Yoon is the navigation and addressing app built for Africa. Open the map and find your way — even where street names don't exist or change between languages. Yoon was designed from day one for places where traditional mapping apps fall short: dirt roads in Nouakchott, neighborhoods known by local landmarks instead of postal codes, regions absent from the world's main maps. KEY FEATURES Africa-first navigation • Turn-by-turn driving, walking, and cycling directions on roads other apps don't know • Public transit routing — bus lines, fares, and timetables across Nouakchott and beyond • Real-time alerts for service disruptions and route changes • Background navigation keeps your route updating when the screen is locked Multilingual by default • Full interface in العربية, français, and English • Place names rendered in your chosen language with proper Arabic right-to-left layout • Searchable in any of the three languages Built-in offline mode • Download regions for offline search and navigation when you lose signal • Works in the desert, in remote villages, or anywhere connectivity drops Crowdsourced addressing • Add an address for your home, your shop, or a place that doesn't exist on other maps • Suggest edits to existing places — verified by local moderators • Report inaccurate or inappropriate content with a tap Discover nearby • Restaurants, pharmacies, fuel stations, ATMs, and more • Opening hours, contact info, and walking distance at a glance Save and share • Bookmark your home, workplace, and favorite spots • Send a location, place, or route to anyone via WhatsApp, SMS, or any messaging app PRIVACY Location is used only to show you on the map and provide turn-by-turn navigation. Background location is enabled only while a navigation session is active. Sign-in is optional — browse, search, and navigate as a guest. Sign in with Apple is supported.

Kaltrix turns your drive into an informed one. It fuses cross-brand radar-detector telemetry with a fast, navigation-grade live map — so the road ahead is never a surprise. Most driving apps show you where you are. Kaltrix shows you what's coming: a real-time, crowd-sourced awareness layer built from drivers around you, laid over turn-by-turn navigation that actually knows which way you're facing. WHAT YOU GET • Live awareness map — a clean, tactical dark map that surfaces corroborated road alerts ahead of you, color-coded by type and confidence. • Navigation-grade routing — turn-by-turn directions with lane guidance, speed-limit display, and smart departures that don't open your trip with a needless U-turn. • Connect your detector — pair a compatible radar detector over Bluetooth to fold its signals into your map, or run in crowd-only mode with no hardware at all. • CarPlay built in — a purpose-built CarPlay experience: glanceable maneuvers, your speed and the posted limit, and awareness cues, all sized to your car's screen. • Trip history & replay — every drive is saved; look back at your route, speed, and a shareable trip summary. • Crowd-powered, privacy-first — you contribute anonymized, coarsened signals and get everyone else's in return. Your precise location is never shared or logged. BUILT FOR AWARENESS, NOT DISTRACTION Kaltrix is a driving-awareness tool in the spirit of the road-alert apps you already know. Everything is designed to be understood in a glance and to keep your eyes on the road. PRIVACY Sharing is anonymized and location data is coarsened on our servers before anyone sees it. We never log your coordinates. Read our full policy at kaltrix.app/privacy. Drive aware. Drive Kaltrix.
