• New Simple editor: pick where you’ll post it (Story, Reels, Shorts or YouTube) and a look, then tap Make Video • Music, photos, your avatar and Hide home are right there on the same screen • Every tool is still in Advanced: switch at the top of the editor anytime. If you already use Waylapse, the editor opens in Advanced • Free videos start right away in 720p; HD is under Make in HD, or Make again in HD when the video is done • Imported files open straight in the editor, and Notify when done tells you when your video is ready

• Now on iPad: a large preview beside the tools, a layout that fits portrait and landscape, and Space to play or pause • Satellite maps look more vivid by default, and you can choose a map color: Natural, Vivid, or Golden hour and Cool morning with Pro • Deep canyons and tall buildings: the camera now keeps your marker in frame in the video • Heart rate from Apple Health now lines up more closely with each point of your route • On older iPads, the preview shows a flat map so playback stays smooth; videos are still made in 3D

• Background music, remastered: each track lands a closing chord right at your finish, every track plays at the same loudness, and the preview sounds exactly like the finished video • Two new tracks: Summit Call (epic orchestral, for hikes and rides) and Golden Hour (lo-fi chill, for walks) • My music: choose where your song starts — from the beginning, timed to end with the video, or any point you pick • Smarter pacing: the same length, but slower through turns, turnarounds, the start and the finish, and quicker on the straights • Photo cards now pop up on the beat of the built-in music • Profile photos that look to one side now face the way you run • Satellite 3D: the route line stays visible above trees and buildings • The animated figure turns toward the direction of travel for a more natural look

• Photos on the route: add photos from your run and they pop up where you took them, leaving a photo pin on the map (3 free, 30 with Pro) • Share straight to Instagram Stories, plus a new “Story 20s” preset • New workout alerts: a nudge, at most once a day, when a new workout with a GPS route lands in Apple Health (turn it on in Settings) • A more lifelike animated figure: a ready pose at the start, a finish-line jump, uphill walking and a swimming stroke • A new sample: try a Central Park loop, photos included • Smoother route lines and position marker: the line stays even on mountain trails, and short videos lift the camera so the map doesn't rush by • Fixed half-drawn map tiles that could flash in the opening and closing shots

• Smoother camera: we fixed a sideways wobble in the follow camera, so videos are noticeably steadier • Bigger mile markers that no longer shake: they now glide along with you • Fixed a rare frozen map frame in exported videos

• Opening poster: your video now opens with a big distance number and your route shape — great as a thumbnail. Pick the number and color in the Cover tool • Race your past self: Waylapse finds your earlier activities on the same route, plays them side by side, and ends with a card comparing time and pace • Mile markers: every mile (or km) shows that split's pace, then leaves a numbered dot on the route. Your fastest split is in your route color • More depth: distant scenery fades into haze, the camera slowly sways, moves closer on hills and shows long climbs from the side • My styles: save your route color, map, camera and music settings, apply them in one tap, and share them with your crew as a file • Name tag: add your @handle or crew name in Settings to show it on the opening shot, the closing card and stickers • Route-shape thumbnails in your list, Copy sticker for Instagram Stories, and share captions that match the video's numbers

• New logo and app icon, plus a new video look that stays readable on any map (new number font, heart-rate zone labels, light panels on the standard map) • New first screen: watch a sample, then tap “Use my workout” — workouts from Apple Health show up right on the home screen • Outro: your summary card comes first, then the brand card, for cleaner covers and stickers • Hide home location: new workouts hide the first and last 300 m by default (change it in Settings) • 8 route colors with automatic crew colors, better large text and dark mode • Fixes, including a workout sometimes being imported twice

• Settings: choose the menu language and the language in videos separately • Now in 10 languages — Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Simplified and Traditional Chinese join English, Korean and Japanese • Explanations are tucked behind ⓘ buttons, with a one-time tip on each tab • Cleaner playback bar; picking the profile-photo marker without a photo opens the photo picker • Fixes and polish

• Privacy zone — hide the start and end near home • Trim a section, km/mi units, dates in the workout's own time zone, automatic names (place + sport) • Heart-rate zone colors and cadence tile, highlight callouts (top speed, highest point, peak heart rate) • Multisport (triathlon, brick): per-segment sport, T1/T2 cards, swim pace • Crew — replay friends' records in the same video, crew card, leader camera • Reels 45s, Shorts 60s and YouTube 16:9 presets, 4:5 feed aspect • Copy a caption, save a cover image and a transparent stat sticker from the finished screen • Try a sample first, estimated time on the first export, retry on failure • Skip stops — drop red lights and café breaks from the video; rests over 2 minutes get a "Rest" card • Dark 3D map and panel themes (dark, light, route color) • The camera closes in and slows at highlights; the outro shows a summary card (distance, time, averages, gain, km splits)

• Trekking sport with a hiking figure carrying a backpack and poles • Background music — bundled royalty-free tracks or your own files • Rendering keeps going in the background and notifies you when done • Pinch-zoom and tilt in the preview are kept in the video • Settings saved per activity, batch delete, custom route color • Smoother follow camera; overview keeps your position on screen • New icon and refreshed design (iOS 26 Liquid Glass)
