Komoot Makes Apple Watch Navigation Truly Offline

Komoot now provides true offline maps and routing on Apple Watch, letting you download a 3 km-wide map strip around your route and a 5.5 × 5.5 km area around your recording so you can navigate without phone or cellular; maps refresh every 7 days and you only need to unlock the region (no extra subscription). Upcoming tweaks include live route editing, auto rerouting, live tracking, broader map views, and customizable data fields.

Strava's Instant Workouts: Big Idea, Rough Execution

Strava’s Instant Workouts aims to deliver five weekly workouts across four categories with auto route suggestions, leveraging Runna data and subscription access. In practice, the feature is hampered by wonky pace estimates (often based on outdated data), impractical route ideas (such as looping around a block), and a lack of push-to-device support, with Garmin/Apple integration promised but uncertain. It has real potential to differentiate Strava if it fixes routing accuracy and adds seamless device syncing.
