How List Hiker works
Connect the apps and devices you already use, and List Hiker turns every hike into accurate, always-current progress on your lists — no spreadsheets, no GPX files, no tracking by hand.
Connect what you already use.
Start by connecting a source. List Hiker syncs your hikes automatically from the services and devices you already hike with.
- Strava — connect once (“Connect with Strava”); your activities flow in and stay in sync. (Powered by Strava.)
- Apple Health — the iPhone app enables automatic syncing with Apple Health — including the Apple Fitness app and activities tracked with your Apple Watch — loading in all your history and keeping new hikes in sync, just like Strava.
- Also supported: Garmin, COROS, Runkeeper, Apple Fitness, Outdooractive, and more — plus direct upload of GPX/TCX/FIT files if you’d rather.
Works with Apple HealthBring your whole history — even from apps you left behind.
Your hiking record probably isn’t all in one place. List Hiker pulls it back together — the hikes you track today and the ones stranded in services you stopped using years ago.
- Import from services past and present — switched trackers over the years? Bring the old exports in alongside your current ones.
- Old spreadsheets welcome — load the spreadsheet you’ve kept your list in.
- Even paper records — snap a photo of a handwritten or printed list and List Hiker reads it beta.
Rediscover hikes you forgot to log.
Some of your best hikes never made it into any app. Only in the iPhone app, List Hiker scans your photos to find and document your previous hikes — from when and where each photo was taken — ready to load onto your record.
Get the app →Every hike, matched to your lists — automatically.
The moment a hike arrives, List Hiker matches your GPS track to the peaks and trail segments you crossed, and updates every list you’re tracking in real time. One hike can count toward several of your lists at once.
- Peaks and full trail segments matched straight from your track.
- Confidence-rated — you always see how certain a match is.
- One hike, many lists — no double-entry.
It cleans up the mess for you.
Real hiking data is messy. List Hiker quietly fixes the problems that throw off a hand-kept list.
- De-duplicates the same hike recorded on two different services.
- Handles early battery death and short or broken tracks.
- Flags the wrong activity type — recorded a hike as a bike ride? List Hiker catches it and helps you fix it.
You’re always in control.
List Hiker does the work, but the final say is yours. If your GPS died before the summit, or a date from an old spreadsheet is off, fix any match in seconds and your progress updates instantly.
- Override or add a peak/segment match.
- Correct a date or activity type.
- Everything recalculates in real time.
Built on the real rules.
Matching a hike is only half the job — every list has its own certification rules, and List Hiker knows them. It checks your hikes so you find problems before you submit.
