We can't do this yet, but I just wanted to check that it will be possible to edit walks after you have done them, and before sharing them with other people? Every walk I do needs some editing, where I made a mistake, found a blocked path and retraced or diverted to avoid cattle etc. At the moment, I record on Outdooractive and download to GPX Studio to edit, then upload the edited gpx file back into Outdooractive before making it public. It would be easier if you could do all that within the same app.

This time it didn't stop recording. The only confusing part was at the end. I saved it and made some comments, but I can't see those now. I can see it under Travelled as an unnamed activity, although that doesn't show the recorded time, nor does it show the review or comments. When I press on Explore and see a long list of walks, the original plan is there, but not the recorded walk.

Will it be possible to download the maps for a saved walk, so that you can navigate when you have no signal? (As you can on Outdooractive or OS Maps)

I didn't mean to post the last comments anonymously. As I followed the link from the app, I assumed it would know who I am. These multiple logins can be confusing. Steve Melia

This is looking better than I expected at this stage, but there is clearly still work to do. I created three routes, by importing gpx files created on Outdooractive. That worked fine. I then tried following one, recording it as an Activity. A few comments: 1) The recording stopped at one point. I don't know why. I didn't press stop, but I was switching between apps, using the phone for different things during the walk. I spotted the problem, started re-recording, so the recorded track now has a straight line in it. It would need to be edited. 2) I was able to use it for navigation, although, one serious limitation, at the moment, is that you cannot see what lies underneath the blue line (route) or purple line (activity). Am I on a footpath? Very important. On OS Maps and Outdooractive, you can see what is underneath. 3) I cannot seem to access, edit or download the Activity. Is that something which will be added later? 4) It uses a lot of battery power. I only looked at the screen for a few short periods but it used 23% of my battery over the 8 hours it was running (this was a 17-mile walk) 5) It didn't seem possible to pause the recording, so you have to leave it running during longer stops. This adds to the battery problem and can produce bizarre patterns on the gpx file when you stop, but the gps satellite thinks you are moving.
