OsmAnd Web 1.03 — Now Available!

We're excited to announce the release of OsmAnd Web 1.03. This update introduces Garmin Connect integration for automatic activity sync, a redesigned navigation interface, improved management of personal data with Smart Folders and pinned Favorites, and enhanced track customization with adjustable color and width. It also improves POI information with opening hours displayed directly in the context menu, along with multiple usability improvements and bug fixes across the web map.

Enjoy a smoother and more intuitive OsmAnd Web experience.

Overview

What's new

Garmin Connect Integration

You can now connect your Garmin Connect account in the Web Planner and automatically sync your activities with OsmAnd.

Once connected, activities are imported as tracks and stored in a dedicated Garmin Connect folder in the Tracks section. New activities are added automatically after they are recorded in your Garmin account. Imported activities are converted into tracks, and their types are preserved when possible. You can also sync recent activity history during the initial connection.

Read more about it in our blog article.

Smart Folders Support

Smart Folders are now supported in the web version, allowing you to view and manage track collections created on mobile devices. Smart Folders are synced via OsmAnd Cloud when Settings synchronization is enabled.

On the web, Smart Folders are displayed in the track list with a distinct star icon for easy identification. The folder content depends on its configuration on the device, and only supported parameters are applied when displaying tracks.

Track Tools

Several improvements were introduced to make working with tracks easier and more flexible.

Track Panel Redesign

Redesigned track panel and context menu with a new top action bar, quick access controls, and tab-based navigation between Overview, Track, and Points.

Web Track Context Menu

Export GPX as Simplified Track

A new export option allows downloading GPX tracks in a simplified format. This helps reduce file size and improves compatibility when sharing tracks with other applications or services.

Web Navigation

Public Transport Stops

Public transport stops can now be displayed directly on the map. Stop markers indicate locations where public transport routes operate. Selecting a stop opens a context panel with key information and quick actions.

The Routes section lists all routes serving the selected stop, including the transport type and route number. Selecting a route opens a detailed view showing the full sequence of stops, with the currently selected stop highlighted on the map.

POI Context Menu Improvements

The POI context menu has been enhanced to display more useful information about locations directly on the map.

Opening Hours

Opening hours are now shown directly in the POI context menu when this information is available. The menu also indicates whether a place is currently open or closed.

POI Context Menu

Wikimedia Metadata

Photos from Wikimedia sources now display additional information in the POI photo gallery. When opening a photo, users can view details such as the date, author, license information, and a description of the image.

Photo Gallery

Pinned Favorite Folders

Favorite folders can now be pinned so that frequently used folders appear at the top of the list for quicker access. Pinned folders are displayed in a separate section above the rest of the Favorites.

Favorite Folders

Favorites and Waypoint Editing

The Favorites and waypoint editing workflow has been redesigned with a new unified Edit panel. Favorites and track waypoints can now be edited more conveniently, including name, address, description, folder, icon, color, and shape settings.

The updated interface also adds improved appearance preview both in the editor and on the map, categorized icon selection, custom color palettes, dedicated description editing, and easier folder management with support for creating new folders directly from the editor.

Favorites Improvements

Selected Object

When an object on the map (such as a POI, favorite, or navigation point) is selected, it is now highlighted with a distinct pin marker. Only one object can be selected at a time, and the map scrolls to it only if it is not currently visible on screen.
