Paving percentages now available for routes outside Europe

RouteYou is growing bigger by the day thanks to loyal RouteYou users.
We are incredibly grateful for your support. ❤️🙏
 

🔔 We have important news for you today. 🔔

We will soon be changing the features in the free version of RouteYou.
It will now only be possible to use a route for navigation, print or download the GPX with a Plus subscription. 

➡️ There will be no significant changes for Plus users. Plus users can still access all the familiar features — and will get even better value for their money. In other words, RouteYou Plus now offers even more benefits. 

➡️ Free users can still search and view all routes free of charge. Using routes for navigation, printing or downloading the GPX will now only be possible for routes offered by professional accounts or routes shared by Plus users throughPower Share.
 

Why the change?

Since we started in 2006, we have been trying to keep RouteYou partly free through revenue from ads. But, since 2021, that revenue has become half of what it was, while user numbers have grown tenfold. On top of that, stricter privacy regulations make it increasingly difficult to show ads while guaranteeing your privacy.

⚖️ To continue to offer the best of RouteYou in the future, we need to strike a healthy balance between the costs of free usage and revenue from ads.

💡 It's like using a library: you can search and browse through everything, but you need to be a member to borrow books. RouteYou Plus is that membership.

So, make the switch, lend us a helping hand by becoming a Plus subscriber and enjoy all the advantages .

Upgrade now

The new route finder introduces some key improvements that will significantly enhance your experience. Here are the three biggest changes you need to know about:

1/ Retention of search results

Your search results now stay even if you move the map or zoom in and out. This means you don't have to search again every time you adjust the map. Only when you click the 'Search in this area' button will a new set of search results be generated.

2/ Interactive route info cards

When you hover over a route info card in the list or click a route icon on the map, the map automatically zooms to that route. The route is highlighted, and a route info card appears on the map. This makes it easier to view and select specific routes.

3/ Visualization of the best matches

The top five matches with your filter and sort options are now visualized on the map with a colored route line. This helps you quickly identify and compare the most relevant routes.

With these improvements, finding routes becomes more efficient and user-friendly. Try the new route finder today and see how these changes can improve your route planning!
