Wander: Photo Walk Journal

Wander 1.9 is about getting a Wander out of the app: as a video, as a card, as the route you actually recorded. It also has a new icon. NEW • Share your Wander as a video. Pick Video in the share sheet and your route plays back on the card, the dot traveling it the way it does in the app. With the elevation card showing, a second dot rides the curve in step with the first. Save it, send it in Messages, or post it anywhere that takes a video. • Share either route. On a Wander drawn from a recorded workout, the share image can draw the route between your photos instead of the recording. Tap the runner in the share settings to switch, and the distance and elevation follow whichever one you picked. Pick the recording and the card draws all of it, including the walk before your first photo and after your last. • A bigger photo on the map. Tap a stop and the photo that pops up can be four sizes now, up to the full width of the map. Pick one in Settings, under Map. At the larger sizes Wander draws a sharper copy of the photo, and the bubble shifts to stay on screen without letting go of its pin. • Choose photos from one album. The photo picker can be pointed at a single album, and every tab then works inside it: an album and a date range, or an album and a workout. Your albums, shared albums and Favorites are all listed, each with its photo count. • A new icon. The folded map and its route, drawn more simply. The launch screen is now that icon on a route of its own, fading into the app rather than cutting to it, and the badge on a share card is the new icon too. IMPROVED • A card you save to Photos keeps the image Wander drew, rather than a copy re-encoded on the way in, and it arrives named Wander. • An iCloud sync problem now names its cause instead of ending in a code. One case matters more than the rest: an iCloud account with no space left reports itself in exactly the shape Wander used to discard, so that message could never reach anyone who needed it. • The remaining buttons throughout the app are in the same Liquid Glass as the rest of iOS 26. FIXED • Changing an anchor waypoint's role and its date in one tap no longer erases the date. • Any photo edit on a Wander with a dated Start or End waypoint keeps those dates. • Canceling Use Workout Route partway leaves the Wander exactly as it was. • A journey that crossed time zones westward is drawn in the order you traveled. • The On This Day widget stops showing today's anniversary on the days after it. • Back Up Now, Save a Copy and Erase All Data no longer do nothing quietly while an automatic backup is running. • Place detail, Smart Folder training and emptying the trash are all far lighter on memory in a large library. Private by design: no account, no ads, no tracking. Your Logbook syncs through your own iCloud, not our servers. Go Wander.
