What's New in TrackGuide
12.0.0
June 10, 2026
This new release focuses entirely on the watch app. In addition to being completely rewritten using the latest technologies, it also offers the ability to save your walk as a workout in the 'Fitness' app, helping to fill your training rings. The saved session includes—alongside heart rate and calorie measurements—a track of the route covered. To create sessions, simply turn on a switch in the walk details screen. Recording then begins as soon as the guidance screen is opened. If you return to the details screen during the walk, the recording is paused. If you return from there to the guidance screen, recording resumes. If you go back from the details screen to the list of walks, the recording stops. Recording also stops if you turn the switch off again. Additionally, several issues that could cause the app to crash during guidance have been resolved. These adjustments have also been implemented in the iPhone app.
