FAQ
How does Atlas provide navigation?
Atlas offers turn-by-turn spoken directions for your permitted route, ensuring you can keep your eyes on the road. It can route you through multiple states and permits if applicable, with seamless split trip functionality.
Can I use Atlas offline?
Yes, routes are stored on the device once loaded. This means navigation will not be interrupted if you go offline or encounter spotty cell signals, though map detail might degrade.
What happens if I go off route with Atlas?
Atlas provides off-route alerts, both visually and audibly, if you drift from your designated route. This helps you stay on track and avoid potential issues.
Does Atlas work in the background?

A link must be generated using the Atlas web application to open an order in the app. Without this link, Atlas cannot be used for navigation.
Is Atlas a replacement for my permit?
