iBeacon Car Detection

iBeacon Car Detection adds the following great improvements to Tour:

With an iBeacon, Tour detects if you’re in your car or not. Once you exit your car it doesn’t need any additional battery in order to detect if you start driving again. Simply keep recording on – always!
With car detection, Tour only tracks mileage if you’re using your car and not if you’re using any other transport (for example if you’re driving to lunch with your colleague or if you take the Bus during the day).
As soon as Tour supports multiple cars (we’re working on it), it will track mileage for the right car automatically.

What is an iBeacon?

An iBeacon is a small hardware which communicates with your iPhone using Bluetooth LE. iBeacons are available from different vendors. For car detection in Tour, we’ve developed our own nice iBeacons. They have a battery (lasts about 2 y) and you can simply put them anywhere in your car, no installation needed.

Where can I buy an iBeacon?

You can order Tour iBeacons in our Online Stop. We’re currently only shipping with the EU. Please let us know if you’d like to purchase from outside the EU, we’ll work something out.

Notifications

Tour notifies you as soon as a new trip was started or finished. This let’s you easily verify your odometer and categorise your new trip, even from the lock-screen.
