Same goes for large tcx files you drag onto the TrailRunner application icon or main window. Also GPX files are being loaded much faster due to an asynchronous decoding. TrailRunner 2.1 can now import Lap information from LoadMyTracks gpx files. There’s a new tutorial available explaining all operations available (Tutorials > Import and edit Tracks) ![]() ![]() Update: You can now even remove data points in the middle of a track. You can either select something in the graph and then hit the backspace key or you open the track editor and use the Trim Selection command. The screenshot shows a workout to be imported. Trimming means that everything from the edge up to and including the selection will be removed. I do not know why I did not add this earlier but you can now trim workouts to be imported and routes within the map. This migration should solve many startup performance problems and will keep your mac responsive even with very large diaries. TrailRunner 2.1 will already honor speed units like distance per hour or minutes per distance for sport kinds and also will calculate calories with a different formula. So in future versions diaries can have different parameters for calculations. Diaries are now based on a sport kind like running or biking.

(1) TrailRunner mini and TrailRunner touch use a very fast and modern routing engine, compared to the routing engine of TrailRunner 3. So whatever app you use, have fun with them, let me know what you think and please understand that in the end - it is the money I make with them what gives me the motivation to stick with it. I develop all this stuff in my spare time. Therefore TrailRunner 3 still is donation-ware while TrailRunner mini is more or less commercial software. Something I can't do for every aspect of Trailrunner 3. But in an amount and complexity I can easily support and extend in the future. The younger sibling is much easier to use and has far less features. I started all this with TrailRunner and it's for historical reasons that TrailRunner 3 is donation-ware.Īs TrailRunner 3 is rather complicated to use, I chose to rewrite the heart of it for TrailRunner mini. Why is TrailRunner 3 free/donation-ware while the other Apps are not? Alternatively you can send emails out of Trails to any of your devices and import the attached GPX file into TrailRunner mini, TrailRunner touch or even RaceBunny. Trails can send recordings via Wifi to TrailRunner but not TrailRunner mini. Trails is probably the best GPS recorder for the iPhone. Watch how background routes are set in RaceBunnyĪlternatively there's Trails for the iPhone developed by Felix Lamureux. So basically you plan a tour in either of the other Apps publish them to your shared dropbox route database and then display them as background routes in RaceBunny. RaceBunny can record your trips and can import routes created in TrailRunner, TrailRunner mini or TrailRunner touch and display them as colored background routes. The closest relative of TrailRunner mini and TrailRunner touch is RaceBunny for the iPhone. What app do you recommend for the iPhone? As both support dropbox syncing, both apps can have a shared route database. TrailRunner touch is almost identical to TrailRunner mini, except that it's tailored for the iPad and the touch interface. Well, and then there's TrailRunner touch for the iPad ![]() In the end - it depends on your personal bias between simplicity and features. If you find TrailRunner 3 too complicated or bloated and you're only in need of a decent and simple to use route planner, go with TrailRunner mini. If you consider yourself an expert routing freak with a GPS on your wrist, use TrailRunner 3. Take a look into the TrailRunner tutorial to see what TrailRunner is capable of Watch the video tutorial on what TrailRunner mini can do In addition TrailRunner mini can automatically synchronize routes created and published by TrailRunner touch for the iPad or other instances of TrailRunner and TrailRunner mini (possibly running on a different machine, or to be more precise: can import routes from your dropbox). If you are accustomed to TrailRunner, TrailRunner mini is just the openStreetMap based route planner - no diary, no GPS import interfaces - but can import files in the gpx, tcx, pwx and kml file formats! What is the difference between TrailRunner and TrailRunner mini TrailRunner has a small brother called TrailRunner mini that is available on the Mac App Store.
