### 2/5 — I used restore!

*2026-08-14, version 9.0.2*

How do I find Restore.  It seems to have disappeared. The same issue occurred again

5 Big stars. A friend told  me how to fix my app. I have been using it since 2015 and all of the weather info locked up. I went to the settings in the app and found Restore. Everything fabulous again. 
Love love love that I can see everything again!

### 5/5 — Has been our go to for years

*2026-07-26, version 9.0.1*

We make a significant journey with our teardrop trailer most years. InRoute has been an integral part of planning and execution for all of them.

### 5/5 — Tony Boyd

*2026-07-25, version 9.0.1*

Thank you for the exit numbers!

### 5/5 — Bravo

*2026-07-20*

Franchement je m'en sers depuis pas mal d'années je trouve que la carte n'évolue pas mais autrement très bonne application je regrette un peu le fait qu'une fois qu'on est déjà passé sur la route ça nous laisse la trace ça peut brouiller un peu mais autrement très bonne application

### 2/5 — Doesn’t provide traffic alerts.

*2026-07-18, version 9.0.1*

It is nice for RV route planning but it offers no traffic planning. It kept me on a route where the road was closed and provided no indication of any traffic jams. 

Might try again if traffic is monitored.

### 4/5 — One addition needed

*2026-07-10, version 9.0.1*

This is my go to for RV navigation as it offers more filters than others like RVLife and is cheaper. However, I wish you could filter for grade and not just elevation. A couple of times recently it gave me routes with steep grades that my rig won’t handle. There was a better route, but I had to force it by adding way points to take that route. The routes it chose were also very curvy despite my filtering for least curvy. I recommend anyone using the app to double check the routes before taking them.

### 4/5 — InRoute needs some improvement !!

*2026-07-04*

InRoute needs some improvement.    There should be a way that you can just touch waypoint and change the color and have a pulldown list to mark waypoints as ‘contacted’ or ‘call back’ or ‘supporter’ or ‘not supporter’ for political campaign waypoints.  

There are many other improvements that can be made, but sadly, because you can never get a hold of the writer of this app and speak directly with them, there’s no way to actually help improve it.

**Developer response:** To change a pin's color, you can press and hold on a map pin (or on its Name/ETA pop). For marking points, there are a couple options. First, you could change the pin's Name. On the pin's details screen (select its Name/ETA popup), the Name field at the top is editable. Changing the pin's name will change the name used on the map, in route lists, and announced during voice-guided navigation. Second, there’s also a Notes field further down on that details screen that could be used, and urls and phone numbers become tappable links when you return to that screen. 

Regarding helping to improve inRoute, we love hearing from people! Under the map's "More" button there's a Contact Support button where we respond quickly to any questions or feedback.

### 4/5 — 1000 Miles and still learning

*2026-06-25, version 9.0.1*

After a week of travel with InRoute I have a few observations. I love certain aspects especially the route planning and being able to find gas and rest stops when you will need them. Still trying to figure out a few things like setting way points. When I use a small town like Hill City, WY along the route to get off I70 it takes me to the post office in the center of town not the intersection. Anyway nice tour of these towns if I didn’t have a trailer following me. Overall better than any other app for planning, not quite as good as Google Maps for actual navigation. Blue route is had to see against gray roads, at least on CarPlay.Still learning.

### 4/5 — Fehler schnell behoben

*2026-06-20*

Vielen Dank, jetzt sieht es wieder gut aus!

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für das Feedback. Dieser Fehler wurde in v9.0.1 behoben, jetzt veröffentlicht. Wenn Sie weitere Fragen haben, kontaktieren Sie uns bitte über die Schaltfläche "Mehr" der App > "Support kontaktieren", wo wir schneller antworten können.

### 4/5 — More features than Google  Maps

*2026-06-19, version 9.0*

Only a couple drawbacks. You have to do your own math to measure the distance from points you create. Also, should be able to export a file that can be opened in Google or Apple Maps. To share a map with a traveling companion, they have to download and subscribe to the app. Otherwise InRoute is more robust than the other trip planner apps I’ve tried.

### 2/5 — Love it except one thing

*2026-06-18, version 9.0*

I use this regularly, however, getting it into an excel sheet afterward is a pain. I have to take a route, route it in a well routed order and then submit that sequence to my client. Should be an easy export to csv or excel. I have been told in the past the feature is coming (years ago) and another major update comes without this feature the only work around is setting it to send in an email and then selecting it all and pasting it all in a sheet. But instead of text numbers they put the little image numbers which don’t copy over so I have to then manually type in 1, 2, 3,… etc.  I have been a loyal consumer for almost 10 years and have only ever asked for this one feature. Add this feature and I will bump up to 5 stars. (Another feature would be nice to have is more than 150 sites. I occasionally need to do 300-400 sites or more. That would also be nice.)

### 5/5 — Planificateur et gps exemplaire

*2026-06-15*

J’utilise cet application déjà depuis 2016, je planifie en détail mes voyages de moto. Je suggère fortement de l’utiliser, pas difficile d’utilisation que ce soit lors de la planification ou lors de l’utilisation sur la route comme GPS

### 5/5 — Komplett unterschätzt

*2026-06-12*

Ich nutze die App schon lange für meine Motorradtouren und bin begeistert auch wenn sie nicht dedizieret dafür gedacht ist. Man kann nicht mal Motorrad als Fortbewegungsmittel wählen. (Es gibt Auto, Wohnmobil, zu Fuß)
Dafür gibt es aber eine Routenführung nach Niederschlag, Wind oder Temperatur.

### 3/5 — Best Route Planner But …

*2026-06-10, version 8.8.7*

Best route planner hands down but the Car Play setup needs greater dlexibolity especially the ability to zoom in and out on the fly. Love the close-in landscape resolution in orientation mode.

