      @albin-ahlvin I don’t habe a BWW Navigator but I have added a screenshot from the possibilities when you planning at the TomTom map.

        BMW Navigator uses the Here (Garmin) map so my advice would be use the Here map to plan your route on and if you prefer the TomTom map, use the TomTom overlay.
        If on the other hand you want to use the tools from the TomTom toolkit like windy roads you’ll need to use the TomTom map to plan on but you could also turn on the ‘compare with Here’ tool and place enough route points so that both the black line representing the TomTom route and Green line representing the Here route follow the same course.

        You can save any .gpx route to export to your device.

        Always willing to help if I can.
