Intuitive GPX mapping for the iPhone
Trails is the first GPS iPhone app that allows you to record, import and export tracks onto your iPhone. Trails was featured as an iTunes Staff Favourite!
Record maps while hiking, on bike trips or while jogging directly on your iPhone. Easily import tracks and follow hikes of others!
You can export your tracks with two clicks in the standard GPX Format. This allows you to geotag and geocode your non-iPhone photos (via e.g. HoudahGeo) or to share your track with others via Google Earth, etc. You can find a tutorial on how to geotag your photos using Trails and your iPhone here.
Trails is featured in the New York Times Gadgetwise Blog.
Trails is recommended by MacLife as one of their 101 iPhone Apps.
Trails beats Garmin: A field experiment (german) shows that Trails (2.99 US$) on the iPhone is more precise than the Garmin Edge 305 (200 US$).
