Footpath 3D terrain maps and more
We’ve just launched major new updates for iOS, Android, and Web that add high resolution 3D terrain mapping across the globe, for any of our map styles.
As a Footpath Elite subscriber, you can tilt, rotate, and zoom your maps to scope out mountains and canyons from every angle to prepare for your next adventure.
Combine this with our Satellite Live maps or Slope Angle shading for clearer understandings of potential winter avalanche conditions.
On mobile, offline map downloads include the 3D terrain data, so you can take your 3D maps with you into the backcountry.

Additional updates in the mobile apps
In addition to 3D maps, Footpath 5.0 for iOS and Footpath 3.0 for Android bring a number of new updates.
Updated designs
Footpath has been updated with new designs, and support for Liquid Glass and dark mode on iOS. Dark mode support for Android will be coming in a future update.
Smarter route time estimates
Cue sheet time estimates now take elevation into account, including steep and technical grades, longer distance fatigue, and high altitude, giving you a more realistic idea of how long your route may take.
GPS tracking improvements
A new GPS processing algorithm provides more accurate elevation gain across devices. You can also toggle between elapsed and moving time on saved GPS tracks, and Android users can now long press data fields in the GPS Tracker to customize their screen.
Map rendering improvements on Apple Watch
Our custom Apple Watch map renderer has been updated with many quality and performance improvements, including road and trail labels when panning and zooming the maps, and better support for compass rotation.
T-Mobile Satellite support
Footpath now supports T-Mobile Satellite on iOS and Android, allowing you to load maps and snap routes to trails even when you’re deep in the backcountry.
Manage favorite places from the search screen Elite
Manage all of your saved favorite places right from the search screen. You can also delete past searches from your search history.
Android Health Connect support
The iOS app has long supported Apple’s Health app, and we’re pleased to add support for Health Connect on Android. Save recorded GPS workouts to Health Connect to count towards your daily health metrics.