### 2/5 — Mind of its own

*2026-06-04, version 8.8.7*

Still glitching out even with ignore closed roads. Have to pay close attention after loading route.

### 5/5 — Buena herramienta

*2026-06-02, version 8.8.7*

Ayuda ahorrar tiempo

### 1/5 — Where’s the TRUCK ROUTES

*2026-07-23, version 9.0.1*

I think this app would be a lot better if it was truck gps compatible when routing

### 1/5 — Love paying for an app that doesn’t have support

*2026-06-29*

This app is fantastic when it works!! Unfortunately when it doesn’t work, there is no support. You could spend hours going in circles in their website only to have no resolution. 
Very frustrating especially when you pay for a subscription!

**Developer response:** Hi Krista, sorry for the trouble. We responded to your email about a map search problem in under 5 minutes. At that time, Apple had a rare outage lasting about 30 minutes affecting their map services (that inRoute also uses). We also sent a follow-up email to you as soon as the issue was resolved. It sounds like you didn't receive them. There may be a problem receiving emails from support@inroute.com on your device.

Regarding our website, we haven't had any similar reports so I'm not sure yet. There is a Contact button at the top of every webpage for getting support. Similarly, there are Contact buttons in the app (e.g., "More" > Contact Support) that include version and setting information useful for helping understand/resolve problems. We're happy to help if you have any other questions!

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-06-24, version 9.0.1*

THERE HAS BEEN STREETS THAT EXIST FOR THREE YEARS AND THEY ARE NOT IN THE APP

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2026-06-17, version 8.8.7*

This app has a lot of issues and messes up religiously. If there’s any sort of traffic it will mess ur route up even when you turn on the ignore closed roads and traffic option in the advanced settings

### 1/5 — Needs improvement

*2026-04-21, version 8.8.7*

If there were an option to choose how the route is mapped, that would be a massive improvement. Currently, the app defaults to always go to interstate (maybe fastest) for the next pin. This causes unnecessary U-turns/rerouting that’s insane. Simply adding a stay on same road until next pin, shortest route, etc,so that the most direct path is mapped would be a minimum, for the pro (paid) version. There are other issues, but this is the most severe.

### 1/5 — Horrible UI

*2026-03-24, version 8.8.5*

You guys created the most confusing ui. Fire those developers.

### 1/5 — Fix it now

*2026-03-03, version 8.8.2*

All of sudden paying for a subscription doesn’t manger anymore. They’ll take your money, but won’t provide the services you have spent your money on. Try to restore and they claim there’s no previous paid subscription for your user name. Yet, it shows that you already have an active subscription at the same damn time. When are you going to FIX THIS PROBLEM?! Make it make sense!

### 1/5 — Very frustrating

*2026-02-06, version 8.7.3*

Very poor

### 1/5 — Resize for what poor efficiency?

*2026-02-03, version 8.7.3*

This app is horrible to use for navigation.
Standard functions require conformation while functions that erase all your progress are a single misclick away
The creators of this app seem to hate their customers it’s troubling to require an app with no real support

### 1/5 — Ridiculous limits

*2026-01-05, version 8.7.3*

Who plans a trip with 8 stops? There should NOT be a pay wall to plan an actual trip. All the apps are like this and it’s absurd and ridiculous.

### 5/5 — DRIVER

*2026-09-05, version 9.0.3*

So convenient, I have no complaints

### 5/5 — Great support

*2026-09-04, version 9.0.3*

I lost some of the charts  but was contacted and given specific instructions to restore my app again. Best customer service EVER. 

5 Big stars. A friend told  me how to fix my app. I have been using it since 2015 and all of the weather info locked up. I went to the settings in the app and found Restore. Everything fabulous again. 
Love love love that I can see everything again!

### 5/5 — Permit routing

*2026-09-03*

The most awesome app for routing permits. Especially in Texas 🤣Well worth the investment.

### 5/5 — The bet

*2026-09-01, version 9.0.3*

It’s the best

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-08-31, version 9.0.3*

This app will find the shortest route that includes all of the stops. I can also make manual changes to the order by dragging the item. If I need to cancel one of the stops, I can remove that stop from the route (keeping it on the list if I want), and it will recalculate. I think the app is very well designed and is very reliable. It’s very useful for vacations as well as delivery service services.

### 5/5 — This app keeps getting better and better.

*2026-08-26, version 9.0.2*

I have used this app for years, before with my RV and now for all my trips that we take.  I preplan our routes, sites to see, restaurants and points of interest allowing me to plan our trip from a global perspective.  This allows me to relax when we’re actually on vacation knowing what we’ll be doing and how to accomplish our leisure goals.  It is truly easy to use, you’ll enjoy it too.

### 5/5 — Très utile

*2026-08-19*

Permet de faire mes itinéraires facilement. J’aime beaucoup cette application. Elle fait à 90% ce que faisait BaseCamp (Garmin)

### 5/5 — The best app for any road trip!

*2026-08-16, version 9.0.2*

We have been using this app for over 10 years now and we can say that we cannot travel without it! You can place 150 places of interest on a route, change the colour of each place (say, to note where you will be sleeping overnight), know the distance between stops, and so much more. Amazingly, it can also create for you the shortest travel route connecting 50 and 100 places and it also has a manual option. It also connects  effortlessly with the navigation systems. 

The app is both beautiful and functional AND it has an amazing customer service with REAL PEOPLE addressing all of your questions/issues! 10 stars!!! 😄

### 5/5 — Countryside PCS

*2026-08-16, version 9.0.2*

This system is fairly simple and a must in our business.

### 5/5 — My Go To Routing App

*2026-07-27, version 9.0.1*

This is such a great user friendly routing app. Been using it for maybe ten years and it just keeps getting better. Thank you developers!
