1. Go to the phone Settings
2. Go to Apps
3. Go to Manage Apps
4. Tap on “...” (upper right)
5. Go to Default Apps
6. Go to Browser
7. Select “Chrome” (or any other browser)

Colors on snowmobile trails represent the trail status. Here's what each color means:

- Green: The trail is available (open).
- Yellow dotted: The trail has limited availability (open, but not optimal). Snowmobilers enter with the understanding that they should exercise extreme care and reduce speed.
- Red dotted: The trail is unavailable (closed).
- Blue: The trail status is unknown. Depending on trail conditions, the trail could be open or closed, but we don't know the official status.

Trail status is defined by the snowmobile club or association in the region concerned. For the moment, the visibility of trail status is only available in some regions.

When the snowmobile season is over (usually in April/May), all snowmobile trails are removed from the map for safety reasons and to preserve the quality of the trails. The trails will be displayed again at the start of the next snowmobile season (usually in December).

Yes, it is possible to use the BRP GO! Navigation map in Dark mode, in addition to Light mode.

To change the map display mode on your phone:

Change the display mode from your phone's Settings (Display & Brightness).

Simply download map areas in the map in advance to ensure that the vast majority of navigation features will work at all times, even without a cellular network.

However, if you are doing a group ride, it won't be possible to track your friends' location on the map when you have no network. This feature requires a network connection for you and your friends.

Not to worry, we are also making a new accessory available – the Glovebox Extension with Mobile Phone Heated Pocket; so that you can still use the app and all of its functionalities on your Ski-Doo model in a safe manner while riding.
