Amplify and simplify your hiking and photo experiences with Summit Selfy GPS! Forgot to carry your handwritten cardboard sign to the top of the summit with you? Summit Selfy has you covered. Now you can just track the hike, take some pictures, and Summit Selfy will automatically put them together. Open a photo either on the trek or back at home, pick your favorite of our many sign styles which includes a cardboard one, and the elevation of the photo is automatically put on the sign for you. Pinch and scale the sign, move it to the best position for the scenery, then save the combination to your photos or share it directly to social media. Leave no trace... even when you're hiking with the big dogs! If you hike with pets, you will love our pet waste marker feature. Simply tap the poop emoji button where you bag up and stash your pet waste, and Summit Selfy GPS will remind you to pick it up on the return leg of your hike. No more forgetting and feeling terrible when you remember as you're driving home. Summit Selfy GPS is also a great hike tracking app. Simple to use mapping of topography or satellite includes most major trails so you can follow the trail even when the physical trail is not so apparent. The trip report shows you all the basic stats and graphs of your current hike and those stats move to the track pages when you complete a hike for review when you get back home. - Privacy Policy: https://upallnitesoftware.com/summitselfy/privacypolicy - Terms of use: https://upallnitesoftware.com/summitselfy/eula

Plan a route with every stop in the right order — then look down the street before you ever drive it. GPS Maps turns a list of places into one efficient trip. Drop in your stops, let the planner reorder them, and follow spoken turn-by-turn directions from one to the next. Each stop checks itself off as you arrive, so you never touch the phone while you're driving. PLAN A TRIP WITH MULTIPLE STOPS • Add stops from search, straight off the map, or from your saved places • Tap Optimize and the app reorders them into the shortest trip • Drag any stop to override the order yourself • Distance and time for every leg and for the whole trip • Stops check off automatically when you arrive • Finished trips are kept in your history SEE THE STREET BEFORE YOU GO • Real ground-level photos taken along your route • Full 360° panoramas — drag to look around as if you were standing there • Preview a whole route photo by photo before you commit to it • Press and hold anywhere on the map to look around that spot • Coverage is community-contributed, so it is richest in cities and thinner on rural roads TURN-BY-TURN DIRECTIONS • Spoken guidance before every turn, twice: early, then right at the turn • Automatic rerouting when you leave the route • Car, motorbike and walking modes • Live trip progress on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island • Distances in kilometers or miles FIND PLACES WORTH THE DETOUR • Nearby landmarks with photos and background, drawn from open encyclopedia data • One-tap categories: restaurants, cafés, gas, parking, hotels, pharmacies, ATMs, hospitals and more • Search by voice — in any of the 17 languages the app speaks • Save a place now, add it to a trip later THE MAP ITSELF • Standard, satellite, hybrid and 3D views • Live traffic layer • 3D buildings • Map rotates with your heading SPEAKS YOUR LANGUAGE English, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Hindi, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil and Portugal), French, Arabic, Bengali, Russian, German, Japanese, Turkish, Korean, Indonesian and Vietnamese — interface, spoken directions and voice search.
