What's new
Version 2.4.7 · Oct 21, 2026
What's new in 2.4.7 • Cleaner map screen: the top bar now shows only mode, bike type and a More menu. Routing options, map style, round-trip settings and route sources (saved, discover, GPX, tour URL, training route) live there now. • The round-trip panel can be closed and reopened by tapping "Round trip". • Routing preferences: the Save button no longer covers the switches; the dialog scrolls. • Connection fix: on IPv6 networks (mobile, many DSL lines) route calculation failed with a certificate error. Fixed on the server side. • The support address support@thomas-peterson.de is now reachable. Thanks for your feedback via reviews!
