Use of same vehicle route tool in the Mobile App
In the desktop/web version you can create routes between waypoints using roads. Rather than the straight line distance it will show you the route you need to take using roads. There have been many times that I would have loved to have this on my phone. You cannot create such custom routes using Google Maps, which is why I turn to TNP. If I want to drive to 5 different waypoints stretched over many miles of roads, I can use that route tool and it will plot the routes I need using roads. This tool is EXCELLENT! And it would be even better to have available on the mobile app. Also, if you want to make it even better, use different color routes for 1) untraveled and 2) traveled. The way it is now they stay blue and if you have many routes in a small area it is difficult to know which ones you have traveled and have not.

An addition I forgot about.. Something else that would make this even better would be a very simple navigational bar that tells you distance to next turn and which way to turn. The names of roads would be nice too. However I think with this route creation tool on my phone that shows distance to next turn, which way to turn, and which parts of the route I have and have not traveled, I would absolutely love it! Especially if all of that still worked with no data!
