## What is Land Rover Route Planner?

To be used in conjunction with Land Rover vehicles which are fitted with the next-generation infotainment system, InControl Touch Pro, the Land Rover Route Planner App allows you to navigate from door to door. Before setting out from your home, set your destination from your smartphone and you’ll be directed to your Land Rover as the app detects your vehicle's location. The smartphone app will then automatically sync with your Land Rover's navigation system using the Cloud so your car will be ready to take over navigating soon after you get in. Once you've finished your in-car journey, navigation is then handed back to your smartphone, which provides any final public transport and pedestrian directions to your final destination.

In addition the Route Planner app also allows you to pre-plan trips and holidays by searching for places of interest or restaurants and saving them as favourites from your smartphone. You will then be able to access these saved locations from the in-car navigation system at a later date. 

Note:
• Requires InControl Navigation Account to sign-in. Account can be registered from either your Land Rover’s navigation settings or landrover.here.com.
• As we systematically introduce InControl, specific features, options and its availability remain market dependent. This app requires that your vehicle be fitted with its relevant connectivity package as well as a Micro SIM card with a suitable data contract. 

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

### 1/5 — Can't login

*2026-08-14, version 2.0.1*

I used to be able to log into the app all of a sudden I can't even find a place where I can input my username and password. I've had Customer Service specialist in the health center. Try to diagnose the problem. Help me out. They had me call Apple and Apple said there's a third-party app so there's nothing that they could do. Nothing seems to work anymore. I Google and tried suggestions that I found online and still there's no place for me to put my username and password frustrated

### 4/5 — Works well

*2026-07-16, version 2.0.1*

Works well in my discovery

### 1/5 — Cannot create account

*2026-06-14, version 2.0.1*

Have tried registering a new account and all it does is throw me back to the login screen. So I assumed it had sent me an email to confirm the address but nothing, nothing in spam. Cant really give any more stars as can’t even get into it 🤷‍♂️

### 1/5 — Locked out

*2026-02-04, version 2.0.1*

I have had this app since I purchased my car. I was able to log in and get help but I have not needed it until now. I cannot log in it does not recognize my email so I can’t reset my password. I cannot not create a new profile no where does it ask that. And it is like it is grayed out. How do I use this app.

### 1/5 — Route planning is terrible

*2025-08-28, version 2.0.1*

For a route planner this is terrible. Often doesn’t calculate the best route and unlike Google etc. doesn’t offer multiple routes. Editing a route is infuriating as you have to add multiple waypoints just to make an efficient route. You may as well just buy a paper map and do it the old school way as it would be quicker.

### 1/5 — Total junk

*2025-07-06, version 2.0.1*

Why is this still on the App Store? Hasn't worked in years. Redundant junk. Apple please delete it.

### 1/5 — Total Rubbish

*2025-04-29, version 1.3.1*

It literally delivers absolutely ZERO features it advertises.
Remind you—this app is developed by HERE, which used to be part of Nokia… now you know why Nokia vanished in the dust of the past… yup, as where it belongs.
First, navigation starts off with walking to the car. Hey, it never finds where my car is. My car is right outside my office building but it wants me to walk 2 miles back home—where it was half a day ago.
Then, it doesn’t offer any route options to choose from. Some other reviewers say it does but can’t figure out how to choose one. I was never offered any. Isn’t that the basics of a navigation app? What a failure.
Third, it’s supposed to sync the navigation session to my car’s screen. Yes, it did once—but then never worked from then on. Cellular OK. Account OK. Sign-in OK. Subscription OK. Map update OK. Everything is OK. It just simply refuses to work.
What a huge pile of manure.
Not to mention… GUI is archaic like a coin operated laundromat washer; response is slow as an aging sloth. Just pathetic.

### 1/5 — Let’s the brand down

*2025-04-27, version 1.3.1*

Stopped syncing with car despite reinstalling.  Now

### 1/5 — A Pointless App

*2025-01-21, version 1.3.1*

Not only is this app really bad, what’s the point in it? I really struggle to see any value in the Land Rover InControl account when I can just plug in my phone and use CarPlay without having to pay a ridiculous subscription.

### 1/5 — No way to connect this to my vehicle

*2024-11-20, version 1.3.1*

I am in the app - no idea how to connect to vehicle?  Does not ask for VIN or anything?
