What's New in TouchRoute

2.0

November 4, 2026

Rebuilt for iPhone and iPad, including iPhone Duo TouchRoute has been rebuilt from the ground up, with a layout that adapts to any screen size. • Works on iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo. On wide screens, your route list and the map sit side by side. On narrow screens, it's a simple list that opens into the map. • A fresh look. The map screen has new controls that stay clear of the camera and the screen edges. • Easier setup. Settings has a new layout. Activity now says "On Foot", which covers walking, running and hiking, or "Driving". A clear how-to guide is built in. • Smoother route sharing. Share a route as GPX or as a TouchRoute file, with the share sheet appearing right next to the route you chose. • Improved route building. Long-press the map to add a pin the moment you hold, and direction arrows follow the route. • Better place names. City names for saved and imported routes are more reliable. Importing a GPX file now always finishes filling in its places. • Updated purchases. The unlimited-routes purchase uses Apple's latest purchase system. Your existing purchase carries over, and Restore Purchases works as before. Your saved routes and settings stay as they are.

So useful for long walks

I have used this app many times when walking sections of the UK South West Coast Path, to work out how far a planned walk will be. It seems very accurate. I thought the steep climbs and drops might result in it underestimating distances, but it seems to get it right.
It would be nice if it was also an iPad app.
As an app developer myself, I wish I had created an app such as this!

So simple!

I love how simple and easy this app is to use. I love that you can share routes, so there is no “social” aspect to it. I would love to be able to change the name of my routes though.

Easy for walking route

Super easy touch and set a route on the map. Great for walking routes.

Privacy

I love the fact that this app isn’t monitoring me and lets me plan out my runs and walks.
