There is some decent content, but the app is unusually difficult to navigate. And what ia the thing with the “shortcut”? I don’t consider it a shortcut if I have to lookup a shortcut code each time I open the app. And while a QR code is displayed as an alternative shortcut, it is static—you can’t click on it, and you can’t scan it with your camera. I would have expected better from a top notch company.
I love backroads travel but this app is really not great. I can’t find it in the App Store, I occasionally freezes into a white space and has to be closed and reopened, and the on the ground trip leaders have no ability to update it with changes. It is hard to open as the user is sent to Ride with GPS with no explanation and there is no way to have more than one trip open simultaneously so if one loss a new one, one has to go back through the entire routine to get the other one! Also we he links only come in email with a NUMBER of the reservation, not the location of the trip which is super confusing. And finally, the actual dates of “day 1, day 2 “ etc aren’t displayed which is just ridiculous.
Just started our trip. While the app has a toggle in settings for metric on or off. It does nothing. Only displays metric.
I am using the app to review my trip I finished two weeks ago. I am thrilled to be able to do this now that I have a bit of time. Seeing the route maps after having completed the rides is great. I can visualize and remember each day! I just hope I won’t be denied access any time soon so I can continue to reminisce, and share how great Backroads was with my friends who might be interested in coming next ime!
Just at the start, the Waldorf Astoria is no more. It is now the Caledonian. It may have confused a few folk, including me. Just a thought.
Not very useful. They send the routes right before the trip. If you plan to go to your destination early you may miss some recommendations for trip packing.
Useful way to capture route info, cultural information (do miss the paper sheets a little bit), information about restaurants, spa treatments and local language phrases. Kinda wish there was also an app for trip selection/cataloging but this app does it’s job very well.
Nothing more than an outdated RidewithGPS with a Backroads label slapped on the screen. Five stars.
Works really well for trips. So happy that Backroads has gone paperless
