Austin David Posted Wednesday at 08:00 PM Posted Wednesday at 08:00 PM I was gonna ask about a "better" app for planning rides, but it got away from me and I just made something. Vibecoded, anyway. The app itself is just planning; actual turn-by-turn routing is Maps or Beeline (or anything that can use GPX export). Who wants to help me test and share feedback? The concept is a fairly straightforward maps (Google maps) experience to add a series of waypoints to build a long route. Once the route is set up, it can be shared, edited, or navigated. Smaller routes (<10 waypoints) can go straight into Google Maps. Each leg from here -> Waypoint can be navigated (click -> send to maps). The whole route can be exported, then imported into Beeline or anything that reads GPX. For Beeline it's a few clicks to create a new ride from the export. Mobile experience is the same, works surprisingly well on a handset. The sample route below should be viewable here: https://route7-prod.web.app/route/Bj6Gm4GZKw3U Message me a gmail address and I can whitelist for editing. 1
