Using with Start flagged (only) to record track to update OSM maps. App hangs when try to add first stop
Quote from GraniteView on 12.01.2026, 13:04I am new to scenic but like what I see so far. I have been trying to update the OSM maps in my area. I have poor cell reception and do have the offline map downloaded. I have successfully done one track, exported the points, imported to OSM and created my road. This is solely with an iphone 15 pro.
I tried to do a secondary road walking using 4.27. I set a Start, then started the ride and began walking. At a juncture point I thought I should record a ‘waypoint’ so I paused the ride, went to Plan and put in a ‘Stop’ (first one). At this point, scenic went into recalculating and never returned. However, I continued the walk to where I could ensure I had network connection (I believe I had network connection at the time), It was still ‘recalculating’.
Checked what version I had and discovered there was an update so I put the update in first (4.28). On restarting scenic it noted it had quit unexpectedly and asked if I wanted to save the ‘ride’. YAY! saved the walking points. I note it recorded past where it ‘hung’ so I have all the data points for the map update but was not able to add a Stop while recording.
But i had also noticed changing information while ‘riding’ (even in car mode), that it sometimes gets stuck ‘recalculating’ and has to be restarted.
