howzit,

 

anyone got experience with this app?

https://www.komoot.com

 

It seems to have VERY good online route management, and then you send straight to your phone, where the app then shows you where to go. can be used for running/cycling/bike touring

 

Am organising an undercover "trailrun" this weekend, so will give it a test to see how it works for all and sundry

We used it for a bike packing trip a while ago.

It worked very lekker before (planning) and during our trip.

 

I highly recommend it.

I've downloaded komoot. Seems pretty good. Haven't used it yet though.

 

Also, is there an app for Garmin which allows you to create a route on your mobile and then have it display on your watch? I've only ever been able to use pre loaded/existing maps which you search and find on desktop

 

Sorry for the threadjack :)

We used it on the Silk Road Mountain Race this year as a backup to our Garmins. It was part of the race package.

 

You can download the maps to use offline so not cell phone reception relient, which was a big plus when we wanted to reroute in the middle of nowhere. It used about 60% of my phone's battery life in 12 hrs of riding, so not too bad from that respect.

 

I am not an IT fundi at all, and even I found it very user friendly.
