What Premium adds

Four things Premium adds to the free film.

The same moment of a film twice, side by side, on day 2 at 129.7 km as the route crosses into Italy at Gorizia. On the left, in Daylight, the map is green with a blue sea and an orange track. On the right, in Dark slate, the map is near-black with a navy sea and the track in a lighter orange. — **More looks**Five more looks for the map: Overcast, Paper, Golden hour, Dark slate, and Time of day, which follows the sun: Dark slate at night, warm around sunrise and sunset, Daylight through the day.

A film frame filled by a photograph of a rider in a stone tunnel, a church tower in the sunlit village beyond. In the bottom corner, a small map tile carries the orange route. — **Photos first**Your photos and clips fill the frame, and the route keeps drawing itself in the corner.

Day 2 of 5: mountains drawn in 3D, Kanin labeled 2,587 m, the longest climb reading 244 m — Relief, peak, climb

Day 2 of 5: 152.9 km, 1,283 m, 5 h 06 — Day card

A photo of a canal in town, shown over the map — Photo, where taken

An action-cam clip over the map — Clip, where shot

Day 5 of 5: 465.0 km, 292 m — The day's numbers

The mountains stand up off the map, and the peaks carry their names and elevations, Kanin at 2,587 m here. The longest climb gets called out with its average grade.
Each day opens on a card with its distance, elevation gain and moving time.
Photos land on the route where you took them, by the time they were taken. If a camera's clock was off, fix it once and everything shot on that camera moves together.
Rest days stay in as rest days instead of getting dropped.
Clips play where they were shot. A four-minute file usually holds two or three keepers, and you can pull out more than one.
The numbers stay on screen all the way, and the film picks out the highest point, named passes with their elevation and the spot where you crossed a border.
