Clear live context
Useful at a glance. Honest about age.
Balloon position, speed, altitude and course sit beside fix age and a clear live, relayed, stale or unknown state. No certainty is implied.
Offline-first balloon coordination
Set an intended landing area, share the balloon’s latest position, and help every chaser choose the road guidance they need — even when mobile coverage comes and goes.
Development build for controlled iOS and Android testing.
From setup to retrieve
The map is the setup surface. Move around it, place an approximate landing area, choose its radius, then share one short private code with the chase crew.
Tap the map or reuse a previous area. Search is there when planning needs it.
Create an account-free flight and share its short code or QR invitation.
Keep the balloon in view and choose guidance to it or to the intended rendezvous.
Clear live context
Balloon position, speed, altitude and course sit beside fix age and a clear live, relayed, stale or unknown state. No certainty is implied.
Intended landing areas remain approximate. The crew still verifies road access, landowner permission and present conditions.
Review the balloon track, chase route, recorded wind and other available craft positions as one time-aligned flight.
Built for imperfect information
Weather, wind, airspace, altitude and landing predictions need a visible source, timestamp, units and limitations. Drivers are routed to road-accessible rendezvous points, never blindly to a coordinate.
Closed testing
Balloon Crumbs is in active development for controlled testers. It is not an emergency service, certified navigation product or source of authoritative flight information.
