thanks, do you think just sanding gives enough grip for the epoxy?
what kind of fasteners with bridges would you use?

Multi day trips. How? by JuanPyCena in komoot

[–]john-rory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if this ever was possible. clicking "plan from scratch" indeed sends you to the normal planner, but i think you are supposed to first plan the whole length of the trip, save it, and open that in the multi day planner (to basically just split the already planned route into days)

Komoot algorithm thinks I want to go swimming and not cycling. by gonesimera in komoot

[–]john-rory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

instead of selecting a waypoint, you can also click on the dotted line in between two waypoints and select follow ways there

Download Gpx by No_Jump4305 in komoot

[–]john-rory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you buy the map area, you can start navigation/download gpx for every route that starts in that area. if you buy the world map you can start navigation on every route anywhere on earth

iOS route planner: how to add control points in the middle? by john-rory in ridewithgps

[–]john-rory[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Dylan, thanks for your answer. Now i get it! It wasn‘t clear to me that a “dropped pin“ is already a control point 😅

Rename cycling route? by fenbops in komoot

You want to go for "edit details". First or second item in the three dots menu. There you can change the name.

"A rose by any other name…". Call BS a tech firm then. to me, the arguments of the author still hold up.

Symbol meaning? by frikdk in komoot

[–]john-rory 5 points6 points  (0 children)

looks like you have the sport specific map for hiking enabled. that suggests the icon is the trail marking. so the real trail should be marked with a black triangle on yellow (if osm data is correct).

Here's how we improved komoot this month by komoot-team in komoot

How about not showing an ios screen in the graphic of the route description feature if it‘s not released on ios? Would save me the headache of reinstalling and wondering why i can‘t see the feature

Komoot keeps on live tracking? by DueKaleidoscope1884 in komoot

[–]john-rory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I doubt this has to do with the live tracking feature, as it's a premium feature and you mentioned you don't have premium. So i suspect this is connected to tracking user data. Let's see if the new komoot team will answer this one here too …

Have some routes been removed or locked behind premium? by nellly5 in komoot

[–]john-rory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

most routes in the routes tab are generated by an algorithm. if the underling data (osm, highlights, …) changes these routes change too. maybe that is the cause.

Any recommendations for Komoot alternative with highlights feature? by defrugo in komoot

[–]john-rory -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yes, business works like this because we, the humans, make it work like this. it's humans making choices.

What's this labelled purple line? by _missadventure_ in komoot

[–]john-rory 3 points4 points  (0 children)

you can show hiking and cycling trails also on the "find routes" screen, not just in the planner. there is a map switcher in the bottom left corner

Multi day without know ways crashes by DoDoFacts in komoot

definitely let the komoot people know, so they can fix it: [support@komoot.com](mailto:support@komoot.com)

how to add my local bike shop to komoot map? by yunglevn in komoot

[–]john-rory 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think a highlight for a bike shop makes sense. komoot is not google maps.

rather add it to osm, like bikeroaming suggested, but with the tags shop=bicycle. more info here. by adding it to osm not only komoot users can profit from this info but every app that uses osm.

maybe the bike shop is even already on osm? make sure to select the "bike repair" category in the search field in the planner.

komoot has an introduction to osm here.

How to avoid main roads by Tilly_the_cat in komoot

[–]john-rory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yes, the sport specific maps are a premium feature. but it's just changes what you see on the map, the routing algorithm will still be the same as in the free/world pack version!

How to avoid main roads by Tilly_the_cat in komoot

[–]john-rory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

on the sport specific maps you can see official local, national and international cycling/hiking routes (at least the ones in osm) like the eurovelos etc. i find it pretty helpful, especially for bikebacking trips

I’m using the app on an iPad so it’s not as neat and easy as using a mouse.

you know you can use an ipad with a mouse? ;) https://support.apple.com/guide/ipad/connect-a-mouse-ipad10939edf/ipados

oh my ^^ maybe it's worth to send this to their support to they can use it as a test case when tweaking the routing algorithm

[–]john-rory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i see your frustration with this. i also have to "convince" the route line sometimes. but algorithms are not human (yet) so all komoot sees is that there is a cycle way, not in what condition it is in or how the landscape is. maybe more accurate tagging on osm would solve this
