Perfect

My go to app for planning running and cycling routes.

Phenomenal Route Planning App

Use this app very frequently to plan any walks or drives.

Indispensable pour découvrir le monde !

L’outil et les cartes indispensables si vous voyagez…

Running app that makes sense

I love this app and its features. It is easy to tell the routes and where they go and find it clean and easy to understand.

Fantastic app

An absolute fantastic app making it easy to write walks and follow the route. Best walking app on the market

Major roads aren’t footpaths as far as I’m aware…rubbish

I’ve been using this app for a while, the free version I might add, if you map things little by little it’s ok but if you want to map from here to there it takes you on major roads 🤯 I’m a runner! I don’t think running down a dual carriageway or motorway is a safe footpath, very disappointing

Navigation

Really simple intuitive programme which you can build a plan in seconds.

The BEST

Use this app every day for years to plan out my runs, bike rides, and walks. Amazing to track and add up accurate mileage! Couldn’t recommend it more !!

Easy to use

Works great for measuring and preplanning routes.

Wish had follow along arrows

Please add change of colors, and arrows in directions to follow along love the concept though

Ah

Yeas

Facile et précise

Cette application est l’une des meilleures, simple d’usage et tellement précise ! Je recommande à tout les coureurs et marcheurs.

Perfect running app for me

I’ve never left a review on the App Store but I’ve been using this app for about a month and it’s exactly what I was looking for. I can plan a route and see how many miles it’ll be and I can track my route to see my pace and how far I’ve gone. That’s all I need and this app is so simple and perfect for that! Devs, pls don’t change a thing

Great for Roads and Trails

A great app for finding trails and custom driving routes. I started using this app as a metro bus driver to help me save and learn routes. Some streets didn’t snap, but it has the option to manually draw routes.

As a hiker and trail runner, I have gotten to love this app to plan my runs. It shows both paved trails and dirt trails. It allows me to categorize the trails or routes in groups. And the subscription price is reasonable.

Best (of many) I’ve used

I’ve been having too much fun drawing gravel bike routes to explore (and then riding them) . The drawing function - on an iPad - is excellent, and the app is really well designed (good set of features) and well implemented (haven’t hit a bug yet). It’s not so useful unless you subscribe to store maps, but the annual cost is entirely reasonable. And they don’t ensnare you into some social media/advertising scheme (which I hate) as most apps do. Perfect for road, gravel, mountain bike route planning

Fun and easy to use

This is an excellent, easy to use route guidance app whether it’s for wilderness hikes or walking the streets in towns and cities. I have used it several times for both types of environment, and find it easier to create and use maps than other popular apps I’ve tried.
I appreciate that the developer allows users to create maps and plan routes without having to subscribe at that point, needing only to subscribe to use certain features and to navigate. Subscriptions are month by month, not annual, so it can easily be cancelled once it is no longer needed.
The only thing I don’t like is the robotic sounding voice used for navigation guidance!

Emailed for help no response

My app keeps freezing on os maps. Loses things etc. I’ve deleted reinstalled. I have fast fibre stable still getting periodic issues and not always snapping.

Couple of points to consider

First, if you are on a hike and decide to turn back for any reason you need to stop the hike you are currently on, and program a new hike beginning at your current location and ending at your starting location. To me, this is a huge safety flaw as returning to start point is likely to be your first choice when something goes wrong during your hike (injury, unexpected conditions on the trail, unexpected weather changes, etc.). This should be an easy to use feature with one button or easy-to-find screen option. In short, the app is great for planning a hike, but not so great at keeping you safe if things change.

Second, on the Apple series watches it is difficult to toggle between the map-screen and the cue-sheet as the icons are small with a confusing layout. (No direct toggle). Apparently, it’s easier on the Apple Watch Ultra as that watch has a function button that can be programmed to do this.
