Built for roads worth the drive

Mountain passes, hairpin bends, winding back roads: Hairpin is for people who go there on purpose, alone or with friends. Two wheels or four, same app, same crew.

On a motorcycle

Your ride records even with the phone in your pocket. Through your headset, a voice tells you where to turn.

In a car

Due dates, services and running costs for the car, all in the garage. On the road, the same map as your crew.

From the garage to the summit

These are the app's own screens: they switch between day and night, just like on your phone.

  1. The Today screen: weather, vehicle and the Go button
    Today

    Open the app and go

    Weather until sunset, today's vehicle and who in your crew is already out. One tap on Go and the ride starts recording.

    Map

    A map made of bends

    Passes, bends and viewpoints marked, your crew live and upcoming events. At sunset the map switches to night on its own.

  3. A ride in progress: distance, time and speed
    Run

    Your ride, in big numbers

    Distance, time and average speed you can read at a glance. Pause and Finish are two wide buttons, well away from everything else.

Your crew, before and during the ride

A crew is your road group: who organizes, who's coming, who's already on the way.

  • Events with a meeting point, stops and a route. Answer “I'm in” and see who's coming, on two wheels or four.
  • On the day, your crew live. Who's ahead, who's taking a break, how many kilometers are left.
  • Invites by code, QR or link. Whoever gets one finds the crew and asks to join.
  • You choose who sees you, always for a set time. Live tracks fade after 24 hours, and near home you disappear from the map.

Questions

What people ask before installing it.

Does it work in a car too?

Yes. Garage, rides, map and events work the same on a motorcycle and in a car, and one crew has room for both.

Why an APK and not the Play Store?

For now, Hairpin installs from the file you download from this site. The first time, Android asks for permission to install apps from this source. Small updates arrive on their own inside the app; for big ones, download the file again from here.

How much does it cost?

Nothing: Hairpin is free.

What about iPhone?

The iPhone version is in the works. When it's ready, you'll find it on this page.

Who can see where I am?

You decide in “Who sees you”, always choosing for how long: nobody, only your crew, only the people on the grid with you, or everyone. Live tracks fade after 24 hours and, if you turn on the shelter, you disappear from the map within 500 meters of home.

Do I need a signal in the mountains?

Rides record without a signal and save as soon as it's back. You can download a region's map before you set off.

How do I delete my account and my data?

From Profile, in the Account section. What happens to your data, and how quickly, is explained in the Privacy policy.
