AllTrails as Neurological Laziness
<p>Hiking with AllTrails is like having a mini guide in your pocket. On a backpacking trip this past weekend with my dad, we used the popular navigation app throughout to tell us distances and elevations, look at trail junctions, and generally keep us on course. It can tell you how long a hike will typically take, how much further you have to travel, the average five-star rating of a hike, and will even buzz to let you know when you’ve stepped off trail. To this end, it functions as a guardrail for hikers, reassuring users that they’re safely within the bounds of the hike, making it harder to be lost.</p>
