More

3.6.2

May 21, 2024

"With this update, we have revised the entire route planning process. Thanks to thousands of POIs, it is now even easier to configure a tour. Each route now contains three driving options (Curvy, Fast, Balanced) from which you can choose. And for a quicker start to navigation, it can now be started directly from the planning stage without any detours. If you want to share a route with your friends on WhatsApp, Instagram and the like, you can now create a personalized graphic thanks to the new assistant. Give it a try if you like. In response to many requests, we have provided simple video instructions for the most important actions in ROADS in the FAQ section. Many thanks for all the feedback on the last version. We have fine-tuned the route import so that the imported route is as close as possible to the ""original"". There are also various improvements and performance enhancements."

3.5.37

April 9, 2024

This version includes various minor bugfixes.

3.5.32

March 19, 2024

We have once again sharpened the Google Maps import so that the result is closer to the original route. Please note that when importing a Google Maps route, we import the waypoints and connect them using the ROADS algorithm. If you have any questions or comments, you can send us an email via the "Feedback" button in the app settings.

3.5.25

March 6, 2024

By popular request, this update gives you the option of importing routes from Google Maps directly into ROADS. Simply click on ""Import"" when creating the route and copy the link to Google Maps. Give it a try! POIs can now be filtered in the ""Inspiration"" section. This provides a better overview of regions where there are particularly many interesting places to discover. In recent weeks, we have received various feedback on the topic of navigation, particularly with regard to the occasional re-routing. Our current navigation partner Mapbox has provided us with a solution, which is also part of this update. We hope that this will improve the situation noticeably and permanently. In addition, the version contains various bugfixes and the option to deactivate the automated anonymization of license plates in the settings. This can be helpful if text has been unintentionally made unrecognizable when uploading an image. If you have any questions or comments, you are welcome to send us an email via the ""Feedback"" button in the app settings.

Thank you very much for your feedback. With this last update in 2023, you can now upload multiple images in groups within a post at the same time.

We hope you enjoy the new version and would like to thank you very much for the exciting year on ROADS.

Simply click the bell in the top left.

This allows to re-enter the original route even though you may have left it or quit the active navigation - We have further optimized the waypoint calculation to avoid clusters especially in urban areas and crossings which ultimately leads to less irritations while routing - We heavily inreased the amount of editorial stories on the ""Inspiration"" tab.

3.2.259

September 26, 2023

This update brings some performance improvements in the groups section and solves a few minor bugs.
More

3.2.244

September 4, 2023

This update is a must-have for all ROADS users! As you know, we value your feedback very much. Over the past few weeks, this has resulted in three major topics in particular: CarPlay, Navigation and GPX Import. So for this release, we focused on addressing these things with the entire team. As a result, there is now a completely revamped CarPlay experience. The main attention was paid to maximum intuitive usage: Simply select the route on the phone, connect to CarPlay and start navigation. There is also a light map display for better visibility. We also received various reports about re-routing issues within the navigation. In individual cases, this could lead to disruptions on the route. This is now completely fixed and the navigation works as it should. The same applies to the import of GPX routes. These are now selectable on any device. In addition, there are various usability improvements, especially in the groups area. There we have redesigned the categories.

3.2.161

August 1, 2023

Thanks to the new "pass by" feature, a waypoint can now be passed by instead of having to approach it directly. This allows you, for example, to drive "via" Stuttgart without being directed into the city center. Many thanks to Christian from the ROADS community for the great idea. For further details please have a look at the new help section in the route planner. We have further extended the group area. YouTube videos can now be displayed and played directly. ROADS can also automatically create a post when a route is shared with a group. With this update, the "What's New?" dialogs have been removed from the app. From now on, all news can be found in the "Welcome To ROADS" group. If you are not a member yet, please feel free to join it.

Reviews of Roads by Porsche

  • User-generated routes gone on map tab

    While the auto-generated routes are a cool feature, I’m really struggling to see why user-generated routes were removed from the map tab in the app. Yes, I know I can see “best routes in the region” on the home tab and my favorited routes are still accessible, but I can no longer see what other app users may have created near me which is incredibly frustrating. I’m not sure why user-generated AND auto-generated routes can’t BOTH be visible on the map tab; that would keep everyone happy. Limiting the way we can use the app just feels like bad design. Also, I noticed when I do choose a user-generated route, it no longer takes me directly there and instead tries to make a “fun route” on the way there. While this might work for some users, I would rather just get to the route I wanna check out ASAP and do that route. Once again, options would be nice here. Please consider this feedback; I’ve really enjoyed using this app for about a year and these recent updates are admittedly disappointing.
  • Needs work

    Please bring back the map function to explore other area’s routes. The auto generated routes are cool but the real gem of this app was giving the users the ability to record their own route and share it with their friends/local backroad enthusiasts. If I could go back to the previous rendition of the app i would in a heartbeat, this new version is not user friendly
  • Good concept but not functional enough to execute

    I really like the idea of what the app is. I like that it can generate routes to give you a new experience. But like other reviews, it doesn’t allow for deviations from the route if you want to take in the scenic aspects of your route. My biggest frustration is that you can’t change/inverse the direction of your route when you generate it. Even when choosing a starting point, what if I want to start going straight but the app makes me do a U-turn instead. It’s things like this that makes me frustrated and enough to never open the app or outright delete it. Good concept but it needs more work.
