The only trail app that reroutes you around a bushfire. 627 Australian trails, live fire and closure alerts, and full offline maps for where the signal stops. Trail closed? Your route already knows. When bush fire or park closures hit a trail you're planning or already on, NaviTrail automatically re-routes around it β no manual replanning. DBCA has published a diversion for Munda Biddi or Bibbulmun? Navitrail automatically applies it to the route and removes the diversion when alert has expired. Build your own route β tuned to how you travel. Draw a custom route and NaviTrail optimises it for the way you move: hiking, road or e-bike cycling, or motorcycling all get different paths, surfaces and speeds. Built on real Australian data, by real Australian hikers and cyclists, for everyone to be safe and have a great time on the trails.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Petrol Smart at none against NaviTrail's 4. NaviTrail's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
