The Road Warrior Route Planner helps you find the best traffic-free routes by prioritizing your route on time, traffic and schedule. Using the app is fairly easy. This isn't a stand-alone navigation app. It works with Google Maps, Apple Maps, Waze and others.

TomTom Go. Used it this weekend around Scotland - 4 or 5 waypoints set each day (as well as final destination).
Can even save routes in a web browser on laptop at mydrive.tomtom.com and will sync with the app.

+1 for myroute, use it all the time. If using android also download "routes" app, you can then save your route from myroutes app as a KML file and open in routes to get spoken turn by turn instructions.

Another +1 for MyRoute App.

Unlimited waypoints and both desktop and mobile access.

The navigation is handled by a separate App (same company) and syncing is seamless. Check out the bundles for the best value options.

yes it does.....
draw your route then share or just send to phone

I've done a few routes for TVR run outs

make sure you zoom in on your route to ensure no off road points (drag and save if you have)

Both.

MyRoute-app mobile is more feature rich designing/creating routes & those routes can be opened in MyRoute-app Navigation or loaded to appropriate Garmin/TomTom Satnavs

Sorry to hijack the thread but which one is the best app if I want to create waypoints and import into Waze?

I’ve just tried RoadWarrior as someone suggested above, which looked good at first and allowed me to add several waypoints, but when I import it in to Waze it just comes up with the first waypoint, not all the others.

Am I doing something wrong or is there a better app to use?

Have a look at Google MyMaps. You plan the route, and can share it and also have it as a layer for directions in Google Maps.

Thanks very much! I did create a route and it opened just find in the MyRoute-app Navigation iOS app, but I'm not sure I'm going to get much value out of the subscription given the severe lack of time I have these days to go for joyrides.

I started looking at a free app called "Scenic" instead which has potential.

Another vote for Google Maps

Routes can be planned in advance and saved offline
Speed Camera Alerts
Real time alerts and diversions if needed
GPS Speed displayed

I’ve been using InRoute app for 5 years.
Plotting out the desired routes using dropped ‘waypoint’ pins, which can be configured as simple via points, or with specific time spent at the waypoint location.
Routes created and saved on an iPad are then available on iPhone or desktop pc.
Routes can also be exported in GPX format for uploading into other navigation software.
