Yeah very specifically above or below. You don’t need to share exact location data (although you’d still need access to it on the local device) - just elevation.

Don’t over engineer it - just an indicator about how much further down the slope or back up the slope the rest of the pack is.

I find it annoyingly frequent that I’m either waiting for mates who have bombed off ahead because I didnt see them pass, or I’m waiting at the bottom for mates who are up the slope waiting for me because they think I’m behind ! Literally hours wasted each trip doing this.

You might think a quick phone call is the solution to this but that’s too clunky. It’d be nice to take out my phone and just quickly see something on the home screen indicating this, or on the watch app.

That's a great idea. A lock screen widget could work really well here, showing the relative elevations of your buddies. You'd have to take your phone out - but you wouldn't have to take your gloves off!

Would also think about ways in which the app could indicate the elevation of others without having to stop, remove the gloves, picking the phone from my pocket, looking at the screen, and putting everything back on every time.

Maybe having different kinds of (infrequent) beeping in specific cases: - when I'm last - when I'm first

This could get old quite quickly thought, just a thought.

So you can know if you’re waiting or catching up
