iOS Version 10.4 Updates, Features, and Fixes
Polygons in v10.4
Map Source Menu and Main iPhone Menu
- Updated Map Source Menu – Includes updated categories, descriptive icons, and more information to help you find the perfect map for your next adventure.
- Improved Map Source Details – Shows a source description, as well as a demo map, zoom range, description, and attribution.
- New Map Source Management Tools – Remove default layers, and view/add/remove sources you imported via the “more layers” screen.
- Enhanced iPhone Main Menu – The main menu has been re-imagined with a grid-view that better emphasizes important choices, and makes navigating with 1-hand simple and easy.
Auto-Naming, 3D Touch, Duplicate Tracks, Better Translations
- Auto-naming – No more “My Track” and “My Photo” default names—tracks, routes, waypoints, maps, and photos receive automatically generated names based on location, unless you manually add names.
- 3D-Touch Support – Gaia utilizes a new iOS feature available for iPhone 6S—3-D Touch for peek and pop actions over map source icons.
- Track Duplication – Duplicate your tracks before editing to avoid accidental loss of data.
- Improved Language Support – We added and updated translations for the Gaia GPS app and App Store description in 15 languages.
New GaiaPro Features
- Polygons – One of the longest-running, most requested features in our Idea Forum, polygons allow you to create areas, measure area and perimeters, download maps based on areas, and import areas from KML.
- New Elevation Capabilities – Replace elevation data on a track with data from a digital elevation model. Most useful for imported tracks, and tracks with bad elevation data due to poor GPS reception.
Bug Fixes
- Improved Photo Waypoint Export – Photos will now export more successfully with improved file names.
- Add Photo to Existing Waypoint – Now adds properly rather than creating a new waypoint
- Guide Me Stats – New layout.
- More Stability – We expect this update to cut the already low amount of crashes in half.
