Wisconsin Camaro uses a program online called Google My Maps to create the cruise maps we follow in our cars. We've tried many phone apps and have not had good luck...
To follow along in a cruise (or if you get lost) we recommend downloading the cruise map to your phone beforehand and follow along as you drive. This will create a blue route overlay onto Google Maps that you can follow and "trace the steps". Unfortunately Google Navigation does not work with this custom created route - so you'll have to keep your eyes on the map every once in awhile.
It is STRONGLY recommended that you place your phone into a phone holder in your Camaro and have a means of charging it. The cruise leader usually sets their phone's display to "never turn off".
The directions below show you how to load the map into Google Maps if you have an Android phone (iPhone & Windows phones may be similar).
Step 1: Click/touch the map hyperlink in the cruise event page. Select your gmail account you use for Google Maps to open.
Step 2: Map will open in a new browser. Click/touch the name of the map on the bottom of the screen (circled here in red).
Step 3: The following menu opens. Make sure both boxes are checked. If they aren't the map on Step 2 would be blank. Close the window/browser.
Step 4: Open Google Maps app and click/touch the menu icon in the upper left (circled here in red).
Step 5: Click/touch "Your places" (circled here in red).
Step 6: Scroll the tabs all the way to the right and click/touch "MAPS" and click/touch the Camaro Cruise map (circled here in red).
Step 7: Cruise map is now visible on your Google Maps. You can zoom and pan - you cannot edit the map.
Step 8: If you open the Google Maps menu (three lines symbol), you'll now see that the cruise map is highlighted. Click/touch this to hide/show the map.
Step 9: When the cruise is underway, click/touch and HOLD the GPS icon on the bottom right (circled here in red) to toggle your view heading (if enabled). When you are on the cruise route, the blue line on the roads will appear. Follow it! (not pictured here)
