As a free user to Trailforks, you will have free basic usage the map. You'll be able to see the basic topo map, trails, and points of interest for one downloaded region. You are limited to 1 downloaded region at a time, so if you travel out of state, you will have to upgrade to Trailforks Pro, or remove and download another region. As a free user, your home screen will show the option to 'Upgrade to Pro.'
With a free account, you'll be able to see the basics of the region you've downloaded, including limited access to content beyond the map such as trail reports, photos and videos. However, many of the features beyond that basic map are now paywalled. You will need to subscribe to Trailforks Pro to get access to all the features and data in the app & website, such as the popularity heatmap, offline search, 3D maps, and much more.
We hope that users find enough value in the wide array of features Trailforks offers to subscribe to Trailforks Pro. But if that is not in your current budget, or you only need light basic map usage, you can now get more map content as a free user. We'd rather have users still using the app as a free user and contributing to the community with trail reports or photos than to turn people away because the map is greyed out.
Here is a breakdown of the features & functionality available as a Free user and Trailforks Pro user:
