PermitNav turns your state oversize/overweight (OSOW) trucking permit into the exact permitted route — with turn-by-turn navigation built for heavy haul. Snap a photo or upload the PDF of your state permit and PermitNav reads the routing table and rebuilds the precise route across the roads your permit names — then guides you down it, turn by turn. WHY DRIVERS USE IT • Permit-to-route in seconds — no manually typing in every road. • Follows the permitted roads exactly, in the right direction, for the right distance. • Every turn is checked against your permit, so you know the route is right before you roll. • Low-clearance, weight, and width warnings on the roads ahead. • Voice-guided turn-by-turn, posted speed limits, and live speed. • Driver logbook: miles today, drive time, and time since your last break. • Crowd-sourced DOT/inspection alerts along your route. • Save routes, dark/light/auto themes, and standard car or truck GPS for everyday driving — free and unlimited. FREE + PAID • Free: unlimited standard car navigation. • Permit routing: a subscription (Starter, Standard, Pro, or Fleet) or a one-time permit credit. IMPORTANT — ALWAYS FOLLOW YOUR OFFICIAL PERMIT PermitNav is a driver aid, not a substitute for your permit or professional judgment. Always follow the official permit and posted signage, and field-verify clearances before every move. SUBSCRIPTIONS PermitNav offers auto-renewing monthly subscriptions: Starter ($9.99/mo), Standard ($19.99/mo), Pro ($39.99/mo), Fleet ($99.99/mo), plus a one-time permit credit ($1.99). Payment is charged to your Apple ID at purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel in your Apple ID Account Settings. Prices are in USD and may vary by region. Terms of Use: https://pythn.app/permitroute/terms.html Privacy Policy: https://pythn.app/permitroute/privacy.html

About

RouteAll

RouteAll turns your oversize or overweight permit into a route you can drive. Upload the permit PDF your state issued. RouteAll reads the permit number, the dimensions, the weights, the validity dates and — the part that matters — the specific highways the permit requires you to stay on. Then it navigates that exact corridor, turn by turn, and warns you the moment you leave it. No transcribing a turn list into a consumer GPS that has never heard of your load. WHAT IT DOES • Reads state-issued oversize and overweight permits from a PDF or a photo • Extracts dimensions, weights, validity dates and the mandated road chain • Shows every field it read, with a confidence mark, so you approve before you drive • Turn-by-turn guidance along the permitted route • Spoken warning the moment you leave the permitted corridor • Works through dead zones — the route lives on your device • Says so plainly when GPS is lost, instead of showing a frozen position • Share a route with your pilot cars — viewing is free, forever BUILT FOR THE CAB Alerts are spoken in the language your phone is set to: English, Spanish, Punjabi, Russian, Ukrainian and Somali. A warning you cannot understand is a warning that did not happen. FREE TO TRY Three permit scans when you sign up, plus one every month. No card required. Escort and pilot-car drivers can view a shared route free, forever, with no subscription. IMPORTANT RouteAll does not issue permits and does not guarantee compliance. It reads the permit you already hold and helps you follow it. Always check the extracted details against the permit document itself before you drive.
