About this app

VeloSpot is your privacy-friendly cycling app for Germany, France and Luxembourg – navigation, route planning, ride tracking and bike-parking search, fully usable offline, with no proprietary services and no tracking whatsoever.

Over 100,000 bike parking spots from OpenStreetMap are bundled right inside the app and visible from the very first launch, no connection required.
