ultrack is the official live tracking and telemetry app for cycling, bikepacking, and ultra-endurance competitions.
Whether it's a 200km brevet, a multi-day bikepacking adventure, or a challenging ultra-cycling race, ultrack reliably records your position, speed, and checkpoints—with minimal battery consumption.
KEY FEATURES:
• Extremely energy-efficient GPS tracking
Thanks to an intelligent, episodic background tracking architecture, the GPS module is selectively woken up at intervals, and the device is then put back into sleep mode. This keeps the tracker active even during stages of 24 to 48 hours without draining your power bank.
• Interactive route map & checkpoints
Track the official race route (GPX), keep track of checkpoints, aid stations, and sections, and see the positions of other participants on the map after a manual update.
• Automatic split times
Checkpoints and finish lines are automatically detected as you pass them and transmitted to race control with a precise timestamp.
• Offline First & Poor Reception
Dead zone in the mountains? No problem. All waypoints and telemetry packets are cached locally on your device and automatically synchronized as soon as a data connection is available again. Map tiles are cached for offline use.
• Transparency & Security
Background tracking only runs when you actively start the event and is transparently displayed via a persistent notification in the status bar. Tracking stops immediately after you reach the finish line or stop it manually.
BATTERY OPTIMIZATION NOTE:
To prevent Android from pausing tracking in the background during longer rides in your jersey pocket, we recommend setting ultrack's battery usage to "Do not optimize" (Unrestricted). ultrack was designed from the ground up to consume minimal battery power, even without optimization.
Data protection and hosting: All servers and databases are 100% operated in certified data centers in Germany (Frankfurt am Main and Saxony).
