How it works
From planning to the finish.
You can plan, record and share an outing in the same app, whether it’s a two-hour run after work or a five-day Himalayan trek. Each step below is one part of the app.
-
Pick a route
Browse trails nearby or anywhere, filter by activity and difficulty, and read the latest condition reports. Save the offline map in one tap.
Gather the crew
Go solo, host a group or join one. Friends scan your QR code at the trailhead, join the lobby, and you start everyone at once.
-
Go, with backup
Big, sunlight-readable stats while you record. The group map shows who’s ahead and who’s at the back. SOS is always one tap away.
Share the finish
Your summary has the elevation chart, photos and XP. Post it to the feed, stamp the peak in your passport, and climb the leaderboard.

Your crew, on the map.
See where friends and groups have been, then plan the next one together. Starting a group trek, ride or convoy takes three steps.
-

-
STEP 2
Friends scan to join
Each person appears in the lobby as they join. Lock the list when everyone is there.
-
STEP 3
Start and finish together
Recording starts on every phone at once. At the end, TrailScout shows who isn’t back yet and offers to wait.
03 — Safety
Never go alone.
Live location for your group and one-tap SOS, even without signal. When the towers drop out, the phones in your group pass location and alerts to each other over Bluetooth.
One tap, two channels
SOS sends an SMS with your location to your emergency contacts and broadcasts over Bluetooth to nearby phones.
Keeps repeating
After you send it, your location goes out again every 2 minutes until you tap “I’m safe”.
Automatic check-in
Turn it on and TrailScout checks on you if you haven’t moved for 45 minutes.
Bluetooth mesh
Phones in a group relay each other’s location with no network, so the group map keeps working in the valley.
04 — Peak passport
Collect the mountains.
Each summit you finish adds a dated stamp to your passport, grouped by region. Personal records track your best time on every trail and compare it with your friends.

Questions
Before you go.
Is TrailScout only for trekking?
No. You can record hikes, trail runs, rides, off-road drives and camps. Routes, stats and pace estimates adjust to the activity you pick, and the safety tools work the same for all of them.
Does it work without mobile signal?
Yes. Save a route and its map downloads to your phone, so navigation and recording keep working offline. In a group, phones share location with each other over Bluetooth when there’s no network.
How do off-road routes work?
Off-road tracks show a grade, which vehicles they suit, and recent reports on crossings and closures. Drive them as a convoy using the group map to keep every vehicle in view.
How does a group outing start?
The host opens a lobby and gets a QR code and a short code. Friends scan the QR or type the code to join. When everyone is in, the host taps Start for everyone and recording begins on every phone.
What happens when I press SOS?
TrailScout sends an SMS with your location to your emergency contacts and broadcasts an alert over Bluetooth to nearby phones. It repeats every 2 minutes until you tap I’m safe.
Can I book a guide?
Yes. Verified local guides list their speciality, languages and price. Pick a date and group size, and you pay after the trek.
Which regions does TrailScout cover?
TrailScout has routes across the Sahyadris, the Western Ghats and the Himalaya, including Kalsubai, Harishchandragad, Rajmachi, Triund, Hampta Pass, Kedarkantha, Sandakphu, Spiti and Ladakh off-road tracks. You can also browse trails anywhere and draw your own route.
Is TrailScout available on iPhone and Android?
