Trip Locations, Activities and Checklists are integrated with Google Maps to display routes between selected locations, providing a visual representation of your travel itinerary between the selected locations on one screen.
After Trip Planning is complete and your trip has been built, when using the Mobile Trip profile you will be able to access the same information and make selections to display custom route maps.
