Black Rock Compass is your companion for Black Rock City. There's always more happening than you can see. BRC helps you catch more of it — and find your people (and the nearest porto) while you do. Browse thousands of events by day and vibe — music, workshops, parties, fire, food, art, and more. Save favorites and build your personal schedule. Find your crew with a real-time compass needle that points directly at your friends. Set a status so everyone knows what you're up to — "at camp", "heading to temple", "come find me". Works with GPS and Bluetooth when cell signal drops. Explore the BRC map with layers for camps, art installations, events, and friends. Tap anything for details and directions. Message your crew directly or in groups. Messages queue offline and deliver when signal returns. Set your status and share your location with nearby friends over Bluetooth — no cell signal needed. Your crew sees where you are and what you're doing, even in the deep playa. Plan a hop crawl — a route between events, bars, or art installations. Pick a vibe and go. Feeling spontaneous? Hit Surrender and let the playa decide what's next.
