Description

Retrace AR is the next generation Retrace.

Retrace AR is a real-time GPS tracing app that allows you to retrace your walk, run, bike ride or drive. Its advanced geolocation function accurately traces your path live and provides directions back to the start of your journey or any location you desire. Retrace AR's Save with Photo feature allows you to take a photo of a place, building, signage or even a selfie to associate your trace or location with. Retrace AR is equipped with a fully functioning map utility that allows you to navigate in Augmented Reality (AR).

Retrace AR can be used to trace your run in the park, walk through a foreign city, get directions back to your parked car, save the address of your new favorite bar, and many more.

With Retrace AR, never lose your way again.

a very iphone user ,

A bit disappointed

I originally gave this app a 5 star because i thought I can use it without internet connection. Turns out i was wrong, that’s why i downgraded it to 3 stars. It’s still good for retracing to where you parked your car if you have wireless connection, but if you want an app that can record a trace also without wireless connection I recommend instead GAIA.

I use this for hiking.

Very helpful when I’ve lost the trail, especially when I have REALLY lost it because of snow and downed trees. Let’s me explore since I’m sure I can find my way back. Always turn it on in the woods. Should have used it in downtown Houston yesterday when out running. I got lost and had trouble getting back to the hotel.
