OsmAnd routing works OK for biking, but I specifically meant BRouter.

The first thing I noticed was that it's a lot faster - I get the routing results almost immediately, even on a low spec phone (with the drawback that you need additional space for the routing segments).

The generated routes are a lot better, too. They make more "sense" from a bikers perspective, because BRouter is elevation-aware. It also gives tracks that are on official cycle routes a higher priority (can be disabled). I tested it with trips I usually cycle and it calculated routes that were very similar if not identical to the ones I chose myself. That's what I expect from a good routing algorithm.

There are some interesting resources available on the BRouter algorithm: https://brouter.de/brouter/index.html

The source code is here: https://github.com/abrensch/brouter

I have used maps.me until a few years ago but was never really happy with the performance of the bike routing algorithm.

I've switched to Osmand [1] and BRouter [2] (both available on F-Droid) and nerver looked back. BRouter on Android is a bit tricky to set up (you need to download routing tiles in addition to the map files through a really ugly UI), but once you're done it's the best bike navigator I can think of (and it's really fast).

The BRouter profiles are highly customizable, check out Poutnik's repositories [3] for examples. Some of his profiles and many others con be tested on https://brouter.m11n.de/ (german).

I stumbled across this after finding out that OpenWrt has a new nftables-based firewall and didn't recognize the language it was written in: https://git.openwrt.org/?p=project/firewall4.git;a=summary
