What’s New in Voyager Pro v3.0.1

Built-In Points of Interest (POIs)

These POIs work with your current maps and provide quick access to essential information while riding.

  • Fuel stations
  • Food
  • Lodging
  • Parking

POIs help riders make faster decisions during a ride without switching devices or leaving the map view.

Buddy Tracking & Buddy Tails Improvements

This update improves behavior affecting Buddy Tracking and Buddy Tails, enhancing:

  • Visibility of rider direction
  • Understanding of group movement
  • Overall group-ride awareness

Buddy Tails draws a short trail behind each rider, making it easier to understand where everyone has been and how the group is moving.

---

Route & Track Management Improvements

A new Select / Deselect All option allows riders to quickly manage large libraries of routes and tracks, reducing time spent organizing files before or during a ride.

---

New Map Orientation: Track-Up / Flat Offset

A new map view option keeps your position lower on the screen, increasing forward visibility and aligning the map with your direction of travel. This can make following a track or route feel more natural, especially in technical terrain.

Voyager Pro v3.0.1 Compatibility

  • Compatible with Voyager Pro devices only
  • Not compatible with legacy Voyager or other GPS units

Buddy features include: Buddy Tracking, Buddy Beacon, Buddy Navigation, Buddy Tails, and Buddy Intercom.

Buddy Tracking Features Overview

Voyager Pro includes a suite of Buddy features designed to help riders stay aware of their group’s location, movement, and communication during a ride.

Buddy Tracking

Displays nearby buddies on the map in real time, showing relative position during group rides.

Buddy Beacon

Allows a rider’s location to be broadcast so others can view them on the map, even if they are not navigating the same route.

Buddy Navigation

Enables riders to navigate directly to a buddy’s shared location, helping regroup when riders become separated. A straight line is drawn between you and the selected buddy.

Buddy Tails

Draws a short trail behind each buddy, making it easier to understand recent movement, direction of travel, and group flow at a glance.

Polaris Ride Command Integration

Voyager Pro Buddy Tracking features are compatible with vehicles equipped with Polaris Ride Command, allowing Polaris riders to share locations and appear alongside Voyager Pro users on the map screen.

Buddy Intercom (Bluetooth Hub)

Voyager Pro can act as a Bluetooth hub, connecting up to two intercom headsets and two smartphones. A designated rider can manage and route intercom audio and music playback to both headsets through Voyager Pro.

Buddy Lock

Keeps your riding group contained within the visible map area, making it easier to monitor everyone’s position without constant manual panning.
