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 However, reliability issues (crashes and misrouting), high price, limited route customization, and outdated POI data are the most recurring downsides.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  • Outdated or inaccurate POI data and missing/incorrect hours
Recent reviews
I recently completed the entire Chicago to Santa Monica westbound road trip and I used this app for navigation the entire way. It was the only option I could find for heads up turn by turn directions connected to my car via Apple CarPlay. I was concerned given some of the reviews, but in practice it performed perfectly and was exactly what I was looking for to make the trip easily and authentically. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants this type of navigation support.

We had 5 or 6 of the books that were supposed to be the best for following Route 66. Using this app, we didn’t need the books at all. We tried using the books a couple of times and after getting lost we switched back to the app. Best money we spent preparing for out road trip.

Be prepared for dead ends not revealed by the app. Also in map view after clicking on a point of interest the exiting it drops you back to your location which was very annoying.
