Opening the RouteYou app takes you to a home page where you will be greeted with your username. This page displays some useful shortcuts.
You can easily return to the default homepage at any time via the "Home" button.
Use these buttons to enter choices.
- "Search for a route" opens the search page . This will help you put together a choice of suitable routes in just 3 steps.
- "Plan a route" takes you to the planning option where you can plot your own route on the map.
- "Nodes" opens the explore option with the map zoomed in on your location and showing only the range of node routes in your area. Provided these are available at that location.
Here you will see a scrolling carousel of information cards for top routes under different activity types close to you. The “See all routes” button at the end of the scrolling carousel takes you to the Explore option zoomed in on your location.
From this horizontal bar you can choose whether you want to see walking, cycling or bridle path node routes.
If a particular type is not available (such as bridle path node route), no routes will be displayed.
You can also display the nodes on the map by enabling the 'Hiking nodes' map details option.
PLEASE NOTE
The map zooms to your current position or remembers the map position from your last search. You can easily enter a new destination via location.
Here you will find collections of routes you have saved, created, viewed or downloaded for viewing offline.
Saved routes: you will see routes you have saved here.
My routes: you will see routes you have created yourself here.
Last viewed: you will see the routes you last viewed via the website or in the app here. This is linked to your account, so is synchronised regardless of which device or system you use RouteYou on.
(Downloaded routes): the downloaded routes carousel is only displayed if you have downloaded routes to the app for viewing offline
PLEASE NOTE:
These route lists can also be viewed at any time via your RouteYou app profile page.
