Guide · Recording

Record a route

Start, pause and stop a recording, then name the route you made.

Find it in the app
  1. Map screen
  2. Bottom sheet

Recording is three buttons: Start, Pause and Stop. Yut saves every point as it comes in, so nothing is lost if the phone dies or iOS closes the app.

  1. Wait for GPS locked on the sheet, then tap Start tracking.

  2. Put the phone away. Yut keeps recording with the screen locked.

  3. Need a break? Tap Pause, then Resume when you set off again.

  4. Done? Tap Stop, name the route and tap Save.

1. While you record

Yut recording a route: the orange line drawn behind the blue dot, the timer at the top and the figures and Pause and Stop buttons at the bottom
  1. RECORDING and the time so far.
  2. Your route, drawn as you go.
  3. Distance so far.
  4. The precision mode. See High precision or Battery saver.
  5. Time, average pace and climb. See Read your numbers.
  6. Pause stops the clock.
  7. Stop ends and saves the route.

2. Pause and resume

Pause when you stop for lunch or load the bike on the truck. Nothing you travel while paused counts toward the distance, the time or the climb.

A paused recording: the capsule reads PAUSED, the figures are dimmed and an orange Resume button replaces Pause
  1. PAUSED — the clock stands still.
  2. A Paused chip, and the figures dim.
  3. Resume picks up where you are now.
  4. Stop still works while paused.

3. Stop and name it

Stop saves the route at once, then asks for a name. You can skip it: an unnamed route is called by its date and time, such as Tue Sep 29, 8:59 AM.
