Dashmap is your cycling companion app that works as both a ride recorder and navigation tool. Just mount your phone on your bike, start navigation, and Dashmap records your ride while you cycle. Ride Recording while Navigating – Keep your phone mounted on your bike to follow directions, and Dashmap will record your ride in the background. • Manual Clip Saving – Tap once to save the last 60 seconds of your ride if something happens on the road. • Simple Bike Navigation – Use a clean, cycling-friendly map view that makes it easy to follow your route. • Local Storage – All saved clips stay on your phone so you’re in full control of your data. This is our beta launch, starting with the essentials. In upcoming updates we’ll add advanced safety features like crash detection, emergency alerts, and insurance-ready summaries.
