Road Sorties is navigation for drivers and motorcyclists who choose the road as the destination. Whether you live for tight switchbacks, alpine passes, or coastal highways, Road Sorties plans routes that prioritize what makes driving worth doing — not just the fastest line on a freeway. CURVY ROADS ROUTING Flip on "Prefer Curvy" and watch your route shift from interstates to the kind of roads people drive for the sake of it. Tuned for sports cars, motorcycles, and anyone planning a weekend ride. SCENIC HIGHLIGHTS See which stretches of your route are officially scenic — the overlay glows on the map so you know exactly where to slow down, roll down the window, and take it in. TURN-BY-TURN VOICE NAVIGATION Now with CarPlay. Clear voice cues that duck your music or podcast during instructions and hand the audio back when they're done. No fighting with your media app over who controls the speaker. MULTI-LEG ROUTING Plan road trips with multiple stops. Set different preferences per leg — fastest to the trailhead, curvy roads on the way home. RV ROUTING Tell Road Sorties your rig's height, width, length and weight, and every route is built around it — avoiding low clearances, weight-limited bridges, and tunnels that ban propane. The route report tells you what it steered around, and why. KEEP NAVIGATING WHEN YOU LOSE SIGNAL Save a route before you leave and turn-by-turn guidance, rerouting and voice keep working with no connection at all. This is the routing data, not map imagery — areas you haven't already viewed will be blank while the map catches up. SHAREABLE ROUTES Build a route, share a link. Friends open it and load the exact same waypoints. No account required. PRIVACY FIRST No user accounts. No tracking. No ad networks. Your location stays on your device. The only thing that ever leaves your phone is the route itself, and only when you choose to share it. BUILT FOR THE REAL DRIVE • Continues navigating when your screen locks or you switch apps • Off-route detection tuned to avoid flapping on weak GPS • Designed for portrait mounting on a handlebar or dashboard Stop letting your navigation app pick boring routes. Road Sorties is for drivers who want the journey to count. No accounts, no tracking, no stored queries. Your trips stay yours.

Plan the miles ahead with an EV trip planner built for both Tesla and other electric vehicles. ForeMile combines your vehicle, battery, route, terrain, weather, and driving profile to estimate energy use and recommend practical charging stops. CHOOSE YOUR FOREMILE EXPERIENCE Select Tesla Owner or Other EV Owner when you begin, then switch experiences anytime from Account if you drive both. Each experience keeps its vehicle and planning logic focused on the EV you selected. PLAN WITH MORE CONTEXT - Calculate traffic-aware routes with projected battery levels. - View the whole journey and numbered charging stops on a map. - See the percentage to charge to at every recommended stop. - Use Current Location, Home, Work, Favorites, recent destinations, saved trips, repeat routes, and return-to-origin trips. - Find nearby Level 2 and compatible Level 3 charging stations with maps and directions. - Filter Level 3 results by charging speed and choose preferred charging networks. - Choose Simple or Advanced Planning Mode. FOR OTHER EV OWNERS Choose from a broad U.S. EV catalog with year, make, model, trim, tire configuration, usable battery capacity, and original range inputs. ForeMile uses the selected vehicle and your driving profile to estimate consumption and charging needs. If your exact battery is not listed, manual battery capacity and original-range inputs help personalize the estimate. Directions can be shared with an available Maps or EV app. FOR TESLA OWNERS Connect an eligible Tesla account to import vehicles, use current vehicle data, use Tesla Location, send a calculated route with ordered stops to the selected vehicle, and compare ForeMile's active-segment estimate with the vehicle's estimate. Premium+ can also send an explicit wake command when a connected vehicle is offline. Connecting a Tesla account is optional for basic route planning. PLANS AND ACCESS Free access includes up to four successfully planned routes per UTC calendar month. Eligible users can try the Other EV experience for three days. After free access, the Other EV experience is available for $3.99 per month or $0.99 for a single route where offered. Tesla experience plans and Premium+ features are shown in the app. The App Store displays the final localized price, billing period, and renewal terms before purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled through the purchaser's Apple Account. ForeMile is a planning aid, not a guarantee of range, charger operation, compatibility, access, or availability. Estimated charging times may vary; follow the recommended charge percentage and confirm each stop before relying on it. Do not interact with the app while driving. Always follow vehicle warnings and traffic laws, maintain an appropriate battery reserve, and confirm the final route before departure. Tesla is a trademark of Tesla, Inc.
