 Here you can select the default service for calculating routes for **[[manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:point-to-point|Navigate to]]** feature and the **[[manual:user_guide:tracks:planning|Route planner]]**. Locus Map has its own service **LoRouter** but it can also cooperate with **external routers**. Each service has specific properties, some are functional online only, and some work offline (after downloading offline navigation data).\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:naviset07.jpg?nolink |}}
 ==== LoRouter Online ====
-This service offers **9 routing profiles** (walk, hike, bike touring, MTB, gravel and road bikes, cross-country skiing and two car profiles) and is available online and free of charge.

   * **Include street names** - when turned on, street names are added to the waypoints along the route (if available). It slightly delays the route computing time.\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:naviset21.jpg |}}

   * **[[https://www.graphhopper.com/|GraphHopper]]** - very fast and data-efficient routing service. Suitable for all ordinary outdoor activities. It offers three bike profiles: **cycle**, **MTB**, and **racing**, two types of walk profiles: **walk** and **hike** and a **car** navigation profile.
   * **[[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=btools.routingapp|BRouter]]** - external offline router - requires the installation of an independent application **BRouter** and downloading offline navigation data.
-==== Custom routing profiles ====
-Besides the LoRouter or BRouter profiles embedded directly in Locus, it is also possible to use profiles provided by the BRouter developer or by other users as the **.BRF files**:
+**[[manual:faq:how_to_navigate_offline|More about routers, routing profiles and their configuration >>]]**
-  * copy them into **/Locus/router/profiles2** directory
-  * restart the app.
-**[[https://github.com/poutnikl/Brouter-profiles/wiki|Poutnik's GitHub page]]** provides further information on this as well as many ready-to-use profiles.

 ===== Link with presets =====
 Linking with the app **[[manual:user_guide:settings:presets|presets]]** enables **fast re-setting of the whole app after the navigation start** so that its preferences are **better suitable for navigation**. E.g. cursor is shifted, map rotation is on, the screen is turned permanently on etc. Three most used navigation profiles can be linked - walking, biking and motor vehicle:\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:naviset04.gif?nolink |}}
