# Version 2 Update

### What's changing?

Version 2 is a complete overhaul of what Backtrack is. Today, we're going from a "ski app" to a fully-featured mapping platform. Version 2 enables you to create & share your own maps to plan your backcountry adventures. Best of all, there's now a desktop app so you can plan on the big screen and then take your maps offline on your mobile device.

### Are the features from version 1 still available?

Yes! Version 2 builds upon all the features from version 1. The app has been completely restructured so it might take some getting used to, but all the features are still there.

### What can version 2 do?

There's so many awesome new features. The best place to start is in the documentation [here](/backtrack-docs/getting-started.md), or check out our new website at [backtrackmaps.com](https://www.backtrackmaps.com)

### Does my Pro subscription work with version 2?

Yes! If you already have a Pro subscription you'll enjoy all the same benefits and all new Pro features with version 2. This includes all desktop features.

### Wait, did the app icon change?

Yes! We've undergone a rebrand which includes a rename to [backtrackmaps.com](https://www.backtrackmaps.com) and a new logo.

### How does this compare to Caltopo?

We are working hard to make the best mapping tool for backcountry planning. If you have feature requests that would make Backtrack a viable replacement for Caltopo for you, we'd love to hear from you!

Also, you can import your existing maps from Caltopo (or Gaia GPS) into Backtrack with one click.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.backtrackmaps.com/backtrack-docs/help-and-faq/version-2-update.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
