About PermitNav
PermitNav turns your state oversize/overweight (OSOW) permit into the route it authorizes — with truck turn-by-turn navigation, so you stay on the permitted roads instead of a generic GPS line. Snap photos or upload the PDF of your state permit and PermitNav reads the route table, rebuilds the route road by road across the roads your permit names and checks it against the permit — then guides you down it, turn by turn. WHY DRIVERS USE IT • Permit to route without typing in a single road. • Before you drive, the review screen shows the permit's width, height, length and weight, its dates, any movement-time restriction, and every condition printed on the permit. • Road restriction notes on your route — bridge heights, closures, seasonal limits — from the state agencies' published data. • Voice-guided turn-by-turn, posted speed limits, and live speed; off-route alerts and guidance back to the permitted route. • Driver logbook: miles today, drive time, and time since your last break. • Crowd-sourced DOT/inspection alerts along your route. • Saved permits and routes, dark/light/auto themes, and car navigation for everyday driving. FREE + PAID • Free: car navigation. • Subscriptions (Starter, Standard, Pro, or Fleet) unlock permit reading, permitted-route building, and truck routing. • Or buy a one-time permit credit to read a single permit. IMPORTANT — ALWAYS FOLLOW YOUR OFFICIAL PERMIT PermitNav is a driver aid, not a substitute for your permit or professional judgment. Always follow the official permit and posted signage, and field-verify clearances before every move. SUBSCRIPTIONS PermitNav offers auto-renewing monthly subscriptions: Starter ($9.99/mo), Standard ($19.99/mo), Pro ($39.99/mo), Fleet ($99.99/mo), plus a one-time permit credit ($1.99). Payment is charged to your Apple ID at purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel in your Apple ID Account Settings. Prices are in USD and may vary by region. Terms of Use: https://pythn.app/permitroute/terms.html Privacy Policy: https://pythn.app/permitroute/privacy.html
What’s new
Version 1.2.6 · Updated October 8, 2026
Clearer permit uploads, smarter guidance, and a better CarPlay drive. • Upload help that tells you what to do: half a permit asks for the missing pages, a state PermitNav doesn't read yet is named (with a one-tap "Ask for" that state), and a read still running gets its own card instead of an error. • Scan permit pages with the camera, page by page. • Each route shows how far it is verified — Verified, or Check N items — and why, with every flagged spot on the map before you drive. • Alerts ahead of posted bridges and low clearances on your route, and travel windows and curfews checked at Start and during the drive. • Exit numbers on the turn card, clearer prompts where turns come close together, and "Arrived at stop N" on multi-stop trips. • CarPlay: turn-by-turn on the car screen, the Dashboard and the instrument cluster, with Mute, Overview and zoom buttons. • Many reliability fixes for drives that restart, reroute, or lose signal.
