About

RoadTrace

Features
Read full description

RoadTrace records where you went — and how fast you were going at every point of it. Press START before a drive, a run or a walk. RoadTrace draws your route on a map and stores your speed and altitude at every point, so afterwards you can see exactly what you were doing, and where. A DASHBOARD YOU CAN READ AT A GLANCE • Large digital speedometer, built for a car mount • Live trail: the road behind you, coloured by how fast you were going • Altitude from the barometer — far steadier than GPS alone • Tap the dial for a full-screen, speed-only view EVERY TRIP, IN DETAIL • Your route coloured by speed: green where slow, red where fast • Zoom the map and individual speed readings appear along the road • Speed and altitude graphs you can pinch, drag and scrub to any exact second • Distance, duration, max and average speed, climb and descent WORKS WITHOUT SIGNAL Recording never needs the internet. Position, speed and altitude come from the phone's own GPS and barometer, and every trip is saved on the device. The map fills in when you reconnect. KEEPS RECORDING Recording continues with the screen off and the app in the background. HONEST ABOUT ITSELF Every trip shows how many samples it captured and how good the fix was. Satellite speed from a phone is an estimate, and RoadTrace says so rather than pretending otherwise. PRIVATE Your routes stay on your device. Nothing is uploaded. Coins pay for recording time — one coin records five minutes. Your first trip is free.
