Insta360 cycling overlays
GPS overlays for Insta360 cycling footage
Insta360 cameras record GPS only when paired with a GPS-enabled remote or a phone. For cycling overlays you do not need either: reframe the clip in the Insta360 app as usual, then sync it with the FIT, GPX, or TCX file your bike computer or phone recorded, and TrainCraft draws the telemetry on top.

Why this matters
A cycling-first browser workflow
TrainCraft focuses on the practical cycling result: combine ride data with footage, check timeline alignment, choose useful telemetry, and export. Compared with traditional overlay workflows, it reduces desktop setup and keeps FIT, GPX, TCX, finished-video, and transparent-overlay options in one tool.
| Need | TrainCraft | Old tools |
|---|---|---|
| Setup | Open the browser editor, add video, choose a synced ride or upload FIT/GPX/TCX. | Install and configure an older desktop overlay tool. |
FAQ
Do I need the Insta360 GPS remote for overlays?
No. The overlay uses your ride file as the telemetry source, so any bike computer, watch, or phone app that exports FIT, GPX, or TCX replaces the remote.
Can I use 360 footage directly?
Reframe the 360 recording into a standard video file in the Insta360 app first, then upload that file. The editor works with browser-playable video.
Which Insta360 models work?
Any model whose exported clip plays in the browser, including Ace-series and reframed X-series footage. The ride file supplies the telemetry.
