ONE ROAD · THREE MOMENTS

A journey never starts with one button.

Thinking about the next view, stopping for something unexpected, looking through photos at home — it all belongs to the same journey. MichiLoop keeps those moments in order on one road.

  1. BEFORE THE ROAD

    Prepare

    Turn the next view into a plan you can ride.

    Build a road route from a start, destination and stops. Keep dates, breaks, weather and preparation together before departure.

    • One-day plans and three saved items are free
    • Road and ferry in one itinerary
    • Basic GPX import and export

    Multi-day, per-leg, KML/map-link and fourth-or-later saves require MichiLoop Plus

    Plan detail with a map, distance, duration and preparation

  2. ON THE ROAD

    Ride

    Keep the road and every reason you stopped.

    Record travelled route and distance with GPS. Switch explicitly to walking, ferry, rail or another mode without breaking the journey timeline. Always stop somewhere safe before using the app.

    • Unlimited ride logging
    • Live Activity, widgets and Controls
    • Photos, up-to-60-second video and voice notes

  3. AFTER THE RIDE

    Keep

    Turn a row of figures into a journey journal.

    Bring photos, video, voice, places and honest words to the route you travelled. Return through replay, covers and your Footprint map.

    • Journey and Everyday journals
    • Trip costs, expenses and on-device receipt OCR
    • Basic replay, covers, sharing and data export

    Advanced colour, text, drawing and route-information finishing requires Creator Pack or Plus

THE WHOLE TRAVEL DESK

Keep the time around the journey, too.

Capture, stop, spend, maintain. The small things before and after a road trip stay in the same context as the journey itself.

EVERYDAY JOURNALTRIPS / DAYS

Keep the days between journeys.

A local view or a note after maintenance belongs in Everyday. It stays separate from journey journals while sharing the same Journal tab.

SPOT BOOKUP TO 5

Remember a place with its photos.

Save parking, breaks, scenery, food, hot springs and more on a map. Each Spot keeps up to five photos, with the first as its cover.

Spot Book with a map, categories and photos
GARAGE1 FREE

Let every vehicle build its own history.

Revisit photos, journals, travelled distance, albums, maintenance history and what is due next. One vehicle is free.

TRIP DETAILSON DEVICE

Meals, expenses and walking segments.

Review budgets, fuel and meal expenses, receipts read on-device, and steps measured only during a walking segment you explicitly started.

Ferries stay on the route

Road and sea remain separate, so a ferry crossing never inflates driving distance.

Compare plan and reality

See the intended road, travelled route and each movement mode on the map and timeline.

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT

Your journey starts as yours.

There is no separate account, advertising or third-party tracking. Journals and media stay on-device and sync to your private CloudKit area when iCloud is available.

  • MichiLoop does not store journals or media on its own server
  • Expenses, receipt images and walking metrics currently stay on this device
  • Sharing and export happen only when you explicitly choose content and a destination

RIDE SAFELY

Always stop somewhere safe before using the app.

MichiLoop does not replace dedicated navigation, emergency services or driving-safety assistance. Check road access, conditions, weather, opening hours and ferry information with official sources before departure.

YOUR ROAD, KEPT TOGETHER

Plan the next road. Keep the day as a story.

Start with one weekend road. No separate account is required.
