Route-based weather
Highway Miles places available weather radar within the truck navigation experience. Review rain, thunderstorms, snow, and changing conditions around the route without repeatedly moving between navigation and a separate weather app.
For truck drivers, weather preparation includes the pickup, delivery, fuel stop, and the miles between them. Compare radar along the route with forecasts at stops, then review official warnings before deciding when to depart or take a break.
Full-featured commercial truck navigation. Free to use. No navigation subscription required.
Free ad-supported phone navigation. Optional $5.99/month Ad-Free subscription. Separately licensed integrations and future paid features are outside this phone plan.

What it includes
How to use it
What drivers need to know
Open the weather controls and enable radar to see available precipitation information with the route map. Look beyond your current location to the areas you expect to travel through.
Radar is weather information, not a guarantee that a road is passable. Coverage, refresh timing, and connectivity can affect what is shown.
Open weather for a planned stop to review available conditions, hourly forecasts, and alerts. Consider the weather expected around arrival, not just the weather where you are now.
Forecasts are estimates. Use official current warnings and carrier procedures when deciding whether to stop, delay, or change the trip.
While parked, press and hold a point on the map and review its available weather details. This can help you assess a potential stop or another area along the trip.
This feature provides weather radar and forecasts for trip planning. It is not vehicle collision radar, a radar detector, or a guarantee of severe-weather avoidance.
