Tracked my hike up/down Monadnock yesterday and it worked well. There was very little battery drain (Galaxy S4 with root folder on a SanDisk Ultra 64 GB MicroSDXC Class 10 UHS-1 running in airplane mode).

However, a few issues to report:
  1. Large map downloads often hang part way through (at 5%, 10%, 40%, etc). I've let them run overnight, deleted the partly downloaded map and retried, removed/reinstalled the app, etc without success. It seems to happen with >1GB worth of tiles... when I saved smaller sets of tiles, it wasn't a problem.
  2. A minor design suggestion: There's no 2nd field for confirming the password when registering for Gaia Cloud (won't know if there's a typo).
  3. So far all of my Gaia Cloud syncs have ended with "Sync Incomplete" (at some point, I'll install Gaia Cloud on another device and see what actually synced).
I'm really enjoying the app, and look forward to forthcoming features (like track export). Keep up the great work!

Adam,

Thanks for the report, and I'm glad you are liking the beta. Once we finish with waypoints, I think the beta is my preference to the regular app for any hike. 

Have a good weekend!

Andrew
