About this app

Record outdoor activities: designed for hiking

Features

Direct GPX import. Last imported route auto sets to "Follow". Offline topo maps specific to the route load for navigation.

Optional
Contributing members may import/save from HAZ & Route Cloud™ with Route Editor™ to review, edit, share, post, plan, download & archive. Route Editor™ is an online tool to create, edit & store gps route files ( tracks & waypoints/poi)

Ratings and reviews

EDIT: I thought waypoint announce was not working but it turned out to be a problem with my gpx file, so my apologies to the developer there. It would be even better if there was an option to edit the timing/distance of the wayoint announcement. Personally I do not want the 'approaching' or 'passed in a flash' messages. I just need it to read the waypoint when I am at that location.

This used to be an excellent app for tracking hikes, but the newest version tracks you even with the app closed and runs your phone battery down very quickly. Hope that this is corrected soon as otherwise this is the best app I have used to keeping stats while hiking.

Been a user for about 3 years and still learning. This app gives and gives. Helpful, loaded with info and member driven.
