The motorcycle navigation app for group rides

Set voice navigation to All, Alerts only or Off. In All mode you hear maneuver prompts such as "In 300 meters, turn right, then enter the roundabout". Alerts only, the default, skips maneuver prompts but still speaks off-route, arrival and group alerts. Prompts are spoken in English or Turkish, following the app language.

Voice navigation is a separate setting from the group’s voice channel. If you don’t want turn prompts cutting into the conversation, keep only the alerts on.

Take a wrong turn and you hear "You left the route. Guiding you back." while the app works out a way back to your planned route. Once you rejoin it you hear "You are back on the route." and motorcycle navigation carries on from there.

You don’t have to unlock your phone. The Lock Screen and the Dynamic Island show the next maneuver, the next stop and your arrival estimate. Connect to a CarPlay-enabled motorcycle display and the same map and directions appear there; Clump runs on CarPlay as a navigation app.

The spread strip lines the convoy up along the route on a single bar, with the Captain at the front and the Sweep at the back. You can see how stretched out the group is from that one bar, without studying the map.

When the gap between the front rider and the last rider passes a set threshold, a "someone fell behind" alert goes out. The threshold is 3 km by default and can be set from 0.5 km to 20 km when you plan the route. The alert goes to the Captain and the Sweep, or to the ride owner if there is no Captain. A separate alert tells you when a rider loses connection.

Fast picks the quickest route. Balanced chooses among routes that take at most 15 percent longer than the fastest one. Curvy favors the twistiest of the routes found. You can avoid toll roads and motorways, each with its own switch.

A group moves more slowly than a solo rider. Relaxed pace multiplies the map’s travel time by 1.30 and Normal by 1.15, while Fast uses it as it is, so arrival times reflect how fast a group really moves.

Enter your group’s shortest range; the default is 180 km. If a section without a fuel stop is longer than 0.9 times that range, you get a warning. A break reminder also flags stretches longer than 90, 120 or 150 minutes without a stop.

The plan shows the weather along the route. During the ride, if rain is likely on the next half hour of the route, you get an alert: "Put on rain gear at the next stop."

In large groups, push to talk keeps the channel calm: your voice only goes out while you hold the button. In small groups an open mic feels like a normal conversation, and you mute whenever you like. You can also have your mic switch off automatically during breaks.

If talking is hard, send a ready-made quick message with one tap: Need fuel, Break, Wait, Follow me or Hazard. Mark hazards such as an accident, roadworks, a pothole or a dangerous bend as road reports to warn the riders behind you.

In an emergency, tap SOS and a 3-second countdown starts. Then your location goes to everyone in the group as a high-priority notification and a spoken announcement, and family with your tracking link open see a red alert.

If the ride owner loses connection for 3 minutes, ride authority passes temporarily to an online Captain, or to the Sweep if there is no Captain. The stand-in can skip stops, start a break and finish the ride. Authority returns to the owner as soon as they reconnect.

Riding in a staggered formation within one lane is a common rule for groups. Leave at least 2 seconds to the rider directly ahead and 1 second to the rider beside you in the stagger, and switch to single file on bends and rough roads. The Captain rides at the pace of the newest rider.

If the route plan has a break stop, the break starts on its own once most of the group arrives, and can be cancelled in the first 20 seconds. At an unplanned stop the app never starts a break by itself; after 5 minutes the person in charge only gets a "Take a break?" suggestion.

For larger groups, breaks shorter than 15 minutes rarely work out. Allowing 20 to 30 minutes gives everyone time to refuel, rest and regroup.

Your position is hidden around the route start, the destination and your first location of the ride, and the route line is cut there too. The privacy zone is 1 km by default; choose 500 m, 2 km or off when you share. You can hide your speed as well. The page shows your initials instead of your profile photo, and other riders never appear.

The link lasts up to 24 hours and closes 30 minutes after the ride ends. Stop sharing or renew the link at any time. If you send an SOS, a red alert appears on the tracking page.

Send quick messages, road reports and SOS from the CarPlay menu with one tap. If your own SOS is active, the first option in the menu is to cancel it. During a group break the display shows something like "Break · Departure 13:40 · 12 min", with an alert 5 minutes before it’s time to leave.

Voice prompts follow CarPlay’s audio preferences. If the car is playing other audio, nothing is spoken, but on-screen directions carry on.

Joining can be open or approval-based; with approval, admins and moderators handle requests. Add rules such as staggered formation, full gear or no alcohol. In Explore you can find motorcycle groups by city and interest and follow them without joining, which makes Clump a handy ride with friends app for finding new riding partners too.
