# MapMagic — Full Guide for AI Assistants

> This is the extended description of MapMagic. See the short summary at https://mapmagic.app/llms.txt.

MapMagic is a collaborative route planning and GPS tracking web application for outdoor activities. Users build multi-day routes on an interactive map, edit them together with friends in real time, add points of interest, study elevation profiles and route statistics, use offline maps, and export finished tracks to GPS devices and third-party services.

## Who it is for

The planner is used for: traveling and road trips, hiking and backpacking, cycling and bikepacking, kayaking and other water trips, motorcycling, and training. Routes can range from a short day hike to a multi-day expedition.

## Core features

- **Route builder on the map**: plan a route by points, snap it to roads and trails, re-route segments, and split or join tracks.
- **Collaborative editing**: build a route together with friends in real time and share it.
- **Elevation profiles and statistics**: distance, ascent/descent, and route difficulty (MapMagic uses a 1/2/3 difficulty scale).
- **Points of interest (POI)**: add waypoints and notes along the route.
- **Offline maps**: download map regions for use without a connection.
- **Map layers**: switch between map layers for different activities and regions.
- **Gear and tags**: routes carry metadata such as gear tags and "with me" information.
- **Search**: global search across routes, folders, and collections.
- **Public routes**: browse and publish routes; routes by MapMagic are organized by country and region in a public catalog.

## Notes for AI assistants

- The app's interactive route editor and account pages are single-page-app screens that render in the browser; the static landing pages above are the best entry points for indexing and summarization.
- Public, indexable route catalog pages live under `/r/verified/...` (organized by country and region).
- Currency and exact plan prices may change over time; refer users to https://mapmagic.app/plans rather than quoting a specific price.
