It blends live tracking, historical records, and clarity around permissions so you always know how the app supports your training. **Live ride console** Launch workouts from a full-screen map with GPS lock indicators, instant speed/distance readouts, and a slide-to-end action that prevents accidental stops. Switch between cycling, running, and hiking in one tap to keep stats consistent. **Deep record insights** Browse past sessions through scrollable cards, tap for per-route distance, pace, ascent, and time, and compare any month at a glance.
