Hike Track

Your Ultimate Hiking Companion

Precision tracking, privacy protection, and comprehensive analytics for every trail adventure

App Description

Hike Track keeps your hikes mapped on Apple Maps with multi-GNSS accuracy, privacy-first local storage, and compliance-ready permission dashboards so every trail session stays under your control. It combines live pacing overlays with clear guidance the moment you tap Start.

Live Map Recording

Start and pause tracking directly inside the hike map with multi-GNSS fusion, automatic anomaly correction, and offline buffering so your pace, cadence, and elevation stay accurate even when reception drops. The advanced tracking algorithm combines data from multiple satellite systems including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou to provide sub-3 meter accuracy in optimal conditions. Automatic anomaly correction identifies and filters out implausible location jumps caused by signal interference or environmental factors, ensuring your recorded path matches your actual route. Offline buffering continues recording your movement even when network connectivity is lost, syncing the data once a connection is reestablished to create a complete, uninterrupted trail record.

Session Summaries

Highlight steep climbs, attach notes, and review distance, duration, split pace, and cadence in one screen before jumping back to the map. Each hike session is automatically analyzed to identify significant elevation changes, providing visual indicators of steep climbs and descents on your route profile. The notes feature allows you to mark specific locations with text annotations, photos, or voice memos to document points of interest, wildlife sightings, or trail conditions. Comprehensive metrics include total distance, moving time, elapsed time, average pace, split times at configurable intervals, cadence measurements, elevation gain and loss, maximum and minimum elevation, and calories burned based on your personal profile data.

History & Exports

Browse your encrypted on-device archive by date, pin important hikes, and export GPX files to Files for safekeeping or sharing without touching a server. All your hiking data is stored locally on your device using industry-standard encryption protocols to ensure your personal fitness information remains private and secure. The intuitive history browser allows you to filter and sort past hikes by date, distance, duration, or elevation gain. Star important routes to quickly access your favorites and share your adventures by exporting GPX files directly to your device's Files app, giving you complete control over your data without any cloud synchronization requirements.

Permission Center

See location, motion, and notification statuses in a single checklist with clear instructions for fixing missing permissions before the next outing. The centralized permission dashboard provides at-a-glance visibility of all required and optional permissions, clearly indicating which ones are enabled or disabled. Detailed explanations help you understand why each permission is requested and how it enhances your hiking experience. One-tap navigation to system settings makes it easy to adjust permissions as needed, ensuring you have the optimal configuration for accurate tracking without unnecessary data access.

Hike Track keeps reliable hike telemetry and compliance insight ready for every adventure—download and stay prepared.
