I also use Gaia. I started using it as my backpacking tracker and for hikes. I use it to keep track of my mileage. I recently started to use it to record local trails. I bought a Rmax4. It's my first sxs. I have recorded several local trails. What's nice about it is it overlays my recorded track so when I'm riding I can use it like a guide to stay on trail without making a new recording.
Excellent video! BTW users should always have a waterproof map and compass as backup and practice using them. Nav software is great for visualizing while you train.
Is it in Sevier County in Fishlake National Forest? I do see some 4x4 trails when using a US Forest Map source. Not sure if those are what you are looking for or not. If I use other map soruces I see other trails but may not be the detail you are looking for but you can always map your trails as you ride them too,
Yes, it will. I show a little of that in the video, though I was walking a trail. However, keep in mind, the tablet's GPS and processor play a role in how fast the map can update and track you. I tried this first with a Amazon Fire tablet and it wouldn't work. I then tried a lower end tablet and it worked but was really slow. It wasn't until I went with a little better tablet that the tracking was real time.
Rough Riders thank you for getting back to me , the tablet I was going to use was an older iPad . I got a new one and this one was just sitting in a closet so I was going to designate it for GPS for my side-by-side. I didn’t want to order it and buy if it was going to work on that older iPad . I seen the part where u was walking on the path and was hoping it works that well on the older iPad.
@@howardmiller4241 Unfortunately, this version of the app does not work with an ipad as it is Android only. They have a subscription one that I think crosses platforms but I didn't want a subscription model. There are other apps that work on iOS but to my knowledge, iPads do not have a GPS in them...I could be wrong here but that was my understanding. You could try Gaia or Avenza, I think they have iOS apps.
Rough Riders I went and found it in the ap store so assumed it work with iPad, I’m glad u said something I was going to buy the app tomorrow. I was looking to at least be able to track me so if I got turned around I could look at the iPad and know at least what direction I came from.
had Garmin eTrex able to enter waypoints using gps coordinates. Have coordinates can't figure out how to create a waypoint using gps coordinates Also would like to draw a line from 1 waypoint to another, then show where I am with respect to that line, having border issues'. Do you have any videos dealing with the first time opening the app?
I don't think it will do a draw a line automatically between 2 way points. However, using the Measure and Draw function I covered in the video, you can draw the line between those points. But I really only use this for adding a trail after the fact. Most of the time I will just use the record track to capture the lines and mark waypoints either based upon downloads or whenever I stop and want to add the waypoint to an active ride. As for GPS coordinates, I've not tried that but will give it a shot when I have some time. Lastly, not sure what you mean on first time opening the app. It should look like what I have in the video when you open it. Most of what I showed in the video was after you open it and want to add maps, folders, etc.
Good video. I've use BCN-Pro for a couple of years. Now installing it on a new tablet, and I can't find the Add-on for offline use. I tried BCN-XE for a year, but I like Pro better.
There is no add on needed. You just need to download the area of map that you need on your device. Then instead of using live maps, you select the downloaded map. It will then overlay your position on that downloaded map. I show this in the video.
Thanks. It does work pretty well. Probably not the perfect solution but pretty good for $12.00. The real challenge is finding good GPX files to upload. Still looking for a good source for off road trail GPX files. Tons of stuff for hiking, bike routes and stuff.
Thanks Jeff. Not sure I understand the question. I am running Win 10 on my PC and just used a Micro USB cable to connect my tablet to my PC. Windows File explorer will see the tablet as a standard USB storage device so you can drag/drop files from one to the other. Since I shot this video, I added a Micro SD storage card to the tablet to hold all the maps so I redid everything and moved all the maps and GPX files over to the SD card. It was a little deeper in (folder wise). I ended up just creating a couple folders and making sure that BCN could see them from inside the app and the PC could see them from Windows. Then just pointed BCN nav to put them there instead of in the tablet memory. I also downloaded most of the OpenAndro maps and put them in the folders so I could access those offline as well. I may add another video on the OpenAndro Map process as well since those are some pretty good maps too.
