Field notes
The page describes a sequence from normal GPS guidance to road-bound positioning and, when necessary, a prompt for the user to identify their location. It says the app uses route geometry, turns, and stops to narrow competing road hypotheses; its speed estimate for cars is derived from lateral acceleration divided by angular velocity, while walking uses step counts. Screens shown are identified as iOS and Android beta builds, and the site notes that the interface may change.
