ArcRoute focuses on the ride itself, for iPhone riders from Britain to the Balkans: the riding time under every curviness step, loops that land on the time you have, and a heatmap of every road you have ridden.
What each app does today, and what is free. Every Calimoto fact has its source under the table.

Three things ArcRoute is built around. Each has its own page if you want more.
Four steps from Direct to Wild, and the riding time under each one.
Say how far or how long, and which way. The loop comes back at or just under it.
Record the season and watch your roads light up, brightest where you ride most.
With Calimoto you plan for free and pay for navigation. ArcRoute has no free version, and new riders try everything free first. App Store prices, VAT included.

App Store prices, VAT included: the crowns from the Czech store, the euros from the German one. Each store has its own price list, so the crowns and the euros do not follow the exchange rate.
Plan a loop, ride it, and watch it land on your map. Keep Calimoto while you decide.

The support page has the rest, from sign-in to subscriptions.
No. ArcRoute is one subscription with every feature in it, and new riders try it free first. The price table above has both apps side by side.
Yes, as GPX files. Calimoto exports GPX with Premium; ArcRoute imports the file, snaps it to the roads and guides you along it with voice.
Partly. A saved ride runs from the phone, turns and voice included, but planning and rerouting need a connection, and the map shows only what the phone has already loaded. Downloadable offline maps are not there yet; Calimoto has them with Premium.
Then Calimoto is the one to choose today. ArcRoute is built natively for iPhone, and there is no Android version planned right now.
No. ArcRoute guides you with the phone on the bars or in your pocket and speaks into your helmet over Bluetooth, in English or Czech. Calimoto supports CarPlay and Android Auto with Premium.
In Czechia, yes: ArcRoute reads the official closure data, plans around it and shows the closures on the map. Outside Czechia it does not know about closures. Calimoto takes closure data from TomTom.
No. Ride another way and once a stop is behind you, the recalculation skips it and leads you on. One you only just missed it still aims for, around the block if need be. In Calimoto you skip a via point by hand during navigation; otherwise it routes you back to it.
In twenty-seven countries: Britain and Ireland, the Benelux, France and Italy, Spain, Portugal and Andorra, from Germany and Poland down to Albania, and Morocco. The coverage page shows each one with its roads. Calimoto routes worldwide.
