- Follow-Me is described as giving one alert after leaving a route and another after returning, including with the screen off.
Field notes
The described workflow starts with importing a GPX file and checking its elevation profile, then downloading a map area before heading out. Follow-Me is said to alert once after leaving the route and once after rejoining, while the screen is off. Packing lists can be exported as CSV, and the page says routes, position, and lists do not require a connection; the app itself remains in development.
