Scenic uses OSM maps sourced from a service. For me, it's the second thing right after all of the features I require. ![]() Pricing is the first or maybe second thing most of us look at when it comes to mobile Apps. But, that's not all, Guido is adding features that have been requested over the past year from many of the Scenic users: for example, Custom POI support and route/trip management (sorting and grouping into folders/categories). This is no simple code update but rather a complete rewrite of the Scenic code to optimize performance, usability and improve stability. It is one of the few that properly support both iPhone and iPad in portrait and landscape orientations.įor you Android users, Guido is open to the possibility but don't expect it in 2018 as he is working full-time on a major update to the Apple version of Scenic. Scenic is currently only available on Apple iPhone and iPad via the Apple App Store. His website,, is the place to find the latest info on the product and Guido's Blog. Scenic has been available now for just over a year and is a free-to-download App developed by Applified Life whose owner/developer, Guido van Eijsden, is also an avid rider. I've had a few favorites from time to time but only a few have really been focused on motorcycle riders from either a feature/function or user interface perspective. In the past ten years I've also been watching and evaluating mobile navigation Apps. Unfortunately, HERE Maps are not nearly as good as the best OSM Maps when it comes to the rest of the worlds countries.Īs most of my readers know, I'm a long-time evaluator of GPS devices and Trip Planning applications. HERE maps are the same maps used by Garmin for their City Navigator maps and are good if you live in North America or the EU countries but has some rather poor data for the rest of the world. ![]() One major change to Scenic v3 is the use of HERE Maps rather than the previous use of Open Street Map (OSM) maps. This rewrite has some very nice improvements in features and the user interface. UPDATE: At the beginning of 2022 Scenic had a major rewrite and is now at v3 level, which is currently available in the Apple App Store. ![]() Scenic - a Mobile Navigation App for iPhone & iPad Scenic - the Online/Offline Mobile Navigation App
