Planning a route in MyRouteOnline takes three steps. First, import your address list — from Excel, CSV, text file, Google Drive, or Dropbox — or enter addresses manually.

Within seconds, MyRouteOnline returns an optimized stop sequence that minimizes your total driving distance or time, depending on the goal you selected.

Paid plans start at $19 per month (Basic), with a Pay As You Go option available from $24 valid for 12 months.

MyRouteOnline accepts Excel (.xlsx and .xls), CSV, and plain text files. You can also import directly from Google Drive or Dropbox. The Import Wizard opens automatically and lets you map each column — address, title, service time, comments, phone number, filter — so you do not need to reformat your existing spreadsheet before importing.
Yes. After planning, you can manually drag and drop any stop to a different position in the sequence. You can also add new addresses to the existing route, remove stops, or re-plan with updated parameters without losing your original list. When you are satisfied with the result, export the route to Excel, email it to your driver, or open it directly in the MyRoute app for navigation.
MyRouteOnline lets you email a route directly from the planner. The driver receives an email containing the full stop list in optimized order, turn-by-turn driving directions, a printable map, and a link to open the route in the MyRoute app on their smartphone. If you use a Garmin or TomTom GPS device, you can also export the route in the compatible format for those devices.
Routes planned in MyRouteOnline can be navigated using the MyRoute app, Google Maps, Waze, Apple Maps, Garmin, or TomTom. The MyRoute app is the recommended option for multi-stop navigation, as it steps through each stop in sequence and lets drivers mark stops as complete, capture proof of delivery photos, and send real-time status updates.
