@LE-DIZES-Freddy It’s very simple: all the information is available here: https://beta.myrouteapp.com
@CD130 Sorry CD, didn't see you'd already replied!

@LE-DIZES-Freddy Hi Freddy, the top of the Beta webpage says:
"Beta Access goes on sale on 26 October 2026, and the beta opens on 2 November 2026 for everyone who has it."
So unless you have some special arrangement, we all have to wait until the 26th, choose our option:
https://beta.myrouteapp.com/#tiers
And then wait until 2nd November for access.
Cheers, Tom
@Tom-Grzelinski ok i wait like you Thanks

Hi everyone, dear MRA developer team,
reply from a potential new user/lifetime member.
I tested MRA in my Honda with Android Auto a few days ago and actually intended to sign up for a Lifetime Gold and App Next subscription today.
After battling my way through the slightly confusing basic/silver/gold/appnext comparison page, I was ready to purchase the lifetime subscription. While looking for it, I stumbled upon this post.
To be completely honest, I am thoroughly put off and confused, and I’ve put my decision to buy on hold for now.
When I purchase a lifetime license, I expect to receive a lifetime subscription.
I own several such subscriptions for both professional and personal use, and I appreciate being able to test new features and gain early access as a beta user.
From what I’m reading here, however, that doesn't seem to be the case with MRA. Furthermore, I have to assume—based on what’s written here—that there could always be new versions or features that are no longer included in the lifetime sub.
In my view, that is very disappointing and defeats the whole purpose of a lifelong commitment to a piece of software or a company. Besides that, the communication what's in and what's not, what will be in and not is totally confusing.
It’s a real shame and is deterring me from buying—especially since I was very pleasantly surprised after the trial.

@Tim-57-0 After Corjan’s input, I was genuinely convinced that there were no loose ends left. That’s why I’m surprised that people keep thinking they’re going to lose functionality once the new web planner launches!
NO, YOU WON’T!!
Everything included in the Lifetime package will also be available when the new web planner launches. How many times does this still need to be explained?

I suspect the main concern is that customers who purchased the Gold Lifetime package believed they were entitled to all future updates and additional functionality for the lifetime of the product.
If that is the case, how were those expectations managed at the point of sale? Was it made clear that "Lifetime" referred only to the functionality available at the time of purchase, and that future premium features could be excluded? If so, then any misunderstanding may simply stem from customers interpreting the offer differently.
My view is that the business has recognised that the Lifetime model will eventually reach a saturation point, where revenue from new Lifetime purchases begins to decline. At that stage, relying solely on Lifetime sales is unlikely to generate sufficient income to support ongoing development, maintenance, and future innovation.
I completely understand why the business has chosen to introduce a new commercial model. However, I can also appreciate why customers who previously purchased Lifetime access may feel differently, particularly if they believed their purchase included access to all future functionalities. Ultimately, much depends on how those expectations were originally set and communicated. -

This isn't about losing functionality in terms of the features currently available. That's certainly the bare minimum one can expect from a lifetime license.
The issue is that the term “lifetime license” is being redefined. If you look at the FAQ and combine the terms “Gold,” “Lifetime,” and “Unlimited,” you inevitably conclude this means unlimited access to all current and future features, like a lifetime subscription to the highest available tier (”Gold”, in this case). That’s not unusual at all.
With the new model, however, the only clear thing is what new features you won’t get with the upcoming update without paying extra.
What the lifetime license will include in the future, on the other hand, is completely unclear. Will it include everything that’s also included in a Gold subscription? Or just a part of it? Or at least bug fixes for existing features? Some features you’ll get, some only with an additional fee. And some maybe not at all?
Sorry, but it’s simply not true that “everything is clear”, even with all these explanations.

@martin-phogel.de If that’s how you see it, then all I can advise you to do is simply wait until the new website is released to all users!

@martin-phogel.de So as to balance your argument I feel I need to correct your statement. Nowhere in the FAQs does it state that future features would be included, this is just your conclusion. You also failed to include all of the sentence when you mentioned the word unlimited, so here it is: Lifetime: "Pay once to get unlimited access to the purchased product. The important part of this sentence is purchased product. The product that you have purchased is Lifetime Gold and when the new website is launched you will still have unlimited access to the Gold features for your lifetime without having to pay anything extra.
Always willing to help if I can.

Sorry, @Nick-Carthew , I don't agree with that.
According to the FAQ, there are three subscription models: monthly, annual, and lifetime.
If I sign up for an annual “Gold” subscription, I expect to have access to all the features that are implemented during that year—not just the features that were available at the start of my subscription. Do you agree?
And if I sign up for a lifetime subscription, to me that’s like my annual subscription renewing itself over and over again. And “product” simply refers to the distinction between “Planner” and “Navigation (Next).”
That’s how I understand it, that's how I know it from all other “lifetime license” arrangements.

@martin-phogel.de, Where does the term "during a year" come from? Your theory would imply a Gold subscription could mean different feature inclusions for people based on how long ago they purchased their subscription. I guess many more people would get mad when they did that!
Like said so many times, Gold stays Gold with all previous features and more...
There are MANY new features that are included in the gold subscription for free.
There are also a few new additions to the program that are beyond the regular workflow, that cost a bit extra and can be seen as an in-app purchase, and that will not limit the use of your regular subscription in any way. -

during that year
"during a year"
The misunderstanding is probably because I’m not a native English speaker and didn’t express myself clearly.
Let me try again: If I sign up for an annual Gold subscription today, I expect access not only to the current features but also to all features implemented by October 8, 2027.
Based on that, I expect that with a subscription with no time limit, I’ll have access to all features—both those available at the time of my subscription and all future ones.
Does that make more sense?
