Hi David & Michelle
Well done on a great app. Can I suggest the following features for future releases:
As a person planning for a trip I want to find a trek based on a pin placed on a map rather than my current location so that I can easily find a trek that I am planning to use in the future.
As a user navigating a trek I want to be able to reverse the order of the trek in a single click so that I can follow the trek in the way that suits my travel plans.
Thanks for developing this app hope it is financially viable for you.
cheers
Ron

Ron,

Yes great - that is a good way to think about this functionality doing it from a place/marker - sort of like set my current position to (override GPS).

Trek point order - understand and I think i made some assumptions - that you would travel in distance from current position order. I will look into this a bit more and work out the best solution.

Thanks for the feedback and being an ExplorOz Traveller.

Ron,

Part way there - todays update 1.8.15 allows you to select the direction of travel when you press GoTo on a trek. The list etc will still show you the distance based on how far away the trek is but when you select the GoTo option it will prompt you.

The option to view treks etc in proximity from a pin is a little harder but in the list.

Thanks again for your feedback.
David
