Checkout a way to jump start your road trip planning. Instead of clicking on the map you can enter start and end points (or just the start point if you are planning a round trip). Furkot will even geolocate you, which saves some typing if you happen to start your trip from home. Prefer to go straight to the map? Just press Done at any point and Furkot will take you there.
You can now tell Furkot to automatically add LPG stations along the route. And you can search for the LPG / Propane Autogas stations in the Eat drawer.
Furkot now helps you track expenses for your trip. You set the mileage rate, add hotel charges, stop costs, and tolls. Or you can use the standard Per Diem allowance.
We would like to apologize. For a couple of hours Keep me signed in option was broken. The trips and the account details of 22 Furkot users were shown to a small number of different Furkot users.
Read the announcement in full here.
Waze and Organic Maps are now among supported navigation apps.
You can now invite friends to your trip by copying an invite link and using your favorite messaging app to share it.
More control over which routes are selected: you can tell Furkot to avoid ferries and unpaved roads. If you want Furkot will warn you about the toll roads or unpaved roads that part of your itinerary. Curvy roads can be preferred if you are planning motorcycle trip.
Furkot has a new toggle to facilitate switching to non-stop travel. You can flip it for the entire trip or a specific day. Furkot is not going to add automatic overnight stops when non-stop travel is selected.
Various export improvements added: you can now perform exports in on-line mode and - if your browser supports it - Furkot will ask which folder should your exported file end up in.
You can now take a ferry cross the Mercy 🎵 - or some other body of waters - ⛴️ ferry travel mode is here.
Against our better judgement 😉 fast food now has its own dedicated button in the EAT drawer.
Planning roadtrip in your electric vehicle ? Tell Furkot which connector you need and it will help you to find charging stations along the route.
