Hi, The app looks great, but I really struggled to understand the manual. I just wanted to know the basics of how to get started. After an hour or more of looking through the manual and trying different things, I had got nowhere.



I found this guide on a walking website which guided me through step by step. I don't want to offend anyone, especially those who spent a lot of time creating the manual, but I found these instructions much clearer on this website http://www.walkingclub.org.uk/walking/How-To-Map-Walk-Routes-On-Android.shtml">http://www.walkingclub.org.uk/walking/H ... roid.shtml">http://www.walkingclub.org.uk/walking/How-To-Map-Walk-Routes-On-Android.shtml (see bottom of page...section titled: Running Oruxmaps).



I will probably refer back to the manual when I get need to use the advanced features, as it looks really detailed, but I think any beginner (and semi IT literate person like myself) may find this alternative guide a little easier.



Thanks again to all the developers.
