Road trip

Offline navigation for the Canadian road trip

Download a province once over Wi-Fi. Then drive Highway 11 to Cochrane, or 17 along the north shore, or the concession roads to the cottage — and keep a working map, a working search box and a voice telling you where to turn, the whole way.

Why this exists

Three things that go wrong on a Canadian drive

Coverage ends about an hour north of the city.
The province is already on the phone before you leave the driveway — the roads, the names and the routing graph. Losing signal changes nothing about what the app can do.
The route sends you onto a toll road, a ferry or ten kilometres of gravel.
Tolls, ferries and unpaved roads are flags on the road network itself, and each one has a switch. Turn it off and the route is planned around it, offline, like any other rule.
You need fuel, a washroom or a hospital and the search box is spinning.
Nearby search reads the places out of the region file on the device, so asking what is around you works in the same places the map does — which is everywhere.

Driving

What you get in the car

All of it runs on the phone. The network is used once, to fetch the region.

  • Voice turn-by-turn

    Spoken prompts with the street name and the roundabout exit — “In 300 metres, turn left onto Bay Street”, “At the roundabout, take the second exit”.

  • Rerouting when you miss it

    The app notices you have left the route and plans a new one on the device. No bars required, and no waiting for a server to answer.

  • Avoid tolls, ferries and gravel

    Three switches on the route, honoured by the router itself rather than filtered afterwards.

  • Legal turns and one-ways

    Turn restrictions, one-ways and per-vehicle access are baked into the map when it is built, so the voice does not confidently ask for an illegal left.

  • A province per download

    One file, a few hundred megabytes to about two gigabytes, holding the map, the place names and the routing graph.

  • Favourites and GPX

    Save the campsite, the trailhead, the friend’s driveway that has no address. Export the lot as GPX, or import a file somebody sent you and keep its waypoints.

  • CarPlay and Android Auto Planned

    Not available yet. CarPlay navigation needs an entitlement Apple grants by application, so it is planned rather than promised.

  • One trip across two provinces Planned

    A region is one province today, and a route stays inside it. Driving Toronto to Montréal on one route is planned work, not shipped work.

  • Search by street address Planned

    Search finds places, roads, lakes and businesses by name today. House numbers are the next piece of work on the search index.
