What's New in LeadNav GPS

6.47.1

September 3, 2026

LEADNAV 6.47.1 MAP STORAGE CLEANUP NOW ASKS FIRST • 6.47 ran its map storage cleanup silently at launch. On heavily used devices that could lock the map for several minutes with no explanation, and it could repeat. Fixed. • The app now asks before cleaning: a card explains what it found and you tap Start Cleanup or Later. The offer only appears while you are parked, not navigating, and not recording. Progress and the amount reclaimed are shown on screen. • Deleting a saved map or clearing a map cache in Settings > Map now reclaims leftover data right then, behind a progress card, so the buildup cannot return. • Your saved offline maps are never touched. Map areas you viewed online but never saved reload the next time you visit them. • Saved-area names on the Download screen no longer disappear while another area downloads. Only the area currently downloading hides its label, so incomplete areas stay easy to spot. • Waypoint Mic (Beta) now listens in US English on every device. 6.47 used the iPad's language setting, so an iPad set up in Spanish listened in Spanish. Waypoint Mic understands English only for now; Spanish is planned. You can always type a name instead. • New in Settings > Voice Prompts: an Offline Speech Pack row. Offline speech in any app needs Apple's on-device English speech pack. On iOS 26 and later the row shows whether that pack is on this device and downloads it for you with progress. On older iOS the row opens the setup guide. • If Waypoint Mic is on and that file is missing, the app now tells you, once, when you turn the switch on or open the prerunner bar while parked, with a Download button right there (iOS 26 and later). The switch is never changed for you. • The Audio Input Troubleshooting guide is one tap away from Settings > Voice Prompts and the Mic Access alert. EVERYTHING FROM 6.47 IS INCLUDED FASTER MAPS: MAJOR STORAGE FIX • Fixed a long-standing storage issue: leftover offline map data built up over months of saving and deleting maps. Symptoms included minutes-long freezes when switching map types, slow map loading, and slow saved-area deletes. NEW: WIRELESS BUTTONS (Pro) • Pair wireless remote buttons in Settings > Buttons. One press drops a waypoint with the mic live, the next press saves it. A button can instead start and stop track recording. Part of our patent-pending prerunning system. NEW: POCKET PRERUNNER ON IPHONE (Pro) • The prerunner bar comes to iPhone as a slide-out. Run a route, pull the PRERUNNER tab: waypoint dropper plus a wipe-safe screen lock. NEW: WAYPOINT MIC (Pro, Beta) • Hands-free voice notes at speed, straight through your helmet comms. Drop a waypoint from the prerunner bar or a button and just talk. • Headset setup, do this once: Cardo users turn Intelligent Noise Block OFF (Cardo app, Advanced audio settings), it eats the first word of every note. Raise mic sensitivity one notch. Set phone-call volume high: the confirmation tones ride the call link. For offline use, enable iOS Dictation once in Settings > General > Keyboard. PRERUNNING SUITE (Pro) • Off Route Waypoints and Hotline Alerts: drops beyond the race line save at their true position and guide you off the line and back. • Edit at speed: tap any waypoint in run mode to edit or delete it. • Tap a track line on the map to select it, then convert it to a route or delete it. NAVIGATION AND FIXES • Direction-of-travel arrows on route lines. • Coming back to the course from a hotline now locks to where you rejoin, not miles behind. • External GPS antenna recovery if the antenna stream dies mid-run. • Landscape iPads no longer swing the map when you stop. • Waypoint save is instant and the confirm tone plays reliably over Bluetooth headsets. • Max zoom can no longer stick at 16 until relaunch.

Editing option

I wish while you’re editing, that instead of getting a confirmation notification for each edit, that you could say don’t ask for the next five minutes.

Off-road racing

This application is a game changer and we have been using it for many years in Off-road Racing. Being able to drop a waypoint and voice text what we want it to say makes pre-running way more effective while allowing us to race faster, knowing that we have detailed Way points talking to us along the entire course!

The One and Only

Continues to be an exceptional app race after race in Baja.

Simple & Powerful

This platform has been my go-to for years now. Plenty of tutorials that show how to create routes on Google Earth, convert those routes, and import them into LeadNav. You get a lot for the basic app, with plenty of added conveniences with the upgraded versions that make route editing fast.
