Your outing, from the first invite to the last memory.

I’m building TTR for hikes and road trips with the people you choose. The latest work brings invitations, live routes, watch recording and shared memories closer together. These features are being tested before launch.

Plan ahead. Or just start.

Prepare a route and meeting points, or begin an outing where you are. A planned outing can have no drawn route, too. Switch between hiking and driving as your day changes.

See whose route is whose.

Each mate has a distinct colour. Walking sections are solid, driving sections are dashed, and the planned route stays separate in blue. Return to your own location after exploring the map.

An invitation that finds you.

The latest app work brings incoming invitations over the screen you’re using. Accept to join, leave it for later, or decline. Friends can also be invited to watch the outing.

From your pocket to your wrist.

Phone and tablet builds are prepared for iPhone, iPad and Android, alongside separate Apple Watch and Wear OS apps. Watch sign-in, recording and saved-point recovery are being checked on devices.

Your finish. Everyone’s memories.

Finish your own part without ending the outing for the group. Keep photos and videos with their locations, revisit the route, and choose what stays private or is shared.

A soundtrack with your stamp on it.

The new song flow adds male or female vocals, instrumental music and styles such as funky house, amapiano, acoustic and rock. Creators choose whether to offer their songs; mates vote, and the organiser selects the winner or all approved songs for the public share.

What is still being checked?

Real-device GPS, background recording, reconnecting after signal loss, invitation display, provider sign-in and song generation still need end-to-end acceptance. Local builds and automated checks are progress, not a launch announcement. Features and availability may change before release.

What we’re building

The best home for your hiking group.

The experience I’m building for South African trail groups — from the first pin on the map to the album on Sunday night.

🥾🚐

Hikes and road trips, one appThe same trusted group and the same live map, whether it’s a sunrise summit or a Garden Route weekend — waypoints become fuel, lunch and the viewpoint, and every car stays on the map.

Plan the routeDrop waypoints — water, the turnoff, the summit, the regroup. See distance and difficulty before you leave.

📍

Hike together, liveEveryone on one map in real time, from phone or watch — who’s ahead, who’s behind, who’s doing fine.

Invite your matesAdd anyone by WhatsApp or email. Already on TTR? they just tap accept and they’re on the map. New here? they join and land straight on the outing — nobody added without saying yes.

📸

Keep the memoriesPhotos pinned to the exact spot you took them, an AI story, a best-shot album, even an AI soundtrack for the day — and a replay that shows where every mate was, moment by moment.
