So I checked out OsmAnd's route planning today. It was... interesting. I plotted a sort of loop and it took me on something of a wild goose chase, but I didn't really mind that. What I did mind was it directing me over a railway footbridge (lots of steps) and into a brick wall, but I had strayed off route so I can probably forgive it. But it's perfectly adequate for what I need, I didn't have any trouble following the directions and the voice commands (while annoyingly American) were audible enough. For no money, I cannot complain. Would be good if it recorded the ride so I could upload it to Strava, but other than that, a great recommendation. Cheers.

It's more of a plan and edit rather than let plan for you app.

I'm pretty sure it has other audio options. Maybe i'm just thinking of other languages and we're stuck with American for English.

Tbh I use it for the map not for the route planning. Also for finding campsites and hotels at the end of the day (configure map->POI overlay. Also useful for other things like water sources, as skinny says).

Garmin 1000 with openfietsmap.nl maps on which have cycle paths marked, OsmAnd on the phone for when I want a bigger overview (get it off fdroid for the full version without in-app purchases, download all the relevant maps before you go, https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.osmand.plus/ ), plus a vague idea of the direction I'm going in so I can use the local street signs.
