Does ForkSight work on user-created routes, or only on Trailforks routes?

Also everytime you stop it will show you what trail heads you are by.

Thanks. I understand now that you really don't even have to load a trail at all, just start riding using the Mountain profile, and if the trail is in Trailforks, ForkSight will just work. Is that correct?

Hi. I'm a new 530 user and I'm getting a map pop up during mountain biking every time I stop. Is this a Forksight feature? Thanks.

Yes, that's the ForkSight feature which can be turned on/off for your profile.
