See where you are on the elevation profile The route profile now marks your live position, on the hike overview, while you record, and in the planner — so you can see the climb still ahead at a glance. Waypoints you can read at a glance Waypoints grow as you zoom in and show their names right on the map, so you no longer have to tap a pin to find out what it is. Turning them on is remembered too — switch tabs or restart the app and they're still there. A print queue that keeps up Print maps now show how many sheets are rendering and how far through a multi-page sheet you are, and a finished map appears on its own — no need to pull to refresh. Better sharing The share card opens full screen with a clear title, and Share Link now opens the system share sheet as well as copying the link. Tidy up your activity Clear your Recent Activity list whenever you like. Also fixed • Importing a GPX file with a lot of waypoints could hang the app. • Resuming a recording at launch now opens the recording page, instead of leaving you on the home screen.

Recording

Would be far better to have just 1 button to start your recording. This is the first app where by you need to tap 2 or 3 different buttons to record. A few time I thought I was recording a track only to find I wasn’t.

CarPlay rocks

Adding OSM maps to CarPlay is a game changer! Thanks!

Awesome App

I’m fairly new to this App but I absolutely love it!! It’s a Awesome App, so easy to use and follow, with free offline maps what’s not to love

Fantastic App.

At 68yo I thought learning this app would be a bit daunting but after watching a couple of seminars I needn’t have. Paul and Peter’s explanation of this comprehensive application makes it really easy to use. A truly great app. Looking forward to my hiking trip to Scotland next week even more now. 75 trails on Arran alone.

Used for a year and I like it

I tried HiiKER as an alternative to AllTrails and have to say I do like it.
I found it fairly easy to use, like the map options and editability of routes.
I don’t think it has as many routes saved as AT but think it will improve over time.
