Bluelane is an iPhone route recorder that lets users share live location and route information through a browser link. Send the link by text, chat, or email; followers can open it on phones, tablets, or computers without an app or account. Anyone who has the link can view the route, including if it is forwarded, and stopping a recording does not revoke access. Recording works offline, while live updates resume after the iPhone reconnects. Bluelane keeps route history so users can revisit trips and see route, distance, and time, and it supports GPX import and export. Apple Watch users can start, stop, and share a route and view distance, time, and viewers. The app is free, with in-app purchases available; the Annual Pro Subscription is 47.99 USD per year, billed annually. Its terms grant access for personal, non-commercial use. The privacy policy says it collects route location updates, support contact information, and usage and device details.
