Driveline

Driveline records your drives automatically and turns them into exportable route maps and GPX files — with no buttons to press. Connect to your car's Bluetooth or CarPlay and your drive starts recording in the background. Disconnect and it stops. Driveline handles everything quietly while you focus on the road. AUTOMATIC RECORDING Set up two Shortcuts automations once and never think about it again. Driveline starts when your car connects and stops when it disconnects — via Bluetooth, CarPlay, or both. It even detects when you've been stopped too long and finishes the route automatically. YOUR DRIVES, BEAUTIFULLY ORGANISED Every finished drive appears in a clean list grouped by date, showing the start and end place names, distance, and duration at a glance. Tap any drive to see the full route plotted on a map, along with detailed stats: average speed, maximum speed, distance, and duration. WEATHER AT EVERY STOP Driveline fetches the weather conditions at your departure and arrival — temperature, condition, and a weather symbol shown right on the drive detail screen. EXPORT IN STANDARD FORMATS Share your route as a GPX file compatible with Strava, Komoot, QGIS, or any mapping tool that understands GPS data. Or export a clean PNG map image, ready to drop into a blog post or share with friends. LIVE ACTIVITY ON YOUR LOCK SCREEN A Live Activity on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island shows elapsed recording time while a drive is in progress — so you always know it's running without opening the app. FIND ANY DRIVE WITH SPOTLIGHT Every finished drive is indexed in Spotlight. Search by name, start location, or end location from the iOS home screen and jump straight to that drive's detail. MERGE ROUTES Forgot to start recording? Merge two drives end-to-end into a single continuous route. ON-DEVICE DRIVE CLASSIFICATION A built-in machine learning model automatically assigns each drive a category — Errand, Urban, Road Trip, Scenic, or Mixed — entirely on your device. ICLOUD SYNC Your drives sync across all your devices via iCloud automatically.
