Route
Hi Team,
I’d like to propose a feature suggestion that could improve safety and routing flexibility for many drivers.
Right now, if users want to include a specific street or road segment on the way to a destination, the only workaround is to add it as a stop/waypoint. This creates a “stop” that the driver must manually confirm has been reached before continuing navigation. In real driving scenarios, having to interact with the phone to confirm an intermediate stop especially on busy roads can be unsafe.
What I’m suggesting is a native “Pass Through” or “Via Street” routing option that:
Lets the user specify a street segment or point to pass through on the route
Integrates that requirement into the route calculation without turning it into a separate stop
Continues voice-guided navigation normally without requiring driver interaction to confirm intermediate target points on the way
Benefits of this feature include:
Increased safety by reducing in-app confirmation taps while driving
Greater route control for users with fixed preferences (like known scenic or safer roads)
More predictable navigation experience for routes that include desired intermediate paths
Thank you for considering this suggestion. I’d be happy to provide further details or examples if needed.
Best regards,
Jonny
