CycLocator turns your phone into a live race dot. Join any GPSDotWatch cycling event with a short code — no account needed — and your position streams to the event map so spectators, your crew, and safety staff can follow you in real time.

On the road
• Live tracking with battery-aware background GPS — keep riding with your screen off while your dot keeps moving.
• See the course and every rider on the live map, with your own position highlighted.
• Choose how often you ping (1, 2, or 5 minutes) to balance detail and battery.
• Points are buffered when you hit a dead zone and uploaded once you reconnect.

Safety first
• One-tap help — water/nutrition, mechanical, or SAG — sends your request and location straight to the event's support crew.
• An always-available Medical / Emergency button with a Call 911 shortcut and an offline "After a Crash" checklist (scene, evidence, medical, legal) that works even with no signal.
• On the public map, rider dots are anonymous — your name appears only if you call for help, and only to event staff.

Watch & follow
• Anyone can follow a race live from the map — no app or account required (also at gpsdotwatch.com).

Your profile (optional)
• Sign in with Apple or Google to claim a rider profile — your rides, roles, and badges, race to race. Anything you do anonymously carries over.

Privacy
• Anonymous by default. We don't sell your data, show ads, or run third-party trackers. Delete your account and personal info anytime, right in the app.

Built for everything from a casual group ride to multi-day ultras.

Background location is used only while you're actively tracking a ride, to send your position to the event you joined. You can stop anytime. ## Rankings - #3,089,289 — Overall ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.INTERNET` - `android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS` - `android.permission.READ_APP_BADGE` - `android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE` - `android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED` - `android.permission.REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS` - `android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW` - `android.permission.USE_BIOMETRIC` - `android.permission.USE_FINGERPRINT` - `android.permission.VIBRATE` - `android.permission.WAKE_LOCK` - `android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE` - `com.anddoes.launcher.permission.UPDATE_COUNT` - `com.android.vending.CHECK_LICENSE` - `com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE` - `com.google.android.finsky.permission.BIND_GET_INSTALL_REFERRER_SERVICE` - `com.gpsdotwatch.cyclocator.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` - `com.htc.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.htc.launcher.permission.UPDATE_SHORTCUT` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.CHANGE_BADGE` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS` - `com.majeur.launcher.permission.UPDATE_BADGE` - `com.oppo.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.oppo.launcher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS` - `com.sec.android.provider.badge.permission.READ` - `com.sec.android.provider.badge.permission.WRITE` - `com.sonyericsson.home.permission.BROADCAST_BADGE` - `com.sonymobile.home.permission.PROVIDER_INSERT_BADGE` - `me.everything.badger.permission.BADGE_COUNT_READ` - `me.everything.badger.permission.BADGE_COUNT_WRITE` ## Similar extensions and apps - [CycloSense - Ride Safety GPS](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.cyclosense.cyclosense) — 21 users - [CycleSafe](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.motaoanainvestments.cyclesafe) — 25 users - [Loctome Sports Live Tracking](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.loctome.app.loctome) — 22,243 users, 4.50 / 5 - [MapCatch](https://chrome-stats.com/d/app.mapcatch) — 51 users - [Sierra Track](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.sierratrack.app) — 9 users - [Pedlopace](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id.pedlo.tracker) — 7 users - [TrailCore Radar](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.gmollo.trailcoreradar) — 229 users - [RideFollow](https://chrome-stats.com/d/live.ridefollow) — 4 users - [Trail Tracking](https://chrome-stats.com/d/run.trailtracking.app) — 32 users - [XoX Sports](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.racetracker.app) — 42 users - [Cronometas Tracking](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.buscametas.tracking) — 1,702 users - [CicloTracker](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.infociclotracker.app) — 28 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.gpsdotwatch.cyclocator)
