Original release notes

What's new in 2.0.2

• Train for this route. Choose a route, a trip or a hike and the day you want to be ready, and get a plan week by week: a long hike that builds, hill or stair sessions, strength, easy walks, and a lighter last week. Your recordings mark sessions as done, and the plan adjusts if you miss some. The plan, its reminders and reading your past walks from Apple Health (only if you allow it) are in Pro; a line on each route comparing your longest recent hike with its biggest day is free. Everything stays on your phone. The rules behind the plan are a draft that a coach or physical therapist has not read yet, and the app says so.
• Turns along the whole of a long route. On a very long route, such as the South Downs Way, the turns could stop partway along it. They are now found along the whole route.
• Easier to use. Your age in Settings › Running is typed, not stepped, and fills in from Apple Health when you allow it. A new route starts from your location, so Via a trail finds the trails near you at once. In lists you choose from, such as the route type, every row has an open circle that fills with a tick, and the words no longer move.
