inRoute - Intelligent Routing

I tried a few road trip apps, but there’s a reason this one has won awards 🏆, and again 🏆. It’s very user friendly, works with Apple or Google Maps, & CarPlay, so there’s no gaffing about in the car, or trying to understand a new SatNav system. I bought this to plan the North Coast 500, but ended up planning another 5 trips, including a European tour, which I can honestly say that we would never have thought of doing, without the app. It’s easier planning on the iPad, but you don’t miss any features on the iPhone. The sharing version is worth the extra couple of ££ too, then when you are not travelling, or planning, just cancel your subscription, and everything is saved on iCloud, for when you are ready for your next road trip. Definitely worth ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ UPDATE: I have used this on three trips now, & the AI for rerouting, finding extra locations, or missing stops, is very easy and reliable. Our new favourite app!

Great for planning a route by adding waypoints that don’t constantly get changed and you don’t have to stop to take your gloves off and accept the next stage like Google maps does to you!

This app is the dog’s danglies for planning. The free version gives you 8 waypoints to try out, which was very easy to use, and everywhere I searched was found. The paid version has been a God Send at planning our ‘Scottish West Coast 500’, and ‘Highland Fling’, which has already taken us hours of planning for a YouTube adventure. This is a must have app for car clubs, driving holidays, caravan holidays, and off the cuff adventures. Once you’ve done your planning, save your routes, and cancel your subscription, but you will need to re subscribe when you travel. The navigation has lots of voice options, which are all… funny, but completely useless, especially when you are somewhere you don’t know, and just need clear instructions. However, the Apple CarPlay integration really helps. To be honest, if this was £2.99p/m, I would keep the subscription going, as I’m sure many would, since we always have road trip ideas, but we will keep listing these in a notes app for now. If I could give this 4.65 Stars, I would. I appreciate that developers are entitled to be paid for their hard work, but I think being cheaper, would have more long term subscribers, and I can’t justify the price, so I’m disappointed that it has to be 4 Stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I really look forward to future updates, and will definitely be promoting this to the car club community.

5* If the app always displayed your road name at the bottom of the screen during navigation.

When choosing “avoid highways” in the settings, the app won’t. In fact, even if you place waypoints on an alternative route (for example to use the A38 over the M5) the app will route you off the motorway to hit the waypoint on the A38 and then put you back on the M5 again at the next junction. This is a great app, but where a route I want to use runs close to a motorway, I have given up trying to force this and have to use another app. It’s a shame because I prefer the other features of this app. I feel it’s got a bit too complicated in the last few revisions and I feel like I’m fighting with it more and more.

Sometimes the voice navigation doesn’t work . Otherwise very good

The app overall is good but for now I prefer to use other option. The app it’s constantly going on standby mode, when you’re driving it’s a bit annoying. Can’t select the gps app you want to use. Can’t select one pin in middle route and activate the gps. Can’t mark and optimize drops by time. Sometimes the optimisation it’s a bit odd, doesn’t make sense… to find addresses it’s excellent, it takes you to the exact address, can even find house names. Unfortunately to work it’s not good enough.

I’m a multi drop courier & use this app daily for work. The ability to label each pin, change colours or even add notes is invaluable. The fact that it uses Apple Maps is also great, given how good that is with private house and farm names. I will say, however, Apple Maps last update did change one particular street on my route from the street name to its A road name, which is why I’ve marked this down a star (not really the developer’s fault). I’ve had 2 occasions to contact support & on both times their responses have been excellent, detailed & fast. I would highly recommend this app to any courier who needs a reliable route planner.

Plan multiple stops with ease. Saved me loads of time. Five star. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I’ve used this app for 2 months now and have found it quick and simple finding those hidden houses much easier and knowing ware you are in relationship to the house so easy, I have been a self employed driver for over 20 years and have used a lot of sat nav’s in that time and none have helped as much as this app. It takes a lot of the stress out of your daily work.
