Where to go this Friday, by the forecast

Made for the mountains

  • Maps that work without internet

    Download your province once: contours, hillshade, slope and trails, all on the phone. Satellite imagery and daily snow cover when you are online.

  • Record your climb

    Distance, ascent and time with the screen off and the phone in your pocket. Follow a route and get warned when you leave it.

  • Share your trails

    Publish a recording or a GPX file as a hike, a climb, a bike ride or a run. Others like it and comment, and the people who follow you hear about it.

    See the trails on the website
  • Safety in one place

    SOS by text with your coordinates, a medical card, emergency contacts, offline first aid and altitude sickness, together on one page. Turnaround and dusk alarms, "are you OK?" after a long stop and fall detection while you record.

  • Live location for your family

    Send a link and they follow you on a map in the browser, no app needed; a group code keeps a team together on the mountain.

  • Where to go this weekend

    Suggestions near you picked by Friday's forecast, and collections such as the 4000 m peaks or the waterfalls around Tehran.

  • Springs, shelters and campsites

    Thousands of springs, huts, campsites and trailhead car parks from OpenStreetMap, available offline.

  • Plan along the trails

    Tap the way and the route follows real paths, with distance, climb and walking time.

  • A community of climbers

    Follow other climbers, summit logbooks, seasonal challenges, a club league and rankings by peaks - never by speed.

Questions

Is it free?

Yes. Safety and offline features will always be free.

Does it work without internet?

Yes: downloaded maps, recording, the compass, SOS by text message and first aid all work with no signal.

Can I share a trail I recorded with another app?

Yes: publish its GPX file from the app, with its activity and difficulty, and it gets its own page on the website too.

What about my privacy?

Your climbs stay on your phone unless you sign in to back them up; everything is private until you make it public, and you can stay out of every ranking.

Does it drain the battery?

Recording uses GPS like any tracking app; low-power mode takes a point every 10 seconds and roughly halves the drain.
