    @isazi yes you can reverse the route in the watch and get the correct directions, altitude profile and climb pro. At least in fénix 6x pro

      @isazi In the 530 you have to reverse the route previously, in the app or web, not possible in the device. Never tried but is what I have read.

      True. In the etrex it was possible to do it on the device .

        @jorgefd78 but you have to ask the watch to reverse course, right? Or you can just follow a route in reverse?

            @markytarky just a newbie question what’s the difference between this and classic GPX you follow ?
            I’m interesting if it’s help to be more precise when you have many small path to follow.

              @g287-sf well, here the plotaroute creates a waypoint on each turn a norifies you twice to make a turn. Once after you pass a WP (it tells you how far the next turn is plus the direction e.g. sharp right or keep left, etc.) and second when you reach the WP. That’s it. No other differences.

                Hello.
                Is Kamoot and Plotaroute the only choices to plan and upload to S9 turn by turn navigation? Do you know other possibilities?
                By the way. Visual indicator would be very useful.

                  So a quick question that I asked in another thread… turn by turn does NOT work on trail routes created but only on roads?

                    All apps or Web services that enable to create routes gpx files including turn indications with WPs naming may work.
                    I use Locus Map and it works (just gpx import need to be done through external service (not direct import in SA) like QS or Runalyze).

                        Thanks. Will keep trying to figure it out as it hasn’t worked for me yet and trying to find why.

                          @derrick-spafford how do you import the gpx route in SA?

                            I pulled the GPX route from Strava. Uploaded it to Komoot and then sent it to SA to use in watch. Route shows but no turn to turn.
                            I tried this with creating a planned route but also a recently run route.

                            I have an old custom Movescount Sport mode that I use (with Optical HR disabled) that I was wondering if that was the problem, but used other default sport modes and still no luck. Did a master reset and will try reinstalling software to see if that helps.

                              @mff73 Thank you for the hint 👍. I also plan my routes using Locus maps. I have to try.
