Meet Wayward: An app for independent travelers and adventure travel organizers, now available for iOS and Android devices. Free to download and just as easy to use, so adventurers can spend less time on their phone and more time exploring the world, Wayward requires no fancy hardware or add-ons: just a smart phone and a passion for adventure. Wayward is ultra-efficient, running smoothly in the background without draining your battery. It uses very little data and works just as well without cell reception, so even when you go off the grid, you aren’t left off the map. Wayward lets you save notes along the way, to remember exactly where you got that flat tire or found a perfect waterfall. Adventurers can easily share LIVE route map, so friends and family back home can follow along. Wayward is simple and

intuitive: track with one tap, toss the phone in your backpack, and get back to the adventure.For event organizers, Wayward lets you track all participants on one map. From a cross-country bike race to just an epic neighborhood scavenger hunt, it affords organizers and their audience a bird’s eye view of every participant’s route, all tracked on one simple, shareable map. It’s easy to get participants signed up, organized, and easy to share the live tracking of every event. This is also an easy and affordable way for organizers to run socially distanced events, while still capturing all the excitement on a single map for spectators to follow along at home. The app has been used to track trips by bike, kayak, motorcycle, Cessna, foot, and any other way to get around, on nearly every corner of the globe, from Southeast Asia to South America to South Brooklyn.
