Drawing Routes
A route is a line connecting multiple points on the map. Use it to mark a patrol path, a planned travel corridor, an evacuation route, or any sequence of locations your team needs to follow.
How to draw a route
-
Tap the Command Grid button (the grid icon on the map)
-
Select Draw Route
-
Drawing mode activates — you'll see a toolbar appear
-
Tap on the map to place your first point
-
Keep tapping to add more points along your path
-
When you're done, tap Finish (or tap the last point again)
-
A dialog appears to name and style the route:
- Label — give the route a name
- Color — pick an accent color
- Description (optional)
-
Tap Create
The route appears on everyone's map immediately.
Editing a route's details
After a route is created you can change its label, color, and description:
- Tap the route line on the map
- Tap Edit
- Update the fields
- Tap Save
You can edit a route's label and style after creation, but you cannot reshape the path. To change the path, delete the route and draw a new one.
Deleting a route
- Tap the route line to open its details
- Tap Delete
- Confirm
Recording a route from GPS
If you want to trace the path you're actually walking or driving in real time, use Route Recording instead. That captures your live GPS track automatically.
