DirtOS is GPS built specifically for off-road — racers, chasers, rally teams, overlanders, UTV crews etc. Not a generic outdoor app with a "trail mode" tacked on.

GROUP RIDE, CHAT + PUSH-TO-TALK - Live crew tracking with names and speeds. - In-app chat with presets, voice-to-text, optional TTS announcement. - NEW: Push-to-Talk voice messages. Pair a BLE PTT button (Herda, Zello-compatible) and hold to broadcast to every racer in the group. - Offline tracking via Meshtastic LoRa — share location with zero cell service. T1000-E, Wio Tracker, Heltec supported. - Public + private + persistent multi-day groups. RACE ORGANIZER PORTAL NEW: dirtos.io/org — web console for race directors. Import a master route, broadcast text or voice to every registered racer. All updates land instantly in the app. TRAIL FINDER + CUSTOM ROUTING - Trail Finder — drop pins on satellite imagery, DirtOS traces unmapped desert roads between them. - Custom GraphHopper routing, 116M edges, 9 vehicle profiles from dirt bike to full-size 4x4. - Universal Go To — tap any address, POI, coordinate, or group member. - Automatic gas stop insertion based on fuel range you set. Section Delete + Connect for field edits. OFFLINE MAPS - Route Corridor Download follows your actual track shape — 5-10x fewer tiles than a bounding box. - Silent Zoom Clamp so the map never goes white when cell drops. - Zombie-Cell Detection falls back to your downloaded zoom automatically when tiles start failing. - Region Download with polygon selection. Storage Manager with per-region size + zoom range. TOUR MODE + WEATHER - Tour Mode — Wikipedia landmarks narrated as you drive. - NEXRAD radar overlay + NWS forecast + severe alerts + precipitation warnings 20 miles ahead. ROUTE MANAGEMENT - Merge Items combines routes, tracks, or runs. - Record Mode, 3D Flyover Preview, Photo Waypoints Overlay, Cloud Sync. - USFS + BLM Trail Overlay filtered by vehicle type. RACING ESSENTIALS Next 3 Waypoints Display, Compass Pointer, Off-Course Warnings, Speed Zones with over-speed alerts, Chase Cam (double-tap Find Me for heading-up view) WHY THIS EXISTS Built by people who actually go offroad. Interface works with gloves, in sunlight, at speed. Turn detection knows the difference between a note at a gate and a critical Y-junction. Every feature exists because someone needed it in the dirt.

Voice keywords for your Bluetooth button, a full-screen flyover, a clearer map, pacenote-style callouts, and the whole DirtOS guide in your pocket. **Voice keywords** Settings → Bluetooth Button pairs your push-to-talk button and holds your voice keywords. Hold the button, say "Danger, big rock", and the waypoint drops with the Danger icon and colour — named with everything you said. Triple Danger, Double Danger, Danger and Go are set up for you; add your own and pick each one's icon and colour. **Flyover** Pause a flyover to change its speed and zoom — pinch or tap + and −. The controls slide away while it plays so the map fills the screen, and a dot shows where you are on the route. **Feature Guide built in** Settings → Need Help? now opens the full DirtOS guide — searchable, and it works offline. **Pacenote-style distance to the next turn** Turn on Settings → Turn Detection → Announce Distance to Next Turn and hear it like a co-driver: "Right 2, 150". **Clearer waypoints** Waypoint names sit in a crisp black box with white letters, dot colors match the turn severity, and names step back when you're not on a Run so the map stays readable. **Smoother location arrow** Your arrow and range rings glide between GPS fixes and point the way you're facing. **Collections** New "Only routes on the map" filter in the Sort menu, a count of what's showing in each collection, and full item names. **Run** Open Settings without stopping your Run. Starting a Run offers to hide the other routes on the map for that run. Distance to finish now counts down on routes with no waypoints. **Group Ride** Make group member dots and names bigger or smaller.
