Architecture

The app consists of three main components:

• Backend: REST API for directions, search, gas stations, speed cameras, incidents, auth, and WebSocket Warning Manager
• React Native: UI, Mapbox integration, and navigation state management
• Native Modules: Background GPS tracking, WebSocket communication, and TTS handling (/ios and /android directories)

For detailed information about native module integration and workflow, see the workflow.

Features

• Speed Camera Warnings: Real-time alerts with speed limit information based on GPS location
• Turn-by-Turn Navigation: Background GPS tracking with TTS instructions and route optimization
• Traffic Data: Live incident warnings and hazard notifications via WebSocket
• Gas Station Finder: Real-time fuel prices and station information
• Location Search: Autocomplete search with detailed location information
• Premium Paywall: RevenueCat integration for subscription management
• Customizable Settings: Map style configuration, navigation type exclusions, and map layer filtering
• Background Services: Native modules for continuous GPS tracking and WebSocket communication
