Great initiative
Loving this app for bike routes - keep up the great work!Surbhi M
Love the idea! Maps could be improved
I love the idea of this app so much and have used it a few times, however I needed to use some workaround for selecting my destination.
I’m not sure what underlying library or API the team uses for getting map data, but it seems like certain destinations just don’t exist that you’d normally find in most map applications like Google Maps. For example if I wanted to visit a friend at 12 Example St in Townsville, I may need to choose 50 Example St as the other option just doesn’t appear.ABR757

Hi ABR757, Awesome insights, and glad the app is helpful! You are right that sometimes certain destinations do not exist -- we are currently fixing that up for our next update in a few weeks so be sure to check that out in the future update notes :)So helpful!
I’ve loved using this app! It’s been so helpful as someone who bikes a few times a week to have help navigating the best and safest routes.vaultinglover
Beats other mapping apps hands down!
Pointz always routes me on bike- friendly routes, not busy roads with no shoulders like other navigation apps have done for me.Anti-Gods of Rome

Glad to hear that, Anti-Gods of Rome! Thanks for the feedback.Unusable so far
Great idea, but the app is too buggy to use. After making a route, if I try zooming out or scrolling along its path, the map quickly resets back to my current location.Niedertella
Not ready for prime time
Crashes repeatedly during sign in. Frustrating. Good idea but not ready for mass use. Please notify me when it works so I can try again.Dllittleton
Why does this require an account to use?
There’s no reason this app should REQUIRE an account to use. I don’t need to add to the dozens of accounts I already have. Why can’t I browse the map to see safe bike routes without creating an account?ThehandsomeCrtic
Promising Start
I love what you are doing with this app. There aren’t very many reviews at the moment, though, so it would be nice to know where bike lanes and bike paths are. It looks like you already are using bike lane info in your routing, but if you showed it in your map too that would be nice. Maybe an OpenCycleMap base layer would be easy to add?Matt :():
Developer Response
Hi Matt, thanks for the suggestion! Yes, we are working on highlighting bike lanes and paths to our main map screen as you suggested.
