GoneCycling

GoneCycling – cycling with full control over your data.

GoneCycling is a focused cycling app for iPhone: record, plan, and ride – with no account, no subscription, no ads. All your rides, routes and settings live solely on your device.

RECORD
• Live map with your current position and heading; show your position as an icon if you like (bicycle, direction arrow, car …)
• Ride recording with live stats – distance, duration, speed, elevation gain and an elevation profile; pause and resume anytime
• Keeps running reliably in the background – even with the screen locked
• Recording and navigation details on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island (Live Activity)
• Notes, a 1–5 star rating, photos and free-form tags per ride – filter and group the list by tag, time period or location (federal state)
• Transport mode per ride (cycling, on foot, car) – statistics and the widget break the figures down per mode
• Share a ride as an image; a statistics overview with totals and records plus a Home Screen widget
• Live POIs while riding (e.g. bakery, playground, ice cream) at the map edge – tapping one routes you straight there
• GPX import and export for full data ownership; open .gpx files straight from the Files app with the app
• Optionally back up individual rides to your own iCloud Drive – one tap on the cloud button per ride

PLAN
• Search for a destination or tap the map directly (start / waypoint / destination); "Search here" scopes the search to the area around a chosen point
• Drag waypoints to move them, tap the route to insert intermediate points
• Round-trip generator: proposes a loop of your chosen length from your location – reshuffle and save it as a planned ride
• Customisable quick destinations (café, supermarket, gas station … – fully configurable)
• Multiple routing providers to choose from: Apple, OpenRouteService and BRouter (server URL configurable)
• Offline maps: download map areas in advance and use them without a connection
• Bike profiles, avoidance options and spoken turn-by-turn guidance; elevation profile for routed paths (with OpenRouteService)

TRIPS IN STAGES
• Plan multi-day trips along a template route – or generate a route from start, destination and intermediate stops with no template at all
• Automatic stage splitting by count or distance; snap to selectable types like hotel, vacation rental, hostel, B&B, campsite or station
• Attach an accommodation to each stage – pick it on the map or from search, with a "booked?" status and check-in time; open the linked ride directly
• Edit, merge, reorder and delete stages – with an elevation profile per stage

GOALS
• Set your own training goals like a fitness tracker – e.g. "100 km per week" or "5 hours of moving time per month"
• Per transport mode (on foot, cycling, car) and period (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly) – or as a one-off challenge with a deadline
• Progress computed live from your rides, with a progress bar, percentage and streak counter
• An optional local reminder at your chosen time and a little celebration when you reach a goal – fully on-device, no account
• Home-screen widget with your active goals

APPLE WATCH
• Record rides straight from your wrist – as a workout with heart rate, even without your iPhone nearby
• Finished rides arrive on your iPhone automatically; recent rides on the watch and a watch-face complication for a quick start

YOUR STYLE
• Choose an accent colour and light/dark mode; a short intro on first launch
• Apple Maps or OpenStreetMap styles (CyclOSM, OpenTopoMap, worldwide, OpenStreetMap.de) – or your own custom tile URL

PRIVACY BY DESIGN
• No account, no backend, no forced cloud
• No ads, no analytics, no tracking
• Your data only leaves the device when you actively export it – via GPX or optionally to your own iCloud Drive

German and English. Built for cyclists who value simplicity and control over their data.
