Apex GP is a ride telemetry app built around one flow: start a session, see live GPS speed, G‑load, and a map on a clear dashboard that works in portrait and landscape. Choose car to jump straight in, or motorcycle—after a short phone stabilization pass you also get lean angles (pitch and roll) alongside G‑force and the route. Sprint-style interval timers and speed-threshold cues help you read the moment without hunting for small numbers, and you can tap to hide chrome when you want a cleaner full-screen view. Motion-based values depend on the iPhone’s sensors; if the screen is off or the app is in the background, the system may pause motion while GPS and the track can often keep recording—worth knowing before you rely on every channel. When you finish, Apex GP opens a post-ride summary: duration, average and peak speed, and average / peak |g| with sensible handling at crawl speeds. You get charts for speed and G over time, plus a route view colored by speed or G along the path. From there you can open a full-screen map to pan and zoom, scrub along the route to inspect a moment, and play back the recorded line so the ride is easy to revisit and understand—not just a list of numbers. Your trips accumulate in history with totals in statistics and highlights in profile (including a nickname stored on the device). When iCloud is available for your Apple ID, trip history can sync across your devices; otherwise everything stays on this iPhone. There’s no mandatory account inside the app—just your rides, your maps, and your charts, kept as local as possible unless you choose the iCloud path. https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

The configurable grid helps you create layouts to real-world scale, making it easier to reproduce the same track on an actual training area. Plan your track • Create fields with custom width and height • Place different cone types on precise grid positions • Rotate and edit cones • Build routes by defining the order of cones • Create multiple routes on the same training field • Use the same position multiple times within a route • See the calculated route distance in metres Navigate large layouts • Pan and zoom around the field • Use the minimap to see the entire training area • Jump directly to any part of the field • Fit the whole field on screen or quickly zoom in Save your work CanvasGym automatically saves your tracks and changes locally on your device, so you can continue editing where you left off. Keep tracks you create in My Tracks and imported layouts separately in Loaded Tracks. Export and share • Export tracks as JSON files • Import compatible JSON tracks from other users • Export printable PDF layouts • Export track images for quick sharing Whether you’re preparing a motorcycle gymkhana course, setting up a riding or driving exercise, designing a karting layout, or sharing a track with others, CanvasGym gives you a simple way to plan it before placing the first cone.
