Follow a Trail in CarPlay

Once you've selected a Trail, you will see the track on the map and your location indicated with a pulsing orange dot. CarPlay will also display Waypoints with their reference number.

Tap on the screen and select the Waypoints tab to view the complete list of Waypoints for the trail, including their names and descriptions. If you need more detailed Waypoint information, refer to your mobile device while driving.

Finish Your Ride and Leave a Review

When you're done with your trail ride, simply tap the X button to exit Follow Mode and remove the Waypoints. To start another trail adventure, select Trails from the upper left and choose a new trail from the list.

We hope you had an awesome time on the trail! Don't forget to leave a trail review in the app on your mobile device. Trail reviews provide valuable personal insights that our guides may not include. They also help the community stay informed about any recent changes in trail conditions.
