Arrivals and completing tasks

How PathPilot notices you've reached a stop, how to check off tasks, skip stops and finish the run, and what the run summary shows.

Arrival alerts

When a run is going, PathPilot watches for you reaching the current stop, even with the app in the background or the screen off. As you get close (about 150 meters when driving, 100 meters when walking), you get a notification: "Arriving at" and the stop's name. Tap it to open the stop and check off its tasks.

Arrival alerts need location set to always allow, and notifications on. If they're off, PathPilot shows Arrival alerts are off with an Open Settings button. See Location and notifications.

Check off tasks

  1. At the stop, tap each task to tick it as done.
  2. When you tick the last task at the stop, the stop completes and directions to the next stop start after a short pause. You can undo it during that pause.
  3. Or tap Complete stop yourself, for example when a stop has no tasks.

Changed your mind? Tap a ticked task again to untick it.

Skip a stop

Tap Skip stop on the navigation card. The stop is marked skipped and you're guided to the next one. In the run you can also tap Go here next on another stop to visit it first.

Finish the run

  1. When the last stop is done, tap Finish run. You can also finish early from the run's ⋯ menu.
  2. PathPilot asks Finish run? and tells you how many tasks aren't checked. Unchecked tasks stay open. Tap Keep running to go back.
  3. Tap Finish run to confirm.

The run summary

After finishing you see Run complete with the Stops and Tasks done and the Duration. Under Needs follow-up it lists Skipped stops and Unchecked tasks. Tap Done to close it.

If you're offline, the summary says it's saved and will sync when you're back online. See Offline mode.
