I NEED HELP/INFO!

Post by Benitez1117 » Thu May 14, 2015 8:22 pm

Anyone know of an app for iOS that can track your motorcycle road trips and possibly even show you good roads?

Take a look at "Greatest Road". Haven't used it yet, but have it on my phone. Someone on here recommended it. Not sure what all it does.

Another one I have but haven't used is GPS CoPilot.

If you're talking about someone being able to track you on another device, there are a couple, including "Find my Friend" or something to that effect. There is also one that will show your speed to whomeveer is tracking your phone/location. I do NOT have that one loaded. :-)

doesn't google tracks have an ios app?

If not, I think the "find my phone" stuff will track your locations if you allow it to.

Yep, it may have been Find My Phone, not Find My Friend. My wife can track where I'm riding with that from her phone, or the iPad.

I use CoPilot all the time. It works great as a GPS and you can load pre-made maps to it, but loading them is not easy. It will not track where you go, though.
