Written Directions- THANK YOU GUIDO!

I discovered that you can now print written directions when you share a Scenic route!

I cannot thank you enough for this Guido! It is extremely helpful for me. I am sure many others will appreciate it.

How does one go about doing this?  I don't see any that any sharing options have changed...

  • Select route from you route list
  • Tap 3-dots button top right > share link
  • Open link in browser
  • On the page that opens there is a “written directions” button.
If you're enjoying Scenic and are happy with the support, please leave a nice rating in the App Store. It would mean a lot to me ❤️

Ah, I see, thanks!  So it's not a special step that the "sharer" has to take... all shared links include the option.

Only... have a care: I tried it on a long route I made, and towards the end of the route, the written directions don't match the track on the map... the written directions lead one in circles down different roads, chasing, apparently, via points...

Excellent!

Excellent!

Is it, if the written directions don't match the route?

I Think this may be related to the issue with larger routes. I have learned that if I try to use a route that is more than @150-200 miles, I get all kinds of glitches in the route. The loops, turn around instructions, wrong turns, etc. This might be driven by the same underlying structure.

For the routes I have used it with, so far six or so and all under 100 miles, it has been perfect.

Of course, YMMV.

Could be!  But my routes don't seem to exhibit those problems.  My example shows a straightforward, sensible map route, and it worked flawlessly when I actually rode it - but that was quite a while ago, maybe the issues you describe are recent problems?
