Guide to AndNav2 offline plotting
and by offline, I mean online, but that you can *use offline *on your phone and thus save masses of battery life.
In short, go here to plot the route, add as many via points as you like, an end point, export that bad boy. Copy it over to your phone with a USB cable or whatnot.
Fire up your android phone, put it in aeroplane mode with the GPS on (battery saving!), on the start menu you will see SEARCH as an option
choose that, and at the top of the screen you will see two tabs, the one on the right being offline. Choose that, search the SD card for the route, and load it up.
Away you go!
don't forget to preload map tiles for the route before you go. There's more about that further up the page. If you do it for a big area that you usually ride (e.g. M25 limit) then it's worth doing properly. If you just do it every now and then, you can press menu and then preload. It will only preload the level of zoom that you are actually looking at, so zoom it in a bit first.
Hope that helps!
