Local-first<br>Your races stay on your device

80 tracks<br>Every official race, pre-loaded

A racing HUD built for the apex

A 270° neon tachometer with a redline band and shift-light bar that tells you exactly when to upshift, giant gear and speed readouts, segmented throttle/brake/clutch/steering bars, a friction-circle G-force ball, and a live best-lap delta.

Every official track, built in

All 80 official races ship pre-loaded — each with its real route already drawn on the map, with discipline, length and lap count. Drive an event and your attempts attach to the right track automatically; improvise and it's logged as a custom track.

A race log that remembers every lap

Open the Log tab and drill from a track, to a race, to a single lap, to one corner. Lap times and deltas, sector and corner splits, top speed, and whether you crossed the finish line or bailed. Car-aware too — the same track in different cars keeps separate records, with per-car personal bests.

See where you lose time

The track map traces your route from world position and colours it by speed — or by time gained and lost versus your best lap — so you can see exactly which corner is costing you. Works for circuits and point-to-point street races alike.

Replay any lap. Race your ghosts.

Play back any lap as an animated replay over the map, or run two attempts as a time-synced ghost race with a timing tower and live ticking splits. Then export the battle as a video clip and share it.

Every input on one scope

A scrolling oscilloscope plots throttle, brake, RPM, speed, steering and slip together — plus per-corner tire temperatures, slip ratio and angle, suspension travel and drivetrain load. The full picture of what your car is doing.

// Privacy

Your races stay yours.

Apex Copilot is local-first. The telemetry stream never leaves your network, and your race log is stored only on your device — no cloud, no account, no selling your data.

Every recorded lap lives on your device, in the app's storage.

The only network the app listens to is your own Wi-Fi, inbound from Forza.

Aggregate usage analytics (EU-hosted) help fix bugs — not tied to your identity, no ad tracking, no third-party advertisers.

Read the full privacy policy

Is it really free?<br>Yes — the entire app, every feature, no paywalls, no subscriptions, no ads. There's nothing to buy.

Which game does it work with?<br>The Forza Horizon series, using the game's built-in “Data Out” telemetry feature (Settings ▸ HUD and Gameplay ▸ Data Out, on Xbox or PC). The live HUD, race log and analysis work with the Data Out stream across Forza Horizon 4, 5 and 6; the pre-loaded track catalog and route maps are tuned for Forza Horizon 6.

Do I need a console connected to try it?<br>No. A built-in demo mode drives a car around a circuit so the whole app is alive — gauges, map, replays and all — before you connect anything.

Does it need an account or the internet?<br>Neither to run. It listens on your local Wi-Fi for Forza's stream; your race data is stored on your device. The only outbound traffic is limited, aggregate usage analytics that aren't tied to your identity.

Is this an official Forza app?<br>No. Apex Copilot is an unofficial companion and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Microsoft, Turn 10 Studios, or Playground Games.

What devices does it run on?<br>iPhone and iPad running iOS / iPadOS 17 or later.

Put a race engineer on your desk.

Free. No account. No ads. Just live data from your console or PC on a second screen.
