What is Velox?
O velox não chuta seu tempo de percurso. Ele calcula com base na sua velocidade média real, vinda do strava ou preenchida por você. Isso deixa a previsão muito mais precisa do que qualquer velocidade genérica de outros apps. Ele monta a rota usando a google maps api e adiciona dados que o ciclista realmente precisa. O app oferece rotas alternativas, como mais rápida, menos subidas ou mais longa. É um planejador de rotas feito para o seu ritmo, não para o ritmo de todo mundo.
Problem
