Should you head out? Send it! reads the morning sky and hands you one straight answer for your ride or your run: SEND IT, NOPE, or the in-between (GRAVEL for cyclists, GRIND for runners). No squinting at weather charts at 5am. Set your limits once. Send it! judges the next few hours against your numbers, then lets you scrub across the day to find the best window. WHAT YOU GET - The verdict. One glance tells you if it's a go, a maybe, or back to bed. Same straight answer whether you ride or run. - Tuned to your sport. Cyclists and runners shrug off cold, wind and heat differently, so the call is judged by how you move, not a generic forecast. - An alarm that checks first. Pick a wake time and it judges the morning before it rings. A go wakes you; a no-go stays silent so you sleep in, with an optional backup time so it can never make you oversleep for work. - Whole-route judging. Bring a route from Strava, RideWithGPS, or a GPX file and Send it! judges it leg by leg at the time you'll actually be there, so you see exactly where the sky turns. - Go out with your crew. Invite friends to a ride or a run. They join with a tap, and you get a ping the moment someone's in. - The week ahead on your home screen, so the good day jumps out. - Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, with your morning verdict and start time right where you glance. Free, and staying free. No ads, no tracking. Your location is used only to read the weather. Made with care by Common Tools Co.
