Recording apps that work here

You can upload a ride recorded on your phone and see it beside your bike's own telemetry. Most apps export a standard GPX file, and this site has always read those, so the list below is longer than you might expect.

Motion sensors: lean angle and G-force

Only these capture the phone's accelerometer and gyroscope. Lean angle and lateral G cannot be derived from a GPX at any sampling rate: the information is not in the file. If you want those charts, record with one of these.

  • Sensor LoggeriOS · AndroidRecords the accelerometer, gyroscope, barometer and GPS at high rate. Upload the ZIP exactly as the app exports it. This is where lean angle, lateral G and cornering radius come from.
  • RaceChronoiOS · AndroidThe track-day standard: high-rate GPS, motion sensors, optional OBD and video overlay. Export as GPX for the route today.
  • Harry's LapTimeriOS · AndroidSimilar ground to RaceChrono, long established on track. GPX export.

Route only: map, elevation, speed and gradient

Any app that exports a standard GPX works. These are the ones riders use most; the list is not exclusive.

  • Organic MapsiOS · AndroidOffline OpenStreetMap navigation, open source, very light on battery.
  • CalimotoiOS · AndroidMotorcycle route planning, popular across Europe.
  • REVERiOS · AndroidMotorcycle-specific planning and recording.
  • StravaiOS · AndroidExport an activity as GPX from the web site.
  • KomootiOS · AndroidPlanning and recording.
  • OsmAndiOS · AndroidOffline maps, highly configurable recording.
  • WikilociOS · AndroidLarge public route library.
  • Gaia GPSiOS · AndroidOff-road and touring.
  • SceniciOSMotorcycle touring navigation.
  • Garmin ConnectiOS · AndroidIf you ride with a Garmin device. Export GPX.

How sure are we?

A green tick means we have tested a real export from that app. The rest are listed because they produce standard GPX, which the importer reads, but their export options change with each release and we have not checked every one. If an upload does not work, tell us and send the file: that is how a tick gets earned.

What about Relive?

Relive makes videos from activities you recorded elsewhere, so it presents a ride and does not measure one. Record with any app above and you can use both.
