Excellent site.    Is there a way to add waypoints from a touchscreen (e.g., ipad)?    I put in my start and finish points and get a route, but then I'd like to be able to adjust the route slightly, but can't seem to find a way to do so via touchscreen.    The app interprets touches as changes to start or finish.    And I seem unable to touch the route, hold and then move as I can with a mouse on a laptop screen.    Many thanks.

In the medium term there'll be a proper app, but until then, the easiest way is:

  1. click on a section of your existing route;
  2. in the little bubble that appears, click 'Add via point';
  3. drag the via point from the existing route to wherever you want it

OK, thanks Richard.    I'll experiment.    Again, an excellent site.    Thanks.

Hi, I’ve been looking for an App on the App Store - has one been created yet ?  Thanks.
