Description:PlanARoute is a great tool for creating walking, cycling or driving routes. More than directions from points A to B, PlanARoute gives you directions from points A to Z. Routes of up to 26 locations can be created in seconds.If you are a hiker, cyclist, tourist or a person with a list of customers to visit, use PlanARoute to plan a route that will take you to all the locations on your journey. Add a location by simply tapping on the map, by entering an address in the search area, by selecting an address from your contacts address book or by selecting a location from your favorites library. If you are out on your journey and discover an interesting location add it to your route by simply tapping on the "Drop Pin at Current Location" button (this feature requires an internet connection). When you reach an interesting location, use your device to take a photo and attach it to that location. Record your impressions of that location by writing in the notepad area.
