You can record your summit successes directly on your smartphone! With the SummitLynx app you can record your mountain tours, bike tours, climbing tours and skiing tours just like in a summit or tour book. The digital hiking maps in the app facilitate orientation in the mountains.
High up on the mountain or along gentle landscapes - record your sportive activities in the app at 400 000 worldwide destinations altogether. If you want, you can share these successes with your friends - directly via the app or via Facebook and Twitter. At the same time, you collect points for hiking badges and take part in competitions and campaigns. Thus, you will be even more motivated to explore nature and reach your goals.
Especially useful: The emergency function mySOS. Enter a contact person who will receive a text message in case you are not back from your hike at the agreed time. Thanks to GPS tracking the mountain rescue service can find you more easily. Ideal for those, who want to increase their safety in the mountains or who are often out and about on their own.

- New navigation icons
- Push notifications for nearby locations
- New app icon
- As always some improvements and bug fixes
I first found about this app when found information on the walking map of Saalbach. With a few walking holidays under my belt and badges collected from other areas in Austria, it was good to see the method of collecting the points now done electronically, rather than collecting stamps a on bit of paper that was very tatty after a week. SummitLynx have responded to emails within 24 hours; to resolve a query for myself and a failed check in for a friend. I love the emergency information held on the app should the worst happen and there is the need to contact help, your current longitude and latitude co ordinates are available there is even a button to call for help. Having not tested this, I hope it brings up a second box checking you really want to connect to the emergency services.
