User Reviews

Users widely praise Route 66 Navigation for CarPlay integration, staying on the Route 66 path, and surfacing many attractions along the way. However, reliability issues (crashes and misrouting), high price, limited route customization, and outdated POI data are the most recurring downsides.
Pros
  • CarPlay-compatible turn-by-turn navigation with easy car integration
  • Keeps you on Route 66 and provides route guidance along the historic route
  • Pops up nearby Points of Interest and attractions as you drive
  • Helpful for planning and discovering sights, reducing reliance on guidebooks
Cons
  • Frequent crashes/lockups when setting destinations or during navigation
  • Off-route or dead-end re-routing; inconsistent routing can be confusing
  • High price/subscription model; perceived poor value
  • Limited route customization (only two routes; cannot create a personal, tailored trip)
  • Outdated or inaccurate POI data and missing/incorrect hours

I rely on CarPlay on my screen but this app displays only a blank map. It is completely useless to anyone who doesn’t have a passenger who can use the phone on the trip. I feel completely conned and will NOT recommend this app to anyone. I wouldn’t have purchased this but for the promise of CarPlay. What a sad business practice.

This app does have its quirks, especially on reroutes, but overall did the job on our trip. We would have struggled to not miss the all of the points of interest without it. One recommendation- increase the poi alert distance to .5 miles out instead of .2. We had no issues with CarPlay as some others have reported.
