Everything
Azimuth does.

Your position plotted in real time on an interactive map. Four tile options — CyclOSM (optimised for cycling and hiking), Positron, OpenStreetMap and Voyager. Auto-follows your position unless you scroll away, with a locate button to snap back.

• GPS position marker with device name label
• Approximate position marker (amber) while awaiting GPS fix — using WiFi or IP geolocation
• Accuracy circle scales to geolocation confidence
• Four map tile styles switchable from the map
• Auto-follow mode with user-interaction detection
• Locate button returns map to your position

All nearby Azimuth devices broadcasting on the same LoRa network appear as peers on the map and in the peers panel. AES-128 encrypted — only devices sharing your network key can communicate.

• Peer position markers on map with heading arrow
• Distance line between you and any peer — shows distance, bearing and ETA
• Follow mode — map centres on a selected peer as they move
• Locate button pans map to peer position
• Peer track line showing recent movement history
• Recording status badge (● REC) and waypoint indicator (📍)
• Peer's saved waypoint shown as separate map marker
• Distance from you to peer's waypoint
• Route stats — point count and total distance
• In/out of range toast notifications

Send text messages over LoRa to all peers (broadcast) or to a specific device (direct). Messages are AES-128 encrypted and displayed on the recipient's OLED screen.

• Broadcast to all peers in range
• Direct message to a specific peer
• Messages displayed on recipient OLED with sender name
• Received message log in the peers panel
• Unread count shown on Position page
• Up to 48 character messages

Create private networks for events, expeditions, or team coordination. Each group has its own encryption key — only devices with the key can see each other.

• Create groups with custom names and auto-generated 16-character keys
• Switch between Personal mode and group modes instantly
• Key sharing via LoRa — request sends to all peers, they tap to accept
• Up to 5 stored groups per device
• Leader/member roles — leaders can share keys, members receive them
• Leave group broadcasts key rotation to remaining members

Start and stop route recording from the device or the web app. Recorded routes are displayed live on the map and can be exported as GPX files.

• Live route line drawn on map during recording
• REC badge in header during active recording
• Import stored routes from device via BLE
• Multiple routes displayed in different colours
• GPX export for use in other mapping tools
• Elevation profile chart below the map
• Route export section shows count of stored routes

When there's no GPS fix the device uses WiFi to approximate your location — useful indoors or at startup. IP geolocation provides a coarse position immediately; BeaconDB WiFi scanning improves accuracy where coverage exists.

• IP geolocation — instant city-level position (~5km)
• BeaconDB WiFi scan — improved accuracy where data available
• Best result wins — accuracy circles scale to confidence
• Amber marker and accuracy circle while approximate
• Replaced automatically by GPS fix when acquired

Full device configuration via the settings modal — changes sync bidirectionally between the app and device over BLE.

• Device tab — rename device, view firmware version
• Units tab — speed (km/h or mph), elevation (m or ft)
• Display tab — screen timeout, brightness, theme
• Network tab — WiFi credentials, OWM API key, LoRa region, interval, network key
• Screen tab — live OLED mirror, PNG screenshot export

Current weather conditions fetched from OpenWeatherMap, shown on the device OLED and synced to the web app. Requires a free OWM API key and WiFi credentials.

• Temperature, conditions, weather icon on OLED
• Wind speed, gusts and humidity in detail view
• Sunrise, sunset and golden hour times
• Moon phase calculated locally
• Magnetic declination from NOAA
• Refreshes automatically every 6 hours

Azimuth uses multiple layers of security to protect your data and communications.

• BLE PIN pairing — 6-digit PIN shown on device OLED, must be entered on first connect
• Session authorisation — all commands require PIN verification per session
• AES-128 CTR encryption on all LoRa packets — position, messages and peer data
• Configurable network key — change from default to create a private network
• Nonce-based — each packet uses a unique counter to prevent replay attacks
• Lockdown mode — blocks all remote configuration via BLE/WiFi, unlock via device screen

Extend network range by enabling relay mode on stationary devices. Relays automatically forward packets for other devices — useful at checkpoints, base camps, or high ground positions.

• Relays position broadcasts, SOS alerts, and group messages
• Deduplication prevents packet loops (30s hash window)
• Random delay (50-300ms) before retransmit to avoid collisions
• Store-and-forward — queues messages for offline peers (1hr expiry)
• Enable via Settings → Relay on device or web app

Monitor your mesh network in real-time via a self-contained web page. Access at http://192.168.4.1/status when connected to the device hotspot.

• Device info — name, battery, GPS status, satellites, uptime
• LoRa status — region, broadcast interval, relay mode
• Peer table — name, distance, last seen, signal strength (RSSI/SNR), battery
• Auto-refreshes every 5 seconds
• Works offline — no external dependencies

Full device configuration via web browser — no BLE or phone app required. Access at http://192.168.4.1/config when connected to the device hotspot.

• Device name, speed/elevation units, screen timeout, theme
• LoRa region (EU868/US915/AU915), broadcast interval
• Relay mode toggle
• Blocked when lockdown mode is enabled
• Useful for initial setup or when BLE isn't available

After saving settings with hotspot enabled, the device displays a QR code on the OLED screen. Scan with your phone camera to automatically join the device WiFi — no typing passwords.

• Displays after "Saved!" confirmation when hotspot is on
• Contains WiFi credentials in standard format
• Screen stays on indefinitely (ignores timeout)
• Press button to dismiss and return to settings
