I want to try this. I’m one of the unfortunate victims of Gaia GPS turning to trash.

However, I can’t seem to find in the docs how tracks can be recorded…

Is there an app?

Do I need to be in contact with the server to record a track?

Do I need to ask my friends to send me gpx exports if they aren’t on strava?

Do you envision an integration with opentrailmap so in can share trails without having to expose Wanderer to public?

Recording is currently not possible with wanderer itself. I personally use osmAnd to record my trails and import them into wanderer. If your you don’t want to expose wanderer to the public your friends would need to send you their trails, yes. But I guess that’s no different with any other service.

  So I went to the demo and I have a few questions:
  
  Couldn’t figure out how to use 3d in demo (not critical)
  
  developer discord link on github is expired
  
  distinction between “public” and “shared” trails isn’t clear
  
  "Completion Status" for trails… what does this mean?
  
  Couldn’t import a trail in demo:
  
  haystack-mountain-101522-105940.gpx {"message":"TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'id')"}
  
  I am actually really impressed with what you have so far, and I’d love to start using this!

    There is a mountain symbol on the map. Press it to activate the terrain. Drag the compass needle to tilt the map
    
    Thanks, fixed,
    
    A public trail is visible to everyone, including non-registered users. A shared trail is only visible (or editable) for the users you share the trail with
    
    If you add a summit log to a trail it is considered "completed"
    
    Can you provide a full error stack trace, please?

  There’s also a more lightweight alternative for recording tracks called OpenTracks. It can export the data in KMZ, KML, GPX or CSV format.

  You might want to check out gpslogger.app for logging. I’m super happy with the battery usage. My use case is on multiday tracks, so battery charge is a luxury.

  Ok, I think I can deal with recording on an OSM client. I’ll give Wanderer a try.
