# Turn One Walk Into a Clear Route Card

Choose a single recorded segment in FogAway, read its route, distance and time, then preview the picture before sharing. A New York demo shows what to look for.

One walk can tell a complete story: where the path went, when it happened, and how far you travelled. In FogAway, a single segment has its own share card, so you can choose the part of a day you want someone else to see.

This example uses a constructed walking route on public roads in New York. It is demonstration data rendered by FogAway, not a record of a trip we took.

## Give the route a clear boundary

*Demo route rendered by FogAway. The date, distance and duration describe this sample segment; they are not a suggested itinerary or a walking target. The original map attribution is retained.*

Start with the map. The path sits on a labelled street map, making it possible to recognise the area and follow the shape of the walk. Shared route cards leave the fog off the map so the line remains visible.

Then read the date and time above it. They identify the selected segment. The distance and duration below the map refer to that same segment. If a card also includes a separate whole-day distance, keep that wider total distinct from the walk you selected.

A clear time boundary helps the picture make sense on its own. Someone seeing the card should not have to guess whether it covers one outing, a full day or every route saved in the app.

## Pick the segment before sharing

Open the recorded day in FogAway's log or timeline. Find the segment you want to show and use that segment's share action. The share button for the whole day opens a different scope, so check the preview before exporting.

Look at the complete card: the route, title, date, distance and time should describe the same outing. Choose the appearance that keeps the path and labels easy to read, then share the resulting image.

## Give the preview a second look

Street detail is useful, but it can also reveal a place you would rather keep private. Check the beginning and end of the route as well as the middle. If the picture includes a home, workplace or another sensitive stop, keep it private or choose a different segment.

Keep the card intact when you post it, including its map attribution. Add a short caption if the reader needs context, and say when an image uses demonstration data.

FogAway is a footprint journal for iPhone. You can [see how it works](https://fogaway.pages.dev/) and choose a recorded walk to share when you are ready.
