What’s new

Version 1.7.1 · Updated October 25, 2026

New: 3D Flyover videos - Turn any trip into a cinematic video. The camera flies in from above and follows your boat in 3D along your track over the satellite map, all the way to the last mooring. - Your track is colored by speed, and a data line shows the day of the trip, the local time, your speed and the miles sailed. - Anchorages and harbors where you stopped get a pin with the place name, and the video pauses briefly so you can read it. - Your photos pop up as polaroids from the spot where you took them. - At the end, a summary with distance, duration, top speed and average speed. - Choose the format (Stories, square or widescreen), a length of 10 to 90 seconds, the zoom, and your boat: dinghy, monohull or catamaran. - Find it in Tools → Social Media Export → Video. The video is created on your device; nothing is uploaded. Improved -The Social Media Export assistant now shows larger photo and video tiles, and 3D Flyover is at the top of the template list with a live preview.
