Designed for Drivers

TorqueTrailPulse is built for:

• Car enthusiasts

• Track-day practice (non-competitive use)

• Smoothness monitoring on long drives

• Curious drivers who want deeper insight into their driving patterns

The interface is optimized for clarity and safety. Interactions are kept minimal while driving, and detailed analysis is available when stopped.

Important Notes

• Telemetry accuracy depends on device sensors and mounting position.

• Road conditions, vehicle suspension, and phone placement affect readings.

• Continuous GPS and motion tracking may increase battery consumption.

• TorqueTrailPulse is not a navigation app and does not replace your vehicle’s instrumentation.

Permissions Explained

TorqueTrailPulse requests access to:

• Location — to calculate speed and distance

• Motion & Fitness — to estimate acceleration, braking, and smoothness

• Notifications (optional) — to show run status

These are used only to provide core app functionality.
