Thank you for your great feedback! With this update, we have further refined the route creation section. As part of this, the display of the results has been expanded. This includes the elevation profile and the scenic points included in the route. We have also improved the quality of the AI-supported descriptions and titles, and routes can now be driven immediately after creation without having to be saved. In the waypoint configuration, you can now specify for each point whether you want to drive directly to it or around it. The GPX import is now more reliable, and route generation has also been optimized, particularly with regard to the surface quality of the roads. As always, we welcome your feedback.

We are pleased to present the new ROADS update. With this new version, we have completely revised the area for creating a route. It is now much tidier, more structured and a suitable route is displayed more quickly. In this context, there is also the new “Side-Trip” feature. This allows you to extend the time between two waypoints by up to 100%. This is helpful, for example, if you need more time flexibility when planning a tour. Many of you have requested this function recently. We hope you like it. To use “Side-Trip”, please simply click on the respective waypoints and define the desired time. Many thanks also for the feedback on navigation. This version also includes an update for this. It improves navigation, reduces the risk of crashes and optimizes route creation. From now on, “gravel” roads will be explicitly reduced. As always, we look forward to your feedback. To contact the ROADS team directly, please use the “Feedback” button in the app settings.

This update brings you a small service update that improves performance for the following new functions: 1. Tours With Tours, you can now combine several routes as stages into one Tour and share them with other users. Creating a Tour is quick and intuitive: simply create a new Tour and add existing routes or generate new routes directly in the process. Each stage can be enriched with notes. The stages can be navigated individually. The new route assistant takes you either to the starting point of the stage or to the nearest entry point. 2. Power Search From now on, you will also find a prominent button at the top of the dashboard. This will take you to the new Power Search. In the Power Search, you can search and find all content on ROADS in a single place. And thanks to the multi-layered filter options, the search results can be further refined to suit your personal taste. 3. Communities We have noticed that many of you use the groups section to create and manage communities. We think this is great and have therefore renamed the area. From now on you can create your own community on ROADS and invite your friends to join. The extensive privacy options will of course remain the same. Just like the option to share created routes and tours for your own community. For a better overview, there is now a new button in each community that displays all unlocked driving content as a list. We welcome feedback on the new functions. Please send us your opinion via the feedback form in the app settings. The ROADS team wishes you a safe journey.

Thank you for all the positive feedback on the new PHOENIX navigation. We have already processed the first suggestions for improvement and are making them available with this update. As we have received various questions about CarPlay, please note once again: CarPlay is currently deactivated for technical reasons. However, it will be available again soon. Please follow the regular app updates in this regard.

We have recently received a lot of constructive feedback on the navigation behavior in the app. Many thanks for this. In particular, a lack of flexibility was noted, which in some cases led to undesirable behavior while driving. As we take your feedback very seriously, we have been working on a special project behind closed doors over the last few months. The aim of this project was to redesign the navigation in ROADS from the ground up in order to create a flexible and reliable driving experience. With this absolutely mandatory update, we are making this navigation, which we have named PHOENIX, available for you to test for the first time. PHOENIX reliably solves all previous issues and brings a lot of fun while driving. We would like to invite you to try out the new navigation system and give us your feedback. As we continue to work diligently on it in the coming weeks (including support for CarPlay), your feedback will help us move in the right direction. Have fun with PHOENIX!

"With this update, we have revised the entire route planning process. Thanks to thousands of POIs, it is now even easier to configure a tour. Each route now contains three driving options (Curvy, Fast, Balanced) from which you can choose. And for a quicker start to navigation, it can now be started directly from the planning stage without any detours. If you want to share a route with your friends on WhatsApp, Instagram and the like, you can now create a personalized graphic thanks to the new assistant. Give it a try if you like. In response to many requests, we have provided simple video instructions for the most important actions in ROADS in the FAQ section. Many thanks for all the feedback on the last version. We have fine-tuned the route import so that the imported route is as close as possible to the ""original"". There are also various improvements and performance enhancements."

This version includes various minor bugfixes.

We have once again sharpened the Google Maps import so that the result is closer to the original route. Please note that when importing a Google Maps route, we import the waypoints and connect them using the ROADS algorithm. If you have any questions or comments, you can send us an email via the "Feedback" button in the app settings.

By popular request, this update gives you the option of importing routes from Google Maps directly into ROADS. Simply click on ""Import"" when creating the route and copy the link to Google Maps. Give it a try! POIs can now be filtered in the ""Inspiration"" section. This provides a better overview of regions where there are particularly many interesting places to discover. In recent weeks, we have received various feedback on the topic of navigation, particularly with regard to the occasional re-routing. Our current navigation partner Mapbox has provided us with a solution, which is also part of this update. We hope that this will improve the situation noticeably and permanently. In addition, the version contains various bugfixes and the option to deactivate the automated anonymization of license plates in the settings. This can be helpful if text has been unintentionally made unrecognizable when uploading an image. If you have any questions or comments, you are welcome to send us an email via the ""Feedback"" button in the app settings.

Thank you very much for your feedback. With this last update in 2023, you can now upload multiple images in groups within a post at the same time.
