AlpineQuest & OfflineMaps

I have really found the Explorer mode useful on walks with much helpful information about the path being followed, i.e. distance, ascent and a graph showing the details. I have particularly found it helpful getting an estimate of the time remaining on a path, which I have found to be very accurate. ...

I had the same problem. Using Xiaomi pocophone and previously Redmi. But I found this was due to being logged out of the phone. If you log in again with fingerprint or pin code then keyboard is accessible again, so by this means although a little cumbersome, I can overcome problem and be able to nam...

It would be very useful to be able to convert a track/ path / route so that it goes in reverse. Sometimes it is easier when plotting a track on AQ to start at the end and work back to the beginning. Then if there was the facility for reversing it completely there is an accurate picture of the route ...

I have now loaded the beta version for my phone (Xiaomi Redmi 5 plus) and the problem with slow screen is now totally resolved. Many thanks. Regarding the problem of not being able to enter text when saving a track, I think this is due to the phone being logged out. If I log in (with fingerprint / p...

Thanks for the suggestions. I am happy to try installing an old version of AQ to see if it resolves problem. Can you let me know where these are available. I have had a quick look and cannot see the old APKs on the website. Thank you

I have noticed that with my new phone Xiaomi Redmi 5 plus that the touchscreen doesn't work smoothly with Alpinequest. For example when the map is loaded if using my finger to move the screen it is slow to react. I know this is not normal as I have used AQ on several other phones and the screen alwa...

Thanks for your response. I did find a workaround for this problem by installing a smartscreen app which enabled me to overcome the problem. I have just tried disabling this app and restoring the phone's original keyboard and the screen is going off ok now. This may be due to updates with the Xiaomi...

Hi. I have recently changed my phone (Redmi 5 plus - Android 7.1.2). Everything is working fine with AQ on this phone apart from one thing. I have in settings ticked "Display over lockscreen" so that when the screen is off it should on pressing power button open in the AQ window (which was...

Thank you for your reply. It is surprising after using your app for so long that there are new features to discover! I had never tried "Follow path", as I just used the route as created, but I tried it yesterday when out and the estimated time for completing the walk at various points alon...

I have found the inclusion of elevation data in Alpinequest really useful especially when creating routes or when importing routes which don't have the elevation included and I now use AQ quite a lot for creating routes as it is very easy to do especially when out walking and when looking for altern...

I have been successfully using AQ on my phones for several years, but recently purchased an Acer R11 Chromebook. This now has access to Google Play and I have installed AQ on the device. So far I am very pleased that AQ functions very well on the chromebook. My device has a touchscreen, so I have th...

Thanks for sorting this out. I had assumed that the smoothing was just for recorded tracks. Turning it off gives me accurate elevation figures with the track imported as KML, though with GPX the elevations shown in AQ are still approx 60 m less than the actual elevation. Is it not possible to have t...

Thanks for your reply. I have now tried to look at same situation by converting the file to KML. See results in table below where I have compared the data when the file is displayed after importing as an gpx file or kml file with the same elevation data contained within each - and also comparing wit...

I am a bit puzzled about the elevation levels shown on a imported route, which seem to be at variance with the true level (as shown on the map) and the levels in the gpx file. As an example - I create a route / track using memory map. I later add elevation data using a pc program and then import to ...

Now working fine and great to have time stamp based on the start date of the track. Thanks a lot
