Users most often praise Tourstart’s flexible route planning, ease of use, and ability to work with routes across devices. Repeated complaints concern limited road-avoidance settings, incomplete or inaccurate map and address data, account access problems, and occasional navigation or map reliability issues.

### Pros

- Route creation is often described as straightforward and easy to use, including on a computer or phone.
- Routes can be used across devices and shared with others; users value building routes on a PC and opening them in the app.

### Cons

- Address and map data can be incomplete or inaccurate, with users reporting missing addresses and a desire for better U.S. coverage.
- Some users report account access or registration problems, including trouble signing in with Google or registering an email address.
