Great up to date data

Accurate data thx

Great app

It’s a great app. I wish the tread 2 can export “activities” not just routes so you don’t see millions of little flags along the route when reviewing track logs on the explore website.

Tread overland xl

Excellent

Battery killer

Ate 25% of my battery today whilst riding with my XT2

Dozens of tracks lost

Horrible. Many of my tracks disappeared from the map/app, and since it syncs with the GPS it also deleted them from the Zumo. Weeks of motorcycle trips completely gone.

This is due to bugs in the app as now I see several “Unknown Error” entries in the Collections when I do a Select and Edit”.
