Free OS planner – free & simple, maps will get updates, no turn by turn no extra tools as Basecamp , only GB not abroad
Memory Map – Familiarity if have been using for along time

OS own app/online planner
OS does have a snap to path mix and match ,More tablet / mobile phone friendly then connect app on phone to transfer works well
