About Ariadne - find your way back
Ariadne is the simplest GPS there is. One big button.
You leave the hotel, park the car, set off through an unfamiliar town. Press START - and walk wherever you like. When you want to go back, Ariadne shows the path you walked on the map, and a big arrow with the distance tells you which way and how far. It can say it out loud, too.
» One START and one I'M HERE - nothing else to learn
» Your own path on the map, no route planning, works with no signal
» A compass arrow and the distance in big digits
» Spoken directions: "The place is 200 meters to your left"
» Day mode - black on white, readable in full sun
» Works in your pocket: the path keeps drawing with the screen off
» No account, no ads, no tracking - your location never leaves the phone
Ariadne asks for location only "while using the app" and shows a notification whenever it is drawing your path in the background.
