### 3/5 — システム改良願い

*2020-06-27*

検索の段階で高速や有料都市高速などを使用するかしないかを入力出来たら 大分 使い勝手はいいのですが…
最短時間考慮なのか？いきなり高速にあげられます(´･ω･`)下道オンリーもあるyo

**Developer response:** Navi DirectionsXのご利用ありがとうございます。ご要望の高速利用などの運転オプションはiOSのMapsアプリにはありますが、アプリ開発用には公開されていないのが現状です。高速道路などを利用しない場合は、経由地（iOSのMapsアプリでは未対応）を設定していただくとご希望に近いルートが表示されると思います。
その他ご要望ご意見がありましたら遠慮なくお知らせください。
