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 — it is a way to present a ride rather than a way to measure one. Record with any app above and you can use both.
