I’ve been spending a lot of time at the keyboard lately, and I’m excited to announce that a round‑trip planner is rolling out to #Bikerouter in the next few days.
This feature is powered by the round‑trip routing introduced in #BRouter 1.7.8. Choose a starting point, set a maximum distance (the loop’s radius), and pick an initial heading. The planner will then generate a round-trip using the currently selected routing profile.
It’s available now for testing at https://dev.bikerouter.de

Im #fdroid noch nicht verfügbar. Über #aurorastore installierbar. Aber:
Unter #lineageos nicht lauffähig, da #googleplay fehlt.

Eine neue Bike-Navigation-App. Noch Alpha aber kann schon getestet werden und funktioniert in den Basics.
Sieht auf alle Fälle vielversprechend aus. Hauptsache, sie verfällt nicht der Featuritis wie OSMand.

Another update is all about the routing engine: Bikerouter is now running on BRouter 1.7.8. This upgrade paves the way for the next big feature:
Round-trip planning.
Soon, you’ll be able to plan a circular route starting from a point of your choice. You’ll have plenty of options to customize your round-trip: direction, distance, routing profile, and more.
The screenshot shows an experimental implementation of the round-trip feature.
Stay tuned! 🚴♂️

Under the hood: I’ve completely refactored the build and deployment process for Bikerouter. The app is now built with #Vite and deployed automatically through a continuous integration setup.
Alongside the main site (https://bikerouter.de), you can now always check out the latest development snapshot (“nightly”) at https://dev.bikerouter.de and a preview of upcoming features at https://next.bikerouter.de.
Another big update: Elevation data outside Europe now uses SRTM with 1 arcsecond resolution, this is about 30 meters on the ground, instead of the previous 90 meters (3 arcseconds).
This means much more precise elevation calculations for your routes, especially in steep terrain!
For Europe, high-resolution data has already been in use for the past year.
Take a look at the before-and-after image (animated GIF):
When scrolling the sidebar down to the bottom, you’ll find a new settings section. It allows enabling two new features:
1. show terrain elevation at the mouse cursor
2. enable measurements of distances and bearing angles on the map
Ok, it’s time for some new features and improvements!
The new sidebar is now live in Bikerouter. It’s making the app much easier to use, especially on mobile devices. The sidebar opens on clicking the “Hamburger” button (1) in the top left of the screen.
The most popular routing profiles (2), as well as your most-used profiles (3), are now available as convenient buttons. All other profiles can be accessed via the drop-down menu.
