This stopped working at 1.42 when Strava made Route Builder changes, but emailed Veloviewer and a fix was deployed the same day. Great service. All working again. 5/5

This was an absolute game changer for tile exploring! No longer comparing maps left and right. This alone makes the VeloViewer subscription worth its moderate price. The Route Builder addon is working again! ✌🏼

Great tool for tiles addicts. Really easy to create a route to get net tiles. Unfortunately, the plugin doesn't work anymore after the recent Strava update. Will this be fixed?
