Inaccurate Route Times

I've recently created route to run the Cherohala Skyway in Tennessee as round trip from Pigeon Forge, TN, USA  My total time is calculated by Scenic app as 4.0 hours for 187 miles  When same route is loaded into Google maps the total trip time is 5 hours.  Based on expected aver MPH the 5 hours seems more accurate.  Why such a big difference with Scenic?

Scenic’s 3rd party map provider doesn’t know the speed limits for some roads. If that's the case for roads in your route, it uses an arbitrary value which is too high. Let me see if I can tweak it for the next update.
Cheers and apologies for the inconvenience,
Guido

If you're enjoying Scenic and are happy with the support, please leave a nice rating in the App Store. It would mean a lot to me ❤️

Guido,

Thanks for the really timely response.  In spite of this small issue,Scenic is the Best trip / gps app by far for motorcyclist.  And I've looked at dozens of them.  I turn everybody that rides that I come in contact with, onto Scenic.  I'm amazed at the number for riders who haven't heard of it, but the word is spreading.

Keep up the excellent work!!

Love the app...but the trip times are getting me in trouble with the Mrs.   Even on some pretty common/main roads the times are off by ~25%.  Hope we're due to see some updates...for now I'll have to confirm route times with google maps (or put a florist as the end point of the ride).

Thanks
