How do I customize my map in the TrailIntel mobile app?

You can change your background map style, trail opacity, and which waypoints show on the map in the Map Preferences menu

Map Display Features

Map Type, Trail Opacity, Waypoint Filters

There are map customization options built right into your TrailIntel app, accessible through the Map Preferences menu in the bottom left corner of the screen.

Background Map Type

You can select between three background map options. 

  • Standard - street detail, bodies of water, and 3D terrain
  • Satellite - satellite imagery
  • Hybrid - a combination of both satellite imagery and overlaid street info

 

Example of the Standard map:

Trail Opacity

We have integrated a trail opacity slider to make it easier to view your entire map and background info when you’re zoomed out to see a large area. 

When the “Fade with zoom” slider is off (yellow) the maps will stay the same opacity when you zoom in and out. You can adjust the opacity level with the slider.

When the “Fade with zoom” slider is on (blue) the maps will be more transparent the further you zoom out, and more opaque the closer you zoom in. The slider indicates how opaque the trails are when you zoom in very close.

Waypoint Filtering

Under Waypoints in the Map Preferences menu, you can select which categories of waypoints you would like to display on the map, from none to all and everything between. The green check indicates that category is currently displaying on the map.
