Roadmap & Milestones

  1. Complete Prototype & Field Testing

    Core mapping engine, waypoint capture, voice notes, 10+ export formats, roadbook generation, and cloud sync — built and tuned on active outback recon.

  2. Complete Beta Program

    Invite-only beta across multiple rally recon teams, refining hands-free voice mapping, sync reliability, and roadbook accuracy based on real road-test feedback.

  3. Complete · May 2026 Public Launch

    RouteMapper went live at app.routemapper.net with a Free tier and four paid tiers. Stripe billing wired end-to-end with Australian GST handled automatically.

  4. Now Roadbook Accuracy Pass

    Manual waypoint angles computed from the GPS track, direction-aware sign correction, and snap-to-nearby-turn fallback for shallow calls — generated roadbooks now correlate cleanly with Rally Navigator imports.

  5. Coming next Snap-First Waypoint Capture

    At highway speed every second of GPS lag matters. The next release flips the waypoint flow: tap once to lock the position, then refine icon and notes during a brief edit window — eliminating up to 125 m of positional drift on fast stages.

  6. Later Expansion

    Stage history browser, additional icon packs, team collaboration tools, Android tablet support, and strategic partnerships.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it work offline?

Yes, completely. All data is stored locally on your device and syncs automatically when a connection returns. Guest Mode requires no login and works entirely offline.

What export formats are supported?

RouteMapper produces 10+ formats in a single ZIP: Rally Navigator CSV (raw and driver modes), Garmin GPX, OpenRally-compatible GPX, Universal GPX, Combined GPX, Google Earth KML, Hema Maps, Guru Maps, Gaia GPS, Roadbook HTML with tulip diagrams, and a complete Master JSON. All from one tap.

What devices does it work on?

RouteMapper runs in any modern browser — no app to install. It's optimised for iPad (Safari, iPadOS 14+) in both landscape and portrait orientations, and works on iPhone, Mac, and PC too. Add it to your iPad's Home Screen for a full-screen, app-like experience.

Is there a free trial?

Yes — there's a permanent Free tier (1 saved stage, 20 waypoints) plus a Guest Mode that needs no sign-up at all. Both let you try the full waypoint and roadbook workflow before deciding whether to upgrade. See the Pricing section for the paid tiers.

Can I use this for hiking or mountain biking?

Absolutely. While designed for rally navigation, RouteMapper works for any route-planning activity — hiking, mountain biking, overlanding, expedition planning, scout camps. The export formats (KML, GPX, Hema, Gaia) are widely supported by other tools in those communities.

What about Android tablets?

Android tablet support is on the roadmap, prioritised by user demand. The web app already runs in Chrome on Android — feature parity is the goal — but we haven't yet tuned the glove-friendly controls for the Android tablet form factor.

How does cancellation work?

Cancel any time from the Manage Billing link in the app. Cancelling at end of period keeps your access until the next billing date; cancelling immediately reverts you to Free straight away. Either way, no questions asked.
