    I had a go at creating two collections. The video instruction was helpful. The function of selecting a zone is a good way to group the walks in an area. Shorter routes were easy enough to draw, the only issue was occasionally some stretches of footpaths were not recognised and it would try and ‘correct’ to a longer paved path. Longer routes were a bit more fiddly at times to finish. Final waymarkers would sometimes knock out the previous section of the route and were difficult to delete so it often took several attempts to get the route close enough. An undo button would be useful. When clicking the snap to path it would also help to have the green accept button appear in the same box and not off the screen to the side. Corrections to the route when it is test walked will help with the fine tuning of the route.

    Some of my routes/collection I was unable to publish. Several attempts to select publish and update, then a green banner to say the update was successful, did not publish the routes.

    When selecting a route from the collections map the route selected shows as a pop up, could it be set that the pop-up shows in full? Often the view button is off the bottom of the map and then cannot easily click on the route. An option to add a cover photo for the collections would be nice too, or it be taken from the first route added to the collection.

    Hi, this all looks very exciting. I’m really looking forward to submitting some great walks based from Tiverton. I am away just now in the Pirrin mountains, Bulgaria. But back in a couple of weeks. I promise I’ll be on to it asap.
    Cheers
