ATVANS is an application for Android, a tool designed to enhance the experience of ATV enthusiasts, particularly those exploring the trails of Nova Scotia. This utility offers various options for both casual riders and seasoned adventurers.
Maps and offline mode
One of the core features of the app is its offline functionality. This is crucial for riders who often find themselves in remote areas with limited or no mobile data coverage. The app allows users to see their location on the map using their phone’s GPS signal. It is possible to view nearby amenities such as restaurants, gas stations, hotels, and parking. There is information about trail conditions based on the last available data connection.
When connected to the internet, the app provides real-time updates on trail statuses. This ensures that riders are always informed about the best routes to take, avoiding any closed or hazardous ones.
Routes and statistics
Additionally, the utility includes social features that allow you to share your location with friends. This makes it easier to meet up with fellows and ensures that no one gets lost. It is possible to plan trips, create detailed routes, and share them with your group. This feature is perfect for organizing collective rides.
Moreover, the utility tracks trips by leaving breadcrumbs, which helps in easier backtracking. It also provides statistics on average speed, distance traveled, and other useful metrics. Finally, riders can list their equipment within the app, keep track of the distance covered with each vehicle, and maintain notes on each one.
