    No, you can plan a route and transfer it to iGO. If you have created a route in Google Maps, click the three dots on the top right, select share route, select map2geo, select the program you want to transfer to and the route will be transferred in the selected program. In Google Maps, I enter addresses by voice, and I never use search in IGO, only through Google Maps + Map2Geo in iGO...

    The safest way is to create a route with Google Earth, save it in kml and place the file in iGO_xxxx/content/userdata/ROUTE

    I want to refresh your memory:

    _ Start iGO LUNA (Imperative).
    _ Start Google Maps to choose a destination.
    _ Then choose > Share the place > Transfer to other map (Map2Geo).
    _ Choose iGO Luna.
    _ iGO Luna opens with the route pending.
    _ Good road.

    AND...

    So it is not a matter of transferring the exact Google maps route, according to traffic collected by Google,
    as:
    • the only thing that iGO takes into account is the destination point coordinates
    • the route will be created according to the criteria laid down in iGO (for example, taking into account toll roads, etc...)
    You can see the route in Google maps, but is just that.

    It's a matter of:
    • speed, using Goggle maps to search for a destination, instead of iGO's Keyboard (Sharing Google maps result via Map2Geo is necessary)
    • finding more relevant to destination results

    @batiskaf

    You don't have to interpret my answers as challenges, I just gave my opinion, if what you say works too, users have two ways to transfer routes to iGO and they can choose the one they like best.

    I'm not familiar with Cyrillic but I tried to make a route starting from Pisa, first stop in Lucca, second stop in Florence and arrival in Siena.
    I don't have the share route item but share driving directions and share location, however Map2Geo in iGO Israel only transfers the destination (Siena) and in Luna it doesn't transfer anything, I disabled Maps updates but it still doesn't transfer anything in Luna.
