TRAILASAUR
Learn the Land Beneath You!
Only for iPhone
Free · In‑App Purchases
You know it was the asteroid. You ride anyway.
TRAILASAUR is built for the kind of person who tracks descents, debates K–Pg boundary evidence, and thinks both matter. It is a high-performance outdoor tracker and a live paleontology intelligence network in the same app, by design.
THE TRAIL SIDE
Turn every ride, hike, ski run, and walk into progression. TRAILASAUR logs your activity, rewards your effort, and builds a record of your outdoor life that actually means something.
• Real-time GPS tracking for rides, hikes, skiing, and walks
• Expeditions: multi-stage quests tied to real-world activity
• Earn TrailBites and unlock Relics in the Artifact Vault
• Spend TrailBites in the Tavern Shop on real gear and accessories
• Bike setup logging for fork, shock, tires, drivetrain, and pressure
• Smart PSI calculators for tires and suspension
• Strava sync with improved export reliability
• Post-activity summaries with stats, maps, and badges
• Trekker DNA: your rider profile, refined over every session
• Themes, profile customization, arcade games, and weekly nudges
From the bike park to the summit to the skin track, every adventure counts toward your legacy.
THE DINO NEWS SIDE
Most outdoor apps stop at the trailhead. TRAILASAUR goes 66 million years further.
The Dino News Network is a live intelligence feed that tracks the paleontology world so you do not have to. Four channels, updated daily, straight from the frontier:
• Discoveries: new species, taxonomy revisions, and fossil finds
• Breakthroughs: peer-reviewed research and preprint alerts
• Museums: exhibits, collections, acquisitions, and openings
• Media: documentaries, podcasts, books, and drops
Tap the meteor. Stay informed. Know things other people do not.
ONE APP. TWO OBSESSIONS.
The trail is out there. So is the science of everything that roamed it before you. TRAILASAUR is the only place that treats both seriously.
Ride. Roam. Roar.
