Ian, I'm not completely clear on what you want to do. Exporting to email is strange terminology for me. Also, it's not clear if you are referring to the website or the app. 

If you want to share the route via email there are two options.

The easiest is probably to copy the url of the (open) route, put that in an email and send it to whoever you want. (The route should be saved as 'public' not 'private'.) In this way the receiver can open the route, edit it, save it and download it in a format that suits them best or just save it for use on the phone app.

The alternative way is to download the file in the appropriate format. There are a variety of options. Once downloaded (and perhaps renamed to something suitable) this file can be attached to an email like any other attachment.

Sharing routes with friends

There’s a new easy way to share routes between phones, even if one’s an iPhone and the other is Android.

To share a route:

• Make sure the route is saved

• Click the ‘Save’ button and then ‘Send to friends’

• A popup will appear with a number in it

Then for your friends to load it:

• Click the ‘Routes’ button

• Click the person icon (top right)

• Enter the number from above

(This number is the same one that appears in the address bar of your browser when planning a route – e.g. https://cycle.travel/map/?journey=552184)

Thanks I will give it a try

Ian
