Installed it and tried some bike route to a nearby place...
It wanted to route me via the normal roads (admittedly low-traffic ones, but still...)...
There seems to be no option for a "scenic route" or even a different one from the single, proposed one?
For finding cycle paths and quiet roads, I can highly recommend https://cycle.travel/map - it doesn't find "scenic" routes yet, but I think the author has been planning to add that :)
You might try TrailForks instead for biking and scenery. But I haven't seen a map software that does specifically curated scenic routes automatically, that sounds like a pretty hard problem to be honest. How would the map know what is scenic and what isn't?
For those kind of routes I still rely on random blogs or known good directories.
For me, switching to bike route mode froze my phone. Not going to use this I guess.
