This update adds turn-by-turn directions along your routes and tracks, directions to any point on the map, and a new Polygon tool. What's new • Follow a saved route or track with turn alerts. Pick one from the Route cell on the Tracker, or tap Navigate on a route or track. Goat Maps tells you when you go off course and shows the distance to go and your arrival time. Spoken directions are off by default; turn them on with the speaker button. • Navigate to a waypoint, a dropped pin or a place on the map along a route that follows trails and roads. If you leave it, you get a new one. • Tap a peak or another point of interest on the map to save it as a waypoint or navigate to it. • Draw areas with the new Polygon tool. Edges can follow trails and roads like a route does, and tapping the area switches its units. Polygons have their own section in My Data and their own switch in Map Layers. • Vertices snapping puts points exactly on the corners of your other routes and polygons. • Plan routes that follow trails and roads without a connection, in the areas you've downloaded (members). Fixes • The map no longer freezes with a large library of tracks and routes, and draws them much faster. • The Tracker tab shows a red dot while a track is recording. • My Data no longer crashes on waypoints with impossible coordinates.

What's new • Share routes and tracks as a goatmaps.com link, or as a story or post image showing the map, your track and its stats. • Choose an activity for each track, like hiking, running, biking or skiing. Set it before or during recording, or later from the track's stats. • Improved pull-up sheets for tracker stats and map taps. • Copy coordinates with a tap wherever they are displayed. Fixes • Exporting a GPX file no longer freezes the app. • Fixed several small map download bugs making it more robust.

Most of this update is bug fixes, especially in track recording, sync and offline maps. Goat Maps also has a new look for iOS 26. What's new • Design updates for iOS 26. • Improved Map Layers sheet for base maps, overlays and offline maps. • Improved slope shading UI. Fixes • Tracks save progressively as they record, so running out of battery during a hike does not lose your track. • More accurate and cleaner GPS recording, excluding bad GPS readings that previously might have caused spikes in tracks. • More robust syncing. • Offline map downloads handle resuming partial downloads and downloading in the background. • After a brief loss of signal, contours and slope shading load again. • Waypoints, routes and tracks appear on the map immediately after creation. • Fixes a blank share sheet in iOS 26. • Files you open from the Files app import even if Goat Maps wasn't running. • We fixed many rare crashes, including one that left the app unable to open until you reinstalled it. • Fast GPX exports

We are currently focusing on fixing bugs, and this update is mostly bug fixes. Faster GPX imports - Large GPX files now import 10x faster Faster Route Display - If you have thousands of routes, you may have noticed they take a while to display on the map. Now 10,000 routes will display in a few seconds.

● We’ve redesigned the My Data screens to play perfectly with the latest iOS and to be easier on the eyes. • All actions are now in a single menu in the upper-right (no more scattered buttons). • Extra space for your map = more focus on what matters. • Room for future actions without clutter. ● Import files to directly to an existing folder, or to a project that is not currently the Active Project. ● Search within Projects or Folders - iOS 26 only.

This fall we are focusing on bug fixes. This update fixes several issues: • Location marker not showing properly on the route navigation profile. • Deleting a route was not syncing to other devices, now it does. • Syncing is faster. • Rotation is now locked when creating waypoints, because having the map rotate while creating a waypoint has unexpected results. • Show more descriptive error messages when inviting someone to a folder fails. • Many other bug fixes you won't notice, but we will.

Projects • Projects are a new way to organize your data. You can share projects with other people, or join to projects created by others. The last update introduced projects, but based on feedback we have made some changes to the way they are presented, and added more help messages explaining how to use them. Route Profile Improvements • You can now zoom in on the route elevation profile to see more detail.

This update fixes a bunch of bugs, but that is the boring part. The exciting part is 2 new features that we have been working on for a while: ● Projects → Projects are a new way to organize your data. You can share projects with other people, or join projects created by others. ● Bulk Operations → Now you can select multiple items at once on the My Data Tab, then quickly delete, file them to a folder, or move them to a project.

- Improved track crop UI - Added keyboard navigation for the map - Fixed login issue

It’s been a while since the last update, but don’t worry, we are still hard at work. Most of our effort lately has been on the web, which we will be launching soon. This update is mostly bug fixes, but does have a few new features: • Keyboard Control - you can now use the keyboard to navigate around the map. • Notes and comments are now imported from GPX files. • The map language can be switched between English and local language in the region being viewed.

* Dark Mode maps - The topo map now has a dark mode variant, and dark mode maps will be used when your device is in dark mode. * Map Overlay Details - Many map overlays now show additional information when tapped. * Track Waypoints - The details view for a track now shows waypoints that were created while the track was recorded.

This version is all bug fixes. The last updated added multiple new features, and so will the next one. But not this one.

• Detailed Route Information - See detailed stats about each leg of your route. • Map Text Size - Map text, tracks, routes, and waypoints all increase in size with device font size setting. • Coordinate Entry - Enter coordinates to create a waypoint.

This update is mostly bug fixes and performance improvements, but does add 1 new feature that was requested by many users: UTM is now an option for coordinate display.

New this version is our most requested feature: Folders! Plus many bug fixes and performance improvements.

This update has numerous bug fixes, and 1 big new feature: Custom slope angle shading! Are you planning a ski day and want to color all east facing slopes over 30 degrees red, and all terrain under 6000 feet green? No problem. Flat terrain purple? You can do that too!

* Slope Angle Shading. * Fix that was causing subscriptions to show as expired for some people.
