Wayfindr is a conversational route planner designed for walking, hiking, and trail running in the UK. It allows users to describe their desired route in plain English, and the app generates it across footpaths, bridleways, and trails.
You can ask Wayfindr for a route by specifying details like distance, starting point, and preferences such as 'less climbing' or 'a pub at the end'. The app then builds the route, calculates distance, climb, and estimated time without requiring manual waypoint dragging.
Yes, Wayfindr supports offline navigation. You can cache the detailed topographic map before you leave and follow your route using a live GPS dot, with gentle alerts if you stray. This ensures you can navigate even when mobile signal is unavailable.
If a generated route isn't quite right, you can continue chatting with Wayfindr to make changes. You can ask for a shorter route, less climbing, a different start, or a specific finish point, and Wayfindr will redraw the route in real-time.
