Track detection and the coach briefing
Last updated 8 days ago
LapperSnapper knows where you are. When you arrive at a circuit and start a session, the app matches your GPS position against its track database and sets everything up for you.
What track detection does
- Names the session after the circuit automatically.
- Uses the real start/finish line for lap detection, so lap times are consistent with the timing board.
- Connects the session to your history at that track, powering personal bests and progression.
No setup is required at known circuits. If you're somewhere the app doesn't recognise — a brand-new track or a temporary layout — it still records and detects laps from your driving.
The coach briefing
When the track is recognised and you have history there, the briefing tells you — on screen and by voice — the one thing most worth working on: the corner where you've been losing the most time, and how much is on the table there.
It turns your previous sessions into a plan for this one: instead of just driving laps, you go out with a target. During the session, the HUD keeps the focus corner in view.
