Offline and truly lightweight GPS navigator with minimal on-screen, voice, and vibration guidance
ROADS • TRAILS • CITIES • BEYOND
It is designed for map-free navigation, delivering directions through vibrations and minimal on-screen and voice guidance, enabling distraction-free and screen-off usage.
Different vibration patterns distinguish right turns, left turns and other instructions. Minimal voice guidance is kept aligned with the navigation notifications, while notifications are designed to work well with smartwatches and smartbands.
See the route direction relative to your position, with surrounding streets extracted directly from downloaded BRouter segments—without a full map renderer.
BRouter handles route calculation and turn generation offline. Internet access is needed only for destination searches that rely on online services.
GPS fix acquisition adapts dynamically to the remaining distance to the next instruction, reducing needless high-frequency location work. Navigation is also optimized for screen-off use: when the display is off, unnecessary rendering and processing are avoided to prolong battery life.
Use history-first suggestions, OpenStreetMap search, speech input, map selection, Google Maps redirect search, or coordinates shared from another app.
Add intermediate stops, export GPX data, pause navigation and reroute around a blocked street while keeping background navigation active.
BRouter is used when a real route is needed; straight-line mode stays available even without BRouter installed.
Choose a BRouter profile, enter a destination, optionally add intermediate stops, then follow vibration, text and voice guidance along the calculated route.
Plan a circular BRouter route from your current location using a target distance and direction—useful when the journey itself is the destination.
Navigate toward the next stop or destination using compass direction, straight-line distance and ETA. No BRouter installation is required.
