Maps & Location

Does PeerMesh use location sharing?

Yes, location sharing is part of PeerMesh, but it should be used intentionally with people you trust and groups you choose to participate in.

Shared Trails let group members share movement paths so the group can better understand routes and movement during activities.

What is Trail Replay?

Trail Replay helps review movement history after an activity, making it easier to understand where the group moved.

Connectivity & Privacy

Does PeerMesh require internet?

Internet improves synchronization and reach. PeerMesh is also designed with nearby communication and real-world coordination in mind.

Is PeerMesh an emergency service?
