Awesome driving app

I’ve been waiting years for an app like this. I drove my Porsche Club chapter and CarPlay worked great. When we made a wrong turn with no cell signal, the app still rerouted us back on track, which
I’ve never seen in any other app. The offline routing is amazing. Planning routes is also easy on the computer or the phone, and when I edit a route, I don’t have to share a new link with my group every time.
It’s seamless. Anyone who wants to take a road trip should use this app.

Exactly what I was looking for
