About

AEROUTE

Read full description

AEROUTE is a cyber-styled GPS drive logger built for two moments: checking the road before you go, and reliving the drive after you're done. Enter a start point and a destination, and AEROUTE builds a route that follows real roads. With a sleek heads-up display (HUD) interface and dynamic 3D map playback, every drive, planned or finished, becomes a piece of data art. KEY FEATURES ■ MISSION PREVIEW: plan and preview your drive Tap a start point and a destination on the map, and AEROUTE calculates route options for you: Recommended, Avoid Tolls & Highways, Avoid Highways, and Avoid Tolls. Before you head out, preview the route as a virtual drive in 3D Flyover. Saved plans can be edited any time, so you can change the destination or route type whenever you like. ■ 3D Flyover playback Replay not only your planned routes but also the drives you've actually completed, with a drone-style camera that follows your path across a 3D map. Winding mountain roads and long coastal cruises come back to life. During playback, drag left or right to look around, drag up or down to change the camera angle, and pinch to zoom. The view is yours to steer. *Available only in areas supported by 3D Flyover. ■ Cyber console UI Monospaced typography and a solid dark theme display your speed, elevation and distance like a spaceship or sports car cockpit. ■ Detailed drive stats - Distance / Moving time - Average speed / Max speed - Elevation gain / Max elevation See the scale and elevation of every drive in numbers, and stay motivated to hit the road again. ■ Private, on-device storage No sign-up or login required. Your GPS logs and route plans are stored securely on your iPhone and are never sent to external servers without your knowledge. ■ PRO plan (monthly subscription) - Unlimited drive history (the free version shows your 10 most recent drives) - Unlimited MISSION PREVIEW plans (the free version saves up to 3) - No in-app ads New subscribers can try it with a free trial. PERFECT FOR - Drivers who like to preview unfamiliar roads before setting out - Anyone who wants to keep a log of drives in a new car - People tired of dull-looking navigation and logger apps - Anyone who loves exploring their own travel data PLEASE NOTE - AEROUTE uses GPS in the background to record your route. Continued use of GPS in the background can use more battery than usual. - In the free version, History shows your 10 most recent drives. Older drives are never deleted and stay stored on your device; subscribe to the PRO plan to see them all. - In the free version, you can save up to 3 plans in MISSION PREVIEW. The PRO plan removes this limit. Before the drive and after it, chart new routes with AEROUTE.
