Starting today there's a native app for it, in public beta.</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>What the app does</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Find trails:</strong> search your instance and any instances it federates with. Filter by category, difficulty, distance or elevation.</li>
<li><strong>Plan routes:</strong> tap anchors on the map and the router connects them along paths, for hiking or one of four bike profiles.</li>
<li><strong>Record:</strong> GPS tracking with live distance, elevation gain, speed and moving time. It keeps recording in the background and needs no network.</li>
<li><strong>Offline maps:</strong> download whole map regions and trails before you leave.</li>
<li><strong>Turn-by-turn navigation:</strong> works offline too, and records your track while you navigate.</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto"><strong>For admins: what your instance needs</strong></p>
<p dir="auto">Please read the guide on how to make your instance comaptible with the app:<br />

<p dir="auto"><strong>It's a beta.</strong><br />
Do not rely on the app alone for navigation! Always carry a backup map (digital or physical).<br />
The goal is full parity with the web UI, but some things are still web-only for now. There's a full comparison here: <a href="https://wanderer.to/app/what-works-where" rel="nofollow ugc">https://wanderer.to/app/what-works-where</a></p>
