Send partial route to Google maps, which then can be sent to car

[Cube Mammal]

Hi,

  Love this app and really appreciate the support. I use it for long trip planning, like cross country. Google maps has a limitation of 10 or so waypoints, so is not possible to use for a long multi day trip. But if you have Google Maps built into your vehicle (Android Auto), then when logged in, a route on your phone shows a ‘Send to car” button, so you can upload to your vehicle. But RTP wants to send the whole route, not just a leg (e.g. that day) so Google Maps chops it off

Here’s the use case I’m thinking off

• Plan a (long multi day/week) trip in RTP
• Go into the detail settings for a pin - there is a “Send to” button on the top bar
• Tap that - there is a new option there “Send partial route to Google Maps”
  • It pops a dialog asking for how many way points (from this pin) to include
  • Hit send
• Over in Google Maps it shows the new ‘route for the day’
• Hit ‘Send to car’ and it shows up in the built in maps, and off you go

Really hope this could be added as it would be a powerful feature for longer trips, thanks -

Seems like a great idea; I’ll look into it.

Thanks,
