Gaggle has support for routes and also a return home which will guide you back to your take-off location. When you aren’t flying a specific route the default behaviour is to make your take-off location your only waypoint that Gaggle will always guide you back to.
Gaggle will show all the waypoints for your route on the map.
The next waypoint is colored in orange (yellow for satellite map view) with a line and arrow pointing to the next waypoint. At the bottom of the screen is the navigation widget show you time, distance, and direction to the next waypoint. Wind conditions are taken into account for travel time calculations.
Upcoming waypoints are colored in blue on the map and also show the distance and travel time to the waypoint.
Previous waypoints are colored in grey on the map.
To edit your route waypoints you can tap the navigation instrument. This will open up the route list view. From here you can add, remove waypoints.
