Tracks

Overview​

The Web Planner gives you a simple way to work with your personal data right in the browser. After signing in, you can open your tracks, adjust them, create new ones, or upload files from your computer.

All changes are automatically synced through OsmAnd Cloud, so anything you update on the web appears on your devices, and anything you create on your phone shows up here as well. This makes it easy to move between platforms and keep your data consistent wherever you use OsmAnd.

How to use​

It's a paid feature . To use it, log in to your OsmAnd Pro account.

Track login Track login

Tracks section contains all track-related tools and actions. The following options are available:

  • Show tracks from OsmAnd Cloud.
  • Adding tracks on the map (Visible on map folder).
  • Looking all tracks info and graph
  • Modify tracks and add it to Cloud.
  • Download and delete tracks.
  • Create new folders or delete it.
  • Download folders as OSF or OBF collection.

Visible on the Map​

The Visible on map view lists all tracks that are currently displayed on the map. Any track can be added to this list from the main Tracks panel using the ⋮ → Make track visible option.

Tracks that are visible on the map are highlighted in blue, while tracks that are currently hidden appear in grey. A switch next to each track lets you quickly show or hide it. The Hide all button turns off all visible tracks at once.

Below the main list, the Recently visible section displays tracks that were shown on the map earlier. This makes it easy to turn a track back on without searching for it again in your folders or in OsmAnd Cloud.

    • Travel OBF. You can also import a map of tracks as a travel book, which allows you to select individual tracks on the map and use them like normal GPX files. A travel book also supports features such as displaying tracks as points, filtering tracks by activity type, and filtering waypoints.
  • Rename. Opens a dialog where you can enter a new name for the selected folder. The change is synced to OsmAnd Cloud and will appear on all connected devices.
