Any apps out there that are good about planning out multiple stops on a route? I'd like for it to be truck friendly but it doesn't have to be. I just would like to know in simple term what order makes the most sense and helps me be more efficient. Specifically in places I'm not quite familiar with.
Thx.

Google maps has multiple stops 99% of apps involving routing use Google maps anyways

Just realized this, thx. Saying that, it doesn't route the stops for you, so you still have to manually decide which order to make stops in. -
The Garmin Dezl has a "route optimizer" but I've never messed with it. And I'm assuming the RM does too. I'm not sure if web-based Google maps has any sort of route optimizer or not. However with Google maps on a desktop, it's easy to save all your stops, view them on a map and drag to optimize in way that makes sense to you, but it won't be truck friendly and this can be a real problem in some areas of the US

I use the Route4me app. Works really good.
59EX Thanks this. -
I have CoPilot on my tablet as a backup...there is a phone version (not sure if it's android and apple or just android). The free version is car only, but there is a paid truck version available. It not only gives you options for stops, but gives you multiple routes to choose from.
