Morning J & T

Can I suggest you have a read of page 23 - 24 of the manual. It explains your question very well.

Manual is found at the bottom of settings tab.

Regards

I must be missing something. I have several imported track logs and cannot create treks or navigate to the start of track log. Prior to this version I could navigate to all these imported track logs. I have read the pages suggested.
I cannot navigate to all imported GPX files. I am on versions 7.08 and have this issue on my iphone 13 and Ipadpro.

John & Tracey, AFAIK you cannot directly convert a track log to a trek via point/tap and click. You would have to open the track log, use it to ascertain some relevant waypoints/ Places and use those to construct a trek in the usual manner.

Treks and Track Logs are different. Darby556, you seem to be using the term interchangeably and that won't work.

You can navigate to the start of a TREK, but you cannot navigate to the start of a TRACK LOG unless you identify the start of the Track Log and navigate to that point. Ie, there is no navigate option when you interact with a displayed track log, just Delete, Edit and Folder options.

Just to add to Frank’s comments.

A track log is something you have recorded on your journey from the tracking function.

A Trek is something you have made via adding waypoints together on your device / computer, during trip planning.

I don’t know of a way to save a track as a trek, nor do you need to. If you save your track it will save in track logs, you can then choose to keep it locked (Personal ), Open, (other people can see it), or Shareable.

If you save a Trek that you have made up, it will save in personal Treks.

Both are found if you tap on the search button, top right hand corner.

Treks will open, ExplorOz , Personal or recent.

Track Logs will open, Personal, Shared or recent.

Regards
