processing actually occurs in the app. Also, you may adjust the location coordinate by the distance between the GPS receiver in the car (either the iPhone or iPad or some third-party GPS receiver) and the position on the car where a rally may measure time or location at timed controls (sometimes this is the front of the car or the center of the front wheels). These three potential errors in coordinate measurement are discussed at length in a 6-part thread in the Facebook "Road Rally Tech Talk" forum. To fine-tune the app's distance between GPS receiver and front wheels (if necessary) and clock time figures to the rally's official measures with the options in the Adjustments popup. Unlock to make adjustments and lock to save the changes you make and to prevent inadvertent changes. You may pause or gain time on a particular stage by adding or subtracting time on a stage. Also, you might wish to "bump" the recorded GPS distance +/- to align with official rally distances. Touch the button in the lower right-hand corner to access the "bump" function. A log view shows additional information at each stage including the latitude, longitude, and the current speed at the time the New Stage button was touched. Disclaimer: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
