FAQ

Q: What does the MyTrails License / Pro version buy me?
Q: Is this a crippled trial?

MyTrails offers a lot of unique and refined features, and most of them are available for free, without limitation.

However, I have spent countless hours developing this application, and I am asking for a modest sum for some extended features, which can be tried during the initial (and frequently-reset) trial period, and by purchasing a Pro License.

For the list of pro-only features, see the description for MyTrails Pro License.
