Seems like a noble effort, and I'll keep it installed and in-mind, but I'm just about to head out on a rather well-tread trail that just happens to be quite long and segmented, and I can't make anything useful of the UI at all. Though I could piece together a custom trail I was satisfied with—after much irritation and rezooming—there was then no way to save it for later that I could see, and when I tried importing a KML or GPX it was rather clumsy; I eventually succeeded at displaying the route, and maybe that'll ckme in handy later today, but I ultimately just decided to use the AllTrails pro trial and hopefully remember to cancel in time. I can't mess around with iffy, unpredictable interfaces when I'm exhausted both physically and mentally and cell service is spotty at best. hwat would be awesome is to seriously iterate on the UI of the trail side of things, if the technical bits are in-place, because it seems like an otherwise commendable endeavor. It just feels very open-source, as in maybe it technically works, but I wouldn't put myself in a vulnerable position with it
