User Testimonials:

"I do a lot of intra-Europe driving and always wondered whether an app such as this existed, and here it is. Absolutely superb, love it." - Malta vacationer, US

"Upon reading the reviews of the similar applications they all seemed to share the inability to plot custom routes. The trip I had specifically in mind when purchasing this app was my 7 hour drive to and from the upper peninsula of Michigan during breaks from university. The route I take isn't the normally suggested route so an app like those mentioned above would have left out around 120 miles of my trip. This app lets you fully customize your route and was incredibly easy to use for me! Just tap and hold the cities you'll be passing through and give it a departure time and you're all set." - Angela Cole, US

"This is a great little app ideal for the sort of trip I'm taking this week along a US interstate highway that runs through varying elevations. ... I'm a weather app junkie and I've probably used 10-15 over time. This is the only one that reliably does this sort of thing, at least for the US." - A_B, US

"I own a motorbike and I've been looking for an app like this to plan my rides. This app does what it promises and is easy to use." - Sunshine Rider, US

"This is what I was looking for! Thanks a lot Fantastica, è proprio quello che stavo cercando, grazie." - Alfiere, Italy

"Hace lo que dice, Muy bien hecha." - Alaraq, Spain

Screenshots

These screenshot with mark-up roughly show the workflow of the app.

The weather along the route can also be viewed as a graph by tilting the phone sideways.

The iPad version of course makes use of the larger screen.
