## Description

GPX Vault is a GPS track recorder and waypoint manager for hiking, biking, and any trip where you want a record of your route. Recording works fully offline, with no account required. Download map areas in advance to browse them offline too.

RECORDING
• Live stats banner shows distance, elevation, and speed while you record
• Save recordings as local GPX files with configurable auto naming, including date pattern formats and UTC or locale options
• Continue a saved track later, right where you left off
• Tap a track on the map for an instant summary: distance, duration, elevation gain
• Live Activity and Dynamic Island show recording status on the Lock Screen

CREW TRACKING
• Ride with your crew: every rider's live position and name on your map, with no cell service needed
• Works over a small Meshtastic LoRa radio paired to your phone (radio sold separately)
• Send short messages and shared waypoints to the whole crew straight from the map
• Emergency beacon alerts the whole crew when a rider needs help
• Fit Crew mode keeps the whole crew on screen while you ride

WAYPOINTS
• Drop waypoints with a button, a long press, or automatic drops as you move
• Name, edit, delete, or drag any waypoint to move it
• Tap a waypoint for a live distance readout from your current position

MAPS
• Choose OpenStreetMap, OpenTopoMap, OpenSeaMap, or Esri World Imagery, with OpenTopoMap as the default
• Download offline map areas (OpenStreetMap, OpenTopoMap, OpenSeaMap) for use without a connection, with background downloads and retry for failed tiles
• Check tile cache size and clear it any time
• Locate button cycles Follow Me, Off, and Fit Crew; Follow Me auto resumes after a pause
• Landscape layout with your stats down the sides, plus a Lock Landscape setting for bar-mounted phones
• Direction of travel arrows, scale bar toggle, keep screen on toggle, imperial and metric units
• Activity type picker (Automatic, Automotive navigation, Fitness, Other navigation, Flight) tunes GPS accuracy
• Pick a custom folder for your GPX files

VAULT (OPTIONAL, SIGN IN REQUIRED)
• Cloud folders and nested subfolders for tracks and waypoints, plus a Trash you can restore from
• Upload local GPX files to Vault, download Vault items back to your device
