    I use myrouteapp.com for creating storing and managing road trip routes. I have a lifetime subscription so I'd really like to keep using it. I have the MRA app on my android mobile, which allows me to access my stored maps.

    I use Google maps on my bike. I used to use tomtom, but I've recently switched. I like to use waypoints, so on tomtom I exported itn files rather than gpx. Worked perfectly, and I could do this on the road using a sdcard.
    So MRA > TomTom could be done in a few minutes.

    I'm seeking a similar workflow MRA > Google Maps. Which to my mind if all on the same mobile, should be super easy. But I can't find an option - hence my suggestion, can there be an export direct to google maps.

    I have tried the optional turn-by-turn navigation from MRA, but it's not for me. Will try again in the future. But even if that's good for me, I like to have multiple options.

      unfortunately I do not think MRA > Google maps is going to work for you
      I used a similar workflow to you when I had a TomTom 410, it worked very well

      Google navigation is pretty much an start position A > destination B navigation system
      you can add in the odd Via point in Google maps but the system does not accept import of GPX/KML files that can be navigated

      I totaly agree with having a second back navigation option, I use MRA navigation as my main app & Osmand as the backup
      Osmand is clunky but it does function reasonably well

      No Wifi, no internet, no interruptions, works well

        @BFG, What do you dislike about the MRA Route Navigation, and what do you like better on gMaps for a feature that it does not even have (scenic routing, navigating many route points)? Given the many features asked for in this forum, I do not understand what anyone could prefer on gMaps to be honest (besides A2B navigation that is).

        I am just an enthusiastic MRA user, and hope you will be one too!

          The last time I tried the app, its instructions were completely wrong. I had it running in parallel with TomTom, and was testing it on a very well known route. No milestone / waypoints, just a single destination set. NN make 10 mistakes in the first 30 miles, telling me to take the wrong road each time. Many times I could see it wanted to take me into a car park, turn around and come out again. Stopped and double-checked destination and settings. Set it going also in parallel on my partner's phone. Set off again and it failed almost immediately. It felt like it was a pre-Alpha release. OK, I could keep it running in parallel, but then it was doing very strange things with the display which became a distraction.

          This was Mar last year. https://forum.myrouteapp.com/topic/8980/first-time-navigation-next-on-android-auto-strange-display-rotation

          I didn't try it again. If another free trial was offered I'd have given it another go after a few months.
          Maybe I should try again.

            If you’ve that many faults it must have something to do with your navigationsettings

              @BFG, Who is to say your TomTom didn't get it right all that time instead... 🤣
              I don't recognize anything you say...

                    It does! they come in as pins. Thank you. This is a step closer. There are android apps that allow navigation from My Map pins.

                          i use comaps when i use osm maps and that app uses kml or kmz. with import it is not always the same. so maybe export kmz will give better result.

                            I have a workflow. AI tools will do this easily. Tested with both chatgpt and claude.

                            A prompt such as the following works perfectly, and loads to google maps navigation (not to google my maps), so turn-by-turn is working. It does this by creating a single URL containing lat-long co-ordinates. I've only tested with .itn but it will work with gpx etc.

                            The prompt I used is:

                            Please prepare a google maps navigation route, using latitude and longitude, and provide me with a re-usable link to the navigation, using the attached .itn file as a source

                            Also, prompted by this thread, I've decided to give NN another go and purchased a subscription.

                              i do not use AI... the fun is half to play arround with routes and then try to find solution for navigation. it can be use off a lot of shaping points or use OSM but then use a OSM navigation app. sometimes i just use a track and then also NN but with some tracks it is better to use other app. i never use google maps for planned routes. for planned routes i use NN, Comaps(track), osmand (osm) and komoot for walking or bike. i am now also looking at bmaps, android app working alone with tracks and osm maps. As long as Here maps are supports the roads i use NN. If road support is better in OSM then i plan in OSM and export track to what ever i like to use.
