Driving Options
Step-by-step guide →The defaults every route starts from. You can still change them for a single trip when you plan one.
Scenic / back roads starts every trip with major highways turned off. You can turn them back on for a single trip when you plan one.
Routing runs on your device, so these apply offline. Your vehicle's size and weight limits come from the vehicle you pick above, not from here.
Device recovery
Recovery passphrases need the installed app. In a browser your data stays in this browser's storage, and clearing site data removes it.
Step-by-step guide →Cloud Sync
Sync your pins, area studies, destinations, routes, and trips across devices with end-to-end encryption. Your data is encrypted with a passphrase only you know — we never see your unencrypted data.
Step-by-step guide →Zero-Knowledge Encryption
Your sync passphrase never leaves your device. All data is encrypted locally before being uploaded. Even we cannot read your synced data. If you forget your passphrase, your 24-word recovery key is the only way back in — Keryx cannot recover it for you.
