Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Is it just me or is the 'follow routes' feature not working?

Just trying to plot some routes for next week, but the follow roads feature seems to be out of action.

There’s a daily quota because of Google’s charging model.

I think I remember reading that it's a rolling 24 hour, rather than resetting at midnight, so if if's been used up mostly later in the day today, then still might not be available early hours

Sadly I have to occasionally resort to mapometer, but only after trying Fetch first

Thx for explaining that Diogenes. I’d noticed it was usually unavailable in the evenings but figured it was because the site was busy doing something else.

I have noticed recently you can't seem to use it earlier in the day whereas previously it was OK until later in the day.

Gus that would make sense

I use runnermaps.nl it's just something I'm used to. You can export a gpx into a Fetch route if you want. It is simply that I find the Fetch tool a lot more awkward to use on an ipad.

Got something to say?
