      Good day friends! I plan to subscribe to the Gold, as well as the MyRourte-App, but I have some questions and looking for recommendations. As the cruise diector, my research tells me that this App could be the perfect guidance vs Google Maps.

      Do you recommend I use the Gold level to make the routes, then once tested, send the routes out to my members, ensuring they have downlaoded the Nav App? Has anyone done this already? Does it worlk well?
      I have studied all of the videos and this seems to cover everything I need.

        You can share routes in an event or group, you don't have to send it to the members, the only thing members have to to is to create a basic account (free) and then they can download the routes from the event or even better when they also buy Navigation Next, the can start the route imidiatly.

        Make sure you create the routes in the Here-map

          @Svetteanna yes it is. In fact it's common practice in our club. Like Hans said we share the routes in an event for the members of the club. Have fun

            @Svetteanna We, at the Alfa Romeo Spider club, check if HERE routes are identical to the one using the TomTom map.

              @Alfaspider said in Corvette Club of Ontario (Canada):

              @Svetteanna We, at the Alfa Romeo Spider club, check if HERE routes are identical to the one using the TomTom map.

              Expanding that slightly:

              1. Check if HERE routes are identical to the one using the TomTom map (exactly as Alfaspider said), which is where (only) you need the Gold level of membership.
              2. Try and work out why HERE and TomTom routes have diverged (better routing, more up-to-date info, traffic, one-way system that only one router recognises, etc)
              3. Then place additional waypoints 'correcting'/refining the route until they do match*

              Publicise the route, and all your members - i.e. MRA app users, Garmin users and Tomtom users - will be happy. Ish.

              *Although I only use the MRA app, I quite often find the TomTom route has slightly 'better'/more sensible routing, so I tend to favour any divergence towards the TomTom route. The differences tend to be minimal if you use a reasonable number of waypoints in the initial route design.

              However, if you use say just 5 waypoints over a 200 mile cross-country route with a big network of road choices, then you can expect a lot more divergence.
