Comments on Footpath Route Planner for Android

★★★★★ R Dub · Jun 13, 2026

It's everything I wanted in a route planner for hiking. Simple and reasonably intuitive. The map itself is very accurate, and the GPS accuracy is excellent. (looking at you, Google Maps....) Being able to draw routes with your finger straight into the app saves having to map on PC and export to phone, although you can do this too. Elevation profile is awesome. Calculates time based on adjustable average speed. These are just free features, I will definitely look into upgrading this awesome app.

★★★★★ Katie Pillman · May 18, 2026

It is so easy with the press of a finger to plan your route.

★★★★★ James Mullen · Jul 8, 2026

Perfect distance for me. I have COPD. It is an easy walk for me and is in the shade for the most part.

★☆☆☆☆ Meg dean · Apr 20, 2026

Does not do what the ad claims. Draw a pathway, and it absolutely does NOT show the proper trails. It says "Nice trail".

★★☆☆☆ Kathleen Milby · Jan 7, 2026

Not very helpful. Had it on ios, and it was amazing, however on android it only allows me to plan one route then when I clear it to do another it won't work at all, the only way to fix it is uninstalled then reinstall.

★☆☆☆☆ Jared Cárdenas · Jun 13, 2026

Not good for North Carolina. Recommendations are literally on the main roads without side walks but then again most of USA sucks for walking

★★☆☆☆ Eli Ran · Oct 19, 2025

Looks nice, but where's the optimize & start navigating button? Only lets you draw a route. The tutorial skips that part too. You guys need to fix UX.

★☆☆☆☆ Jarrod Loewen · Jun 7, 2026

A route planner that almost entirely ignores green ways and parks in favor of keeping you in traffic is of no use to me.
