## What is Road Sketch?

Teach Driving Visually with Road Sketch

Complex junction ahead? Pull over and explain it in details with Roadsketch, 
Road Sketch is the ultimate map-drawing app for driving instructors and learner drivers. Instead of explaining a roundabout or junction verbally, sketch custom routes on a live Google Map, drop cars and traffic signs, then save and share lesson plans—so students understand exactly what to do when they get behind the wheel.


Why Driving Instructors Love Road Sketch

Draw Custom Routes & Road Layouts: Sketch lanes, arrows, and hazard zones in up to 4 colours to highlight roundabouts, one-way streets, turns, or hazards.
Real-World Map Views: Switch between Street View, Satellite View, and Map View to give students clear visual context.
Place Props & Icons: Drag-and-drop cars, buses, cones, and traffic signs to demonstrate positioning, right-of-way, and common intersections.
Label & Pin Any Location: Annotate exact coordinates or junction names—perfect for lesson planning and junction drills.
Save, Reuse & Update Lessons: Build a library of reusable lesson maps. Open a saved map, edit your drawings or props, and instantly have a fresh scenario.


Built for Instructors & Learners

Whether you’re an ADI, PDI, driving school owner, parent coach, or learner driver:
Visualise Complex Areas: Show students exactly where to position their car on roundabouts, dual carriageways, or tricky junctions.
Explain Mistakes Clearly: Use colored lines and icons to correct lane usage, turning angles, or parking manoeuvres.
Plan Lessons Ahead of Time: Create a “Lesson Plan” folder for each student—review it before you meet, then save your edits for next time.
Boost Student Retention: Engaging visuals help learner drivers understand instructions faster and remember them longer.

Driving schools & academies

### 4/5 — Great app but not  alphabetical

*2025-06-23, version 2.12*

I love using the app and use it regularly for my driving lessons where students can show me their thoughts by drawing on the map. I can save areas, streets etc for easy viewing but they do not save alphabetically. I may be missing something here but I have tried to find a setting.

### 3/5 — Signup bug

*2025-02-19*

When you enter an E-mail account in register section, it says it’s already an account, and when you enter your details in login, it says password is wrong. So you reset your password and a confirmation email is sent - which never comes. Hopefully this gets fixed. I’m excited to use your software when it’s fixed though.
Many thanks.

**Developer response:** Hi, sorry you have had an issue with this. We have many happy customers that have not reported any issues. Please reach out to me direct at jamas@jccodez.com so I can get this resolved for you.

### 1/5 — Can’t sign in

*2024-01-20, version 2.12*

Offers to log you in and sign up with your Apple ID but then says that’s no longer supported and you must create an account with your email address to use the app, no thanks, deleted. Why do you need an account to draw on a map? Looks like I’m drawing on screenshots or getting another app!

Edited for response:
You’re*
Yeah drawing on maps is 100x easier than creating an account👍 passed my practical test without using this app!:)

### 5/5 — Great app for driving instructor

*2024-01-17, version 2.12*

Great app couldn’t work without it. It would have been great if you add  some cars so we can use it to teach students.

### 5/5 — Learn2Drive No Gears

*2023-07-07, version 2.05*

This is definitely my go to app I have been using this for considerable time and have found it invaluable. You can go straight to your location and draw and explain what the learner did at the junction they had just done, you can change the colour and show them how it should be done using the correct lane etc. You can also go onto street view so you can see it from drivers aspect.  
You are able to also do a direct search or safe a junction so you can go to it straight away especially if it’s a different town you are not in or a more complex junction you want to use as a reference but may never go to it to give your learner added knowledge. 
There is a small monthly charge much less than a gallon of fuel but if this is unkept and is reliable then it’s more than worth it. I’m sure most instructors will stick with it once they have used it, and if not simply cancel the subscription

### 3/5 — Unable to see pictures

*2023-01-21, version 2.04*

I have purchased your app and originally I was able to see the photos in the app. It now says ‘ images not found’ , but they are in my photo gallery. Some are show and others not. When I click on the blank picture, it will appear. Can this be fixed

### 1/5 — Cant get it to work on ipad

*2022-08-22, version 2.0*

Ivee recently subscribed to this app, but it wont work on my ipad, only on my phone, any help would be appreciated.

### 5/5 — Gary Anderson

*2022-03-31, version 1.3*

First class app, easy to use to help learner drivers , well worth the monthly fee

### 5/5 — Driving school

*2022-03-20, version 1.3*

I have been looking for a job like this more than one year it’s the best one for ADI to teach the learner and have very good view of the street specially when you teach for roundabout I hope this will continue and updating all the time and the price £3.50 a month it’s value of what we get download it you will never lose⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
