Routes vs. Tracks

#1 · 17.04.2020, 00:43

Hi, I am using Google maps to create a route, then loading the URL into the WebApp. When I import them onto my iPad, some are saved as Routes and some are saved as Tracks. Why is that?

Hi Brad,

It depends how you save it when you do the import from the Import Queue in the app. If you use the 'Save the blue line as Track' button, it will save the route as a track. If you choose the regular 'Save' button in the upper toolbar it will save the magenta line as route.

Here's more info on this: https://scenic.app/knowledge-base/offroad-dual-sport-trail-routes/

Best regards,

Guido

Hi Guido, might be a silly question (new on the block); what is the difference between a route and a track?
