What is PlanARoute? Description of PlanARoute

PlanARoute is a great tool for creating or recording multi-stop driving, walking, cycling or point-to-point routes. More than directions from points A to B, PlanARoute gives you directions from points A to Z.

Use it to plan or record a tour or any other multi-stop journey.

Interested in knowing where you have been but do not want to waste battery power running your device’s GPS? Just take a photo at key points in your journey and PlanARoute will plot on a map those photos and generate a route with addresses, distances and directions from those photos.

Included are two example tour routes (New York and Central Park) which demonstrate the features of PlanARoute. No need to learn complex software. View and play with these example tours to learn how to use this app and use them as a model on how to create your own routes.

Features:

▪ Create walking, cycling or driving routes of up to 26 locations while connected to the internet.
▪ Create point-to-point routes with an unlimited number of locations even when your device is not connected to the internet.

PlanARoute Pros

Best Motorcycle route planning foundMy friend and I have been testing multiple route/trip planning tools over the last three months to include the SW that came w/ his new HD Road Glide Special. Everything has been woefully inadequate. Plan a Route has been the most amazing app that we have found. Fantastic for planning, works great on my iPhone in mount so I can see the turns. If I had Bluetooth speakers would be complete. Bottom Line if I could I would give this app 7 stars..HooahEngVersion: 6.1.3

Easy to use, good featuresMost route planning apps show your destinations with only a dropped pin which can get confusing if you have a high number of stops within your route. PlanARoute has the clever feature of displaying both the street name & number beside the dropped pin making it easy to reference your planned drops without the confusion. Highly recommended for multi-drop drivers..Teebee78Version: 6.8.4

PlanARoute Cons

Useful route plannerI dropped the rating from 4 stars to 1 star. It was frustrating enough that this app had no iCloud sync, despite having multiple device support. But I discovered all my saved routes had disappeared, and the developer told me the only solution was to to restore my entire device from a saved backup. Ridiculous. Automatic backups are a must for any app like this where one spends hours crafting a file. The tools and services to do so are available (iCloud, Dropbox, etc). The lack of inclusion of a backup feature is therefore a developer choice. Others should be aware of all of this before committing to a purchase, or investing their time in creating detailed routes. Original review: Great app to plan out a car or bicycle trip, since it has the option to use MapQuest maps for bike directions. The elevation slider is handy for the latter. Useful information right on the map and pins: saved location names, distances and total cumulative distance. Locations are saved with the saved map/route. Useful for exploring multiple trips. Pins can be added and excluded from the route, to be used as reference points. The lack of iCloud sync knocks off a star. Importing maps via email is less than ideal. I'd like to see Google Maps data be made available too. The icon and interface is a bit lacking, but the functionality is there, which is the ultimate factor. The developer is also responsive and open to feature requests..GcoghillVersion: 6.7.4

BadStarts out looking promising but if you get enough points in it starts to blow up and completely scrambles the point order continuously over and over and there seems no way to straighten it out. Just cost me money and time. This is a half backed app. But in fairness I have not any of these types of apps that actually work properly????.VdubyaVersion: 1.3
