Speedy Route Android App retired from Google Play

The Android App version of Speedy Route has today been retired and removed from the Google Play App Store, and will no longer be available for download.

Please note that only the Android App version of Speedy Route has been discontinued! The website version of Speedy Route that you know and love is still going from strength to strength, with new features to be made available in the near future.

The Android App version of Speedy Route pre-dated the full website version, and did not include some of the advanced website features such as multiple vehicles and time-boxing etc. The Android App was also not integrated with the website Speedy Route accounts, meaning that the App did not share website subscriptions, and routes could not be shared or uploaded from the website to the Android App.

We will be releasing new fully integrated App versions of Speedy Route for Android and iOS (iPhone / iPad) in the near future, and the removal of the old Android App clears the way for these new releases.

Please note that existing users of the old Android App will be able to continue to use the App while they use up any existing location credits. It will not be possible however to purchase any new location credits.

Keep checking the blog for updates about the upcoming new iOS and Android Speedy Route Apps!

Speedy Route now also accepts PayPal payments

We're pleased to announce that Speedy Route subscriptions can now also be purchased via PayPal, in addition to our existing payment methods.

Speedy Route has always accepted credit/debit card payments (through our excellent merchant account provider stripe.com), but some of our customers have indicated a preference for PayPal if possible, so we have now added this as an alternative payment method.

The 'Purchase a Subscription' popup now has a payment method choice of either credit/debit card, or PayPal:

Purchase a Subscription popup

If you choose the PayPal option and click 'Pay Now', Speedy Route will setup a PayPal payment ready to be authorized and ask you for confirmation to 'Check out with PayPal':

PayPal Express Checkout popup

Clicking 'Check out with PayPal' will open up a new window or tab where you can login to your PayPal account and authorize the payment. Upon authorization of the payment, you will be returned to Speedy Route and the subscription purchase is completed.

Remember that any current valid subscription allows you to make unlimited route calculation requests while the subscription is in effect, and each route can contain up to 500 locations!

Route Start Time and Location Timeboxing

We've just introduced yet another new set of Speedy Route features, hot on the heels of our previous blog post about 'drag & drop' locations!

Speedy Route now supports 'timeboxed locations', allowing you to specify time-based constraints as to when some or all of your route's locations may be visited during the day.

Timeboxing also allows a route Start Time to be set, so that you can quickly tell what time of day each location will be visited, and optional wait periods at each location can also be specified.

Take a look at our latest Speedy Route Tips and Tricks article for full details about timeboxing.

Drag & Drop Route Re-Ordering and Reverse Routes

We'd like to wish a very (belated) Happy New Year from Speedy Route to all our customers!

In celebration of the new year, we have introduced some new Speedy Route features, namely Drag & Drop route locations, and Reverse Calculated Route.

Drag and drop route calculations was the most requested new feature in our recent survey, which allows you to quickly fine-tune the ordering of your route after Speedy Route has initially calculated the optimal route. Speedy Route will immediately re-calculate the route's driving directions, distance, and duration, incorporating your manual modifications as you alter the location ordering.

The related new 'Reverse Calculated Route' feature allows you to quickly alter the direction of a looped route calculated by Speedy Route, and traverse the route in the opposite direction. Again, all the route's driving directions, distance, and duration information is then immediately updated.

Please see our new Speedy Route Tips and Tricks article for full details about these new features.

We have many more new feature in the pipeline for 2015, so remember to revisit the blog regularly for news and updates.
