Trim start and end of session

Feature Requests
1

Hi,
First of all thanks heaps for developing this apps, it is so good! A common issue I and some of my mates have is we sometimes forget to stop the app at the end of a run. It’s not too much of a bid deal if you forget while packing your gear, it will mess up a bit your planning time stats but that’s ok. It is more a problem if you start driving with the app still recording, then all your stats will be messed up. I was thinking it would be great to add a feature allowing you to trim your runs. Ideally you could do so from the map since it is pretty easy to work out when you are not in the water from there!
Cheers,
Alex

Hi Alex,
thanks a lot for the feedback, the idea is on our to-do list :slight_smile:

a thing that might help could be to use voice feedback.
If you turn on voice feedback and set it to a lower speed, then while you are back on land, you still hear the voice feedback telling you that you move around at 1km/h or so, and this reminds you to stop the recording.

maybe it is an intermediate solution until we have implemented the feature.

Same here on trimming sessions to delete off- water portions, esp on the few occasions where I drive away before stopping WST recording. I’ve tried voice feedback, but found it too distracting and annoying. Maybe setting it to a really high speed would work better…

Yeah, it is on the list :slight_smile:

Maybe instead of using high speed, you could also increase the interval to 60s or so.

I wish it were possible to set a start point and end point below the board, sail, and fin selection, in that diagram, similar to a video editor. Then, simply delete that section upon request.
I am 67 and take a break about every half hour and don’t think about stopping or restarting that sequence.
Greatest respect for your effort in building and improving this app.
I and all sports enthusiasts who use this app, thank you thank you :+1::waving_hand: Wind​:person_surfing:

Hi,

Thank you for your suggestion.
Yes, the deletion of data will be included in a future version. First, the new version needs to be completed :slight_smile:
Best regards

V2 includes a track editor for trimming the start and end of a session, or removing mid-session segments — useful if you forgot to pause during a break.
