Description

Google Maps Import

With the ROADS route planner, you can find the most beautiful route for your next ride. Create a winding and scenic route between two or more locations with just a few clicks. ROADS is provided by Porsche and is available free of charge to anyone who loves driving.

Unlike conventional navigation solutions, ROADS focuses on discovering particularly attractive routes. Our unique route intelligence takes into account speed, curves and elevation as well as the real local road and environmental conditions. It also adapts to your individual driving preferences. This works both on in front your own doorstep and almost anywhere in the world.

With the integrated GPS navigation from Mapbox, the route can be driven directly with ROADS. And thanks to Apple CarPlay, it can be used in the onboard system of your compatible vehicle at any time.

Love the idea but it still needs some work

I like the routes it gives me but I save them and I dont know where to find them. I am still searching the app for the section where I can find my saved routes. Maybe instead of having the public popular routes at the bottom it should be your created routes

Thanks for your review. All your routes can be found in your profile.

Close, but not quite there…

I would like to continue using the app, as it did set up a decent route, but I wish it would allow deviations from the designed route. We were having a great drive, and found a fun looking road so decided to take a turn the app had not created. Once we deviated, the app wanted us to turn back and continue from the last point where we had deviated the app has created. That created a frustrating moment, and environment, so we ended up turning off the app. Earlier on that same drive, we stopped for gas, and exited the parking lot at a different exit that we entered, so the app would not continue with the route until we turned back and exited from the entrance we entered the gas station. Not a fun moment. I removed the app from my phone, as every time I considered using it, I realized I wanted to be able to stop to see the sights along the way, and the app would ultimately just be a distraction from the fun because of the issues. Sorry

So very disappointing

I finally found a free Saturday and called up the Roads app to find a fun drive up to Bear Mountain State Park. Waze called for a 55 min drive, so I was encouraged when Roads predicted a 90 min journey. Northern NJ has some amazing, spirited roads so I eagerly set out to follow the route.

However, right away, I noticed odd guidance through 25 mph zones. The app directed me through a parking lot, then returned me to continue on my current road, so I ignored its detour through the lot and continued on, yet the app repeatedly urged me to turn around and go back through the lot. I stopped and restarted the route to get back on track, but again, all I saw was slow drives through light after light.

After 90 minutes of barely exceeding 40 mph at the top speed, I frustratedly deleted the app and used Waze. 15 min later, I reached my destination and used Waze to return home on the Pallisades Pkwy, a terrific road with speed and scenery that I sought from the beginning. Porsche has a LOT of work to do to get me to try this again.
