Electroute is the EV trip planner that just works — no subscription, no account, and turn-by-turn navigation that keeps going even with no signal. WHAT MAKES ELECTROUTE DIFFERENT • No subscription — ever. The core is free. • Offline maps — free. Download your region once; the map, routing, chargers and places come with you. • Turn-by-turn navigation offline — free. Real voice-guided directions with zero connection. • Private by design — your location and trips never leave your iPhone. No account, no tracking, nothing sold. Most EV apps lock offline maps or navigation behind a monthly fee. Electroute doesn't. PLANS AROUND YOUR BATTERY Tell it your car and charge, and Electroute simulates your range across the whole route — real elevation, speed and weather — so you know before you leave whether you'll make it. If you can't make it on one charge, it inserts the fewest, best charging stops and guides you to each one. WHAT YOU GET • Turn-by-turn voice navigation that works fully offline. • A battery-aware plan that tells you your arrival charge before you go. • Thousands of charging stations, filterable by speed (50 kW, 150 kW, 350 kW+). • Works in dead zones, tunnels and mountain passes where other apps quit. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick your car and set your current charge. 2. Choose where you're going. 3. Electroute plans the route with any charging stops you need. 4. Start navigation and drive. For EV drivers who want to leave range anxiety — and subscriptions — behind, and just drive. Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors. Charging data © Open Charge Map contributors.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RTC at none against Electroute's 1. RTC also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
