Cyclers: Bike Route Planner

I love the way it find routes through neighborhoods and behind business and cut throughs. I love that. However I’ve noticed that the voice directions stop and not until maybe an hour after I’m back home if the app is still technically open on my iPhone even though I’ve stopped and saved my ride the voice narration will just start speeding through the directions. Super annoying. Other than that I do like the app. Currently comparing it to Strava and I give Cyclers the edge due to the route options it gives me depending on how many miles I want to ride. Which it counted calories that would be nice.

I use this app to find new routes to places I want to go. Unfortunately, I can't depend on their navigation 100% of the time because it likes to suggest midblock crossings from one neighborhood to the next while crossing a figurative freeway. However, this app gets regular, impactful updates so I'm hopeful this will get better. Thanks for the app, guys!

Great app for both planning and logging your rides. Provides up to five alternate routes, in order of bike-friendliness, speed, and distance. One *really* great feature is the ability to preview (via color-coding) various road conditions - trail vs road, surface, traffic, and *grade*. Being able to preview how steep a route is is invaluable in a hilly city like Seattle. There are switches that also guide the route choices, including avoiding steep climbs. The logging works well also, and provides similar color coding for speed. Overall, this is my first choice for planning a bike route - if I had to choose only one app for my cycling needs, this would be it.