That was the Galaxy Tab S2 as i recall. I don't have the SxS anymore and sold the tablet with the SxS. It did not have a data plan. You just download the maps while at home and you can use the GPS capabilities of the tablet overlaid on that downloaded map.
Does the product have a feature, perhaps a compass, or a pointer, that will guide the user on a saved trail, telling the user make a right, now left, go straight - following the trail in real-time ?
So there is a real time compass pointer. However, it doesn't do a turn by turn direction like a car map does. If you have the trail map already on the screen, the pointer does show you where you are on the trail and gives you an idea of where the upcoming turns are as you move along. Unfortunately, I didn't think to show the compass piece in the video. However, you can see the pointer arrow showing your direction on a trail at the 18:30 mark...though I am recording a track there and not following an imported or previously recorded track.
I don't know what their current business model is but they have a whole bunch of different map sources, not just thunder forest. So you can choose any of those different map sources and switch between them on the fly (assuming you downloaded that section). For example, you could download thunderforest, USA Topo map from ArcGIS, etc. while you have an internet connection and then when you move to offline mapping, switch sources and your position will be overlayed on that map source. There are additional maps you can buy but as mentioned, it already comes with a ton of different topo, imagery, etc. You can also use Prebuilt maps that you make yourself with OpenAdroMaps. So there are options. I myself just use the map sources provided, they have served me well in both Washington State and here in Colorado.
@@RoughRidersTV Thanks for the reply but I have the following questions 1- is there an annual subscription like Gaia (which I don't like) or just to buy the product. (to download offline maps) 2- Can I download a realistic map (image) to use offline (I'm from Europe if that matters)
@@murtagon4460 I bought this and did the review several years ago so I don't know what might have changed since then. At the time, it was a 1 time purchase (around $12.00) for the app with maps included. There were "in app" purchases you could make on top of that for additional maps, etc. I know they developed a subscription version called Backcountry Navigator XE but I think they maintain both platforms. I think the XE version probably gets updates first but I think the BCN Pro is still getting updates as well. I've been using it for years now and it still works fine. Looking in the map sources, I see 3 maps for northern europe, 6 for southern europe, and 3 for central europe. I see 1 imagery map for Italy. The rest look like cartography maps, not sat. imagery maps. So, if you really need imagery maps, you might need to make them yourself or see if there is any in the in app purchases that cover your needs.
It's more a question for BCN capabilities. I have specific longitude and latitude coordinates and want mapping program to guide me to that location. Will this be possible?
Not sure it can do exactly that. However, you could use the coordinates to drop a pin on a downloaded map and then use the map to determine trails that might get you there and track your progress along the way. It's not like a street GPS where it can give you turn by turn directions.
@@RoughRidersTV thanks A historian recorded a private burial site of my ancestors in a remote area. His old Garmin' couldnt work us to the coordinates. I'll try backcountry. Charlie
@@charlesgardner9896 I haven't looked recently but there was a trial version of BCN you could download for free. You could try downloading the app and some maps of the area. Then input the coordinates and see if it lands in the correct area. If so, then you could just drop a pin on that spot and zoom in to see if the map you chose will show you any trails that might access that location. Note, you will probably have to convert the long/lat into decimal degrees first.
what are you explaining and be perfect for people on low income spending a little too much getting ready to go backpacking or hiking to bring up a map windy out there in the wilderness to find their way back to your vehicle or the campsite
I believe it was a Tab A7 if I'm not mistaken. It was a couple years old model that I found on ebay. for about $150. I wanted the ruggedized model but it was $350 and I did not want to spend that much.
I've never tried to download the entire state. However, you could probably zoom out enough to get most of it on a screen and then set the resolution high enough (scale) so that you can zoom in to get detail. Normally, I prefer to just capture the area I will be riding and save it as a separate file so I can find exactly what I am looking for when I am headed to ride there.
I'm not sure. I have not tried Garmin Basecamp. I did look at Avenza, Gaia, Alltrails and a couple of others. I think Avenza is probably similar but I liked this one a little better.

Actually, that is their new app. They have both now with a subscription model and a single pay model. I haven't seen that new subscription one as it was still in beta when I downloaded the single pay version.
