Hey there,

it’s been a while since my last post. Since then - with the help of this awesome community - I have added multiple new features and fixed a lot of bugs.

Most importantly there is now a working demo alongside a shiny new landing page.

And here are some more fun features I added since then:

  • Trail drawing: in addition to uploading you GPX, TCX or KML files, you can now also simply draw a trail by defining multiple waypoints. The route between them will be calculated automatically.
  • Sharing trails: simple and straightforward - you can share your trails with other users and let them view or edit.
  • Printing trails: there is now a dedicated print view. Plan your adventure digitally and then take it with you on paper.
  • wanderer is now available in 8 different languages (thanks to translators from the community). If you would like to contribute a translation you can do so here.
  • You can now bulk upload multiple trails at once simply by putting them in a dedicated auto-upload folder

And much more. I’d be happy if you give it a try in case you haven’t yet.

    It looks amazing!

    How well fitted would this be for a Google maps timeline replacement?

    I see you mention we need to upload the files which maybe could be obtained from an app like https://github.com/mendhak/gpslogger
    I already had a flow to have them on my server with syncthing, so I could easily use your api to process them.

    The thing would be to have each trail be marked as each day and have a way of showing them nicely (I haven’t tested everything in the demo hehe).

    Is there a plan to be able to process any GPS standard to automatically generate the trails?

    I’m currently using traccar, but it looks more like a fleet management than something to remember where you’ve been.
