Rerouter - Open Links in Maps

August 30, 2023

Fixes a bug where some URLs that would otherwise reroute in Safari wouldn't in the main application. Thank you to those who submitted feedback about this.

Just about every bug fix and tweak in this update came directly from user feedback. I owe a huge thank you to everybody who emailed me. Thank you and to thanks to everyone else using Rerouter as well. Enjoy! - In Safari, users can now toggle whether or not they would like to "pause" Rerouter. In the past, Rerouter was off by default, and the extension asked if the user would like to "enable" it—which was a confusing, unnecessary step. - A new feedback form, powered by Google Forms, has been added to the main app. This is a great place to report any bugs, request new features, or just generally reach out to me. I'm always happy to hear feedback! - Rerouter's algorithm now supports search-oriented URLs like "...maps/search/." - Fixed a bug where attempting to reroute an invalid URL in the main application would lead to a crash.

Rerouter has been updated to work more reliably and now work with a wider range of Google Maps URLs, including shortened ones like "goo.gl." Additionally, a new "Setup Guide" has been added with easier instructions and a video. Thanks for using Rerouter!

Use Rerouter's new Shortcut to convert Google Maps URLs in whatever way you see fit. After updating, just open the Shortcuts app and select "Rerouter" on the main page to dive in!

- You can now reroute links from within the Rerouter app. Just paste a Google Maps link into the text box and voilà! - Rerouter can now be toggled on and off from within the Safari Extension pop-up. This replaces the previous "Automatic" and "Manual" modes. - Rerouter can now handle a greater variety of Google Maps URLs. This means that not only should Rerouter work in more situations, but it should also work faster! Thank you for using Rerouter and a special thanks to those who have emailed me feedback. Enjoy!

- Temporarily pause Rerouter for the remainder of a browser session. Just tap the Rerouter icon in your Safari, then select "Pause." When you're done, tap "Enable." Rerouter will automatically be reset at the end of the browser session. - Improved support for more google domains, specifically two-part top level domains like ".co.uk" and ".co.jp".

This update squashes a few issues related to opening "goo.gl" short-links and adds support for rerouting extremely general locations (like "France"). Thank you to everyone who sent emailed me about these bugs. It was a huge help!
