The moment
Where the signal dies, the trip goes on
Somewhere on the E6 the last bar goes dark. OnTheRoad doesn't blink: the map, the stops and the kilometers keep counting — no towers needed.

Itineraries, photos and notes
They live on your device only. No server of ours ever sees them.
-
Keys and tokens
Encrypted in Android SecureStore. Never sent anywhere, never in our logs.
-
Payments
Handled by Ko-fi: it sees the amount, never your trips. Donations are optional.

Crash reports
Off by default. You turn them on if you want to help. Always stripped of sensitive data.
If we disappeared tomorrow, your app would keep working. Your data is yours: export it any time as GPX, Excel or PDF.
For those who go
Built for people who travel where guides don't
- You ride a camper, motorbike, van or car where there's no signal.
- You don't want every stop logged in someone else's cloud.
- You've tried €30+/year apps that live online and want an offline alternative.
- You want AI that suggests stops, passes and viewpoints — with your key.

-
Add your stops
Search places, viewpoints and passes. Everything stays on the phone, even offline.

The line forms between stops and locks onto real roads, day by day.
-

The expedition is packed in your backpack. From the Arctic Circle to North Cape, no signal needed.

Integrity check (MD5): __APK_MD5__
Does it work without internet?
Yes, after the first map download. Planning is entirely offline.
Do I have to pay for the AI?
Only if you use it, with your own key (BYOK). Without a key, the app works anyway.
Why isn't it on the Play Store?
We distribute the APK directly, no middlemen or review gatekeepers. If it ever reaches a store, the APK here will always stay.
iPhone?
Not yet. Android only, for now.
Can I see the code?
Yes, the source is public — the link is below, in the footer.
