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.

I'll install this on my Lab it looks cool!
Also, is there any mobile app that can trace and upload trails I do in the day ?
OpenTracks?
Looks like what I wanted! However, it doesn't seem to let me export to a supported format for Wanderer (only kmz?), could you confirm @get_[email protected] ?
Open Tracks allows exporting in either KMZ (default), KML or GPX format. Go to Settings, tap on "Import and Export" and there look, towards the end, for the entry "Export/sharing file format".
Awesome, thanks for the tip! I'll try the app on my next trail trip
I don't know the app. But on the linked page it says it supports GPX and KML. Both of which wanderer supports.
On iOS there is GPX Tracker which simply records a GPX track and can overlay openstreetmap data while doing so.
Cool! I always recommend OsmAnd.
Ah, ok, so I can export my OsmAnd paths, import into this and then remind myself of where I went on holiday / almost fell of a cliff / got lost driving / etc ?
I have a bunch of tracks I've saved over the years... hmm... maybe this is what I should be using
Exactly! As long as you have the track in a GPX, TCX or KML file, you are good to go.
You can also plan your route directly on wanderer (so you don't fall off another cliff ;))
