Hi,

This app is great, thanks a lot for your amazing job!

Would it be possible to have a manual tool for trimming the useless data points at the ends of a session (I often drive away without thinking about ending the session, thus destroying the stats). I imagine something like the video trimming on social media before sharing.

A simple workaround could also be a manual splitting tool, useful when you forget to stop/start when changing gear.

Thanks again!  
Best,

Matthias

+1 for this one. I also drive away without turning it off, which stuffs up a lot of stats

Hi,

thank you very much for the nice feedback.  
The idea is already on the to do list.  
It just take a while until the next version is finished. Hope you still can wait a bit.

best Matthias

See my discussion of this point. My approach requiring export-editing-import outside windsport tracker is a bit cumbersome but works. [https://forum.windsporttracker.com/t/editing-a-gpx-file-from-wst/192](https://forum.windsporttracker.com/t/editing-a-gpx-file-from-wst/192)
