Your Smartphone as a Bike Computer

Navigate offline, record your rides, pair Bluetooth sensors – with your smartphone, no account and no subscription.

📍

GPS Recording

By default, oratrek checks your GPS position every 2 seconds, and you set the update interval yourself. Recording keeps running even with the screen locked.

📡

Bluetooth Sensors

Connect your Bluetooth sensors (BLE): heart rate monitors, speed/cadence sensors and power meters. Detected automatically.

🧭

Navigation

Import your GPX route and let the app guide you. You decide how you get your turn-by-turn hints: on screen, as a sound or as a notification.

🚲

Activity Profiles

Save settings for road cycling, mountain biking, running and more. Every activity, perfectly configured.

📈

Live Statistics

Monitor all key metrics in real time: average speed, heart rate, cadence and much more.

⚡

Auto-Pause

Recording pauses automatically when you stop or move very slowly – handy for rides with lots of stops.

🔋

No Cell Signal Needed on the Go

You set the update interval yourself, and you don't need a cell signal while you're out riding.

🔒

Your Data, Your Device

oratrek doesn't need an account. The app stores your rides, sensor data and statistics on your smartphone, not with us.

Frequently Asked Questions

All the answers at a glance

Is oratrek really free? ▼
Yes, oratrek is completely free. There are no hidden fees, no premium features and no subscriptions. The app was built by enthusiastic developers for the community.
Does the app work without an internet connection? ▼
On the go, you don't need a cell signal. Before your ride, oratrek briefly needs the internet: you download map files once, and when you import your route, it is sent once to oratrek's own server in the EU, which calculates the turn-by-turn hints from it.
Do you collect my data? ▼
Your recorded rides are stored on your smartphone, and we have no access to them. Data only leaves your device in these cases:
  • when you download map files before your ride,
  • when you import a route: it is sent once to oratrek's own server in the EU, which calculates the turn-by-turn hints from it and does not store it,
  • when you allow crash reports or usage statistics,
  • when you set up uploads to Intervals.icu.
Which data is transferred in these cases is explained in the Privacy Policy.
Which Bluetooth sensors are supported? ▼
oratrek pairs Bluetooth sensors with three profiles: heart rate monitor, speed/cadence sensor and power meter. The app finds your sensors automatically.
How long does the battery last with the screen on? ▼
That depends on your smartphone and your settings. Recording keeps running when you turn off the screen, and you set the update interval yourself.
Can I upload my activities to Intervals.icu? ▼
Yes, optionally. You can connect Intervals.icu to oratrek and upload your activities automatically. This is completely optional – no strings attached.
Which platforms is oratrek available on? ▼
oratrek is currently available for Android only. Expanding to iOS will be evaluated in the future. The app itself is fully available in German and English.
