Friends and Networking

Just a suggestion for a possible add-on to the app at some point. I'd love to be able to add friends and then have a 'feed' type system where you can share your rides within the app to all of your friends. Not sure how doable this is, but think it would be a cool feature!

Yep. That's already on the list 🙂

Thanks for the suggestion!

If you're enjoying Scenic and are happy with the support, please leave a nice rating in the App Store. It would mean a lot to me ❤️

I second this, voting it up the feature list ;). I create routes for holiday trips we make several times a year with/for friends as they have no interest or knowledge of doing it themselves.  Now they need to look it up as i make them public (and sort of polluting the public routes feature). This leaves them not adopting the app. With a private friends list it would be easy to share. As you need cloud storage for this, i imagine a credit system for this to get compensated for costs.

Besides the planned ‘friends’ and ‘feed’ concept there is already a way to share routes and rides directly with your friends, without them needing to look it up in the public routes database. You can ‘share’ a link to the route with them.

when you select a route or a ride from your list, there is a ‘share’ button above the map preview. When you tap that a link is created, which you can send to your friends through email, WhatsApp, etc. Everyone with the link can open it and see the route. From that page they can add it to their Scenic account and/or download a GPX if they don’t have Scenic. Have a look here for more explanation and quick video tutorial on this: https://scenic.app/knowledge-base/sharing-routes-rides/
