About

Trasely

Features
Read full description

Trasely is a running route app that turns a photo, SVG vector outline, shape, or just a distance into a real GPS route you can run, walk, or cycle — on the actual streets around you. Generate a route, export to your watch, and run the shape. SEVEN WAYS TO CREATE A ROUTE → Find a Shape Pick where you want to run and Trasely searches the entire shape library for you. It ranks the shapes that best fit the nearby streets, centers each one over the roads, and shows live progress while it works — so you can choose a route that already fits the area. → Photo to route Pick any photo — a heart, a star, your dog, a sketch on paper. On-device AI extracts the outline, then Trasely fits that outline onto the real street network near you and returns the best-matching route. → 500+ built-in shapes Hearts, stars, letters, animals, arrows and more, across seven categories. Scale, rotate, mirror and drop any of them anywhere on the map. → SVG vector import Import clean SVG outlines, icons, and logo-style vector art. Trasely turns supported paths and primitives into editable route contours. → Draw a shape Trace any shape with your finger directly on the map. The algorithm fits your sketch onto the nearest real streets. No photo or template needed. → Loop route No idea where to go today? Set a distance and an activity, and get a full loop from your current location in seconds — optionally routed past parks, landmarks or cafés. → Point to point Tap a start and a finish. Trasely builds the best road-following path between them. Great for commutes, one-way rides and exploring a new city. REAL STREETS, NOT STRAIGHT LINES Every route follows the genuine road and path network — sidewalks, cycle lanes, trails — using graph-backed routing on OpenStreetMap data. Distance, elevation profile and a shape-match score are calculated for every result. EDIT UNTIL IT'S RIGHT (PRO) Drag any waypoint to reshape a segment; it snaps back to the nearest road automatically. Unlimited undo. Reposition, rotate and scale the whole shape on a live map before you generate. EXPORT ANYWHERE • GPX 1.1 and TCX course files • Opens in any app that imports GPX — Strava, Komoot, Garmin Connect and more • Share image of your route generated automatically YOUR ROUTE LIBRARY Every route is saved on your device. Reopen, re-export or share any of them later. PRIVACY Photo analysis runs entirely on your iPhone using Apple Vision — your images are never uploaded. Route generation sends only map coordinates to our routing provider. No account, no sign-up, no tracking. TRASELY PRO Trasely is free to use: unlimited point-to-point routes, 10 loop routes per week, 3 art routes per week, and free export of everything you make. Trasely PRO unlocks unlimited generation, SVG vector import, the full 500+ shape library, the Route Editor, custom distances and longer routes. • Monthly subscription • Annual subscription • Lifetime unlock, one-time purchase Current prices are shown in the App Store before you buy. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The monthly and annual subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours of the end of the current period. The lifetime unlock is a one-time purchase and does not renew. Manage or cancel your subscription in Account Settings after purchase. Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors.
