    Hi!

    What about courses visible for other cyclist

    Garmin Connect:

    Private: Courses imported from plotaroute cannot be made public.

    Hi Mikhail - the Garmin API doesn't allow us to specify the privacy settings of any routes transferred, so they are all saved as Private courses on Garmin Connect.  If you want to make a Course Public, you would need to duplciate it on Garmin Connect (you can select this option from the menu near the Send to Device button when viewing the route on GC).

    I have noticed that even though I mark the route in plotaroute as a road route, when it ends on Garmin it is showing as off-road (and I cannot edit it in Garmin - I presume because it has been uploaded) is this a known issue?

    Hi Rupert - the current version of the Garmin API doesn't allow us to specify a terrain type when transferring routes as Garmin courses. If you want to edit a course on Garmin Connect, you would need to duplicate it first (you can select this option from the menu near the Send to Device button when viewing the route on GC).

    Hi. Whilst I've been cycling for sometime I've never used a route planner before.

    i would like to use a screen device on my bike to show/give directions and the map in real time.

    i use an iPhone but are there other devices I can sync to i.e Garmin, that I can use the routes I have planned.

    what devices would you recommend that are compatible.

    look forward to your advice

    The Garmin Edge range of devices are very popular Stephen you can automatically sync your routes from plotaroute.

    Just found this feature recently (great addition, thanks!)

     

    Is there any way to star a route from the routemaking page?  My general usage of Plotaroute means I plot a route, save, then download/sync.  Would be great to be able to tick a box in the Save menu where I can star the new route immediately rather than having to go to My Routes to star it.

     

    Can start a new thread in Feature Requests if this isn't possible -- or is it already possible and I'm just missing how to do it?

    You can only star a route from the My Routes page at present. We've added your suggestion for an option to star a route when saving it to our Feature Requests list where people can vote for it (number 110).

    Just found this. Haven't tried it just yet but it sounds brilliant. Obviously looking forward to something similar for Wahoo, but for now this sounds great!
