How would you see this being implemented? I mean, how in your view could preferences like this be implemented in a user-friendly manner in the app without being overly complicated? Asking for real, since this is a use case that you have personally dealt with.

I would put anothe toggle under the navigation options.

Like put another option here that says something like "prefer main roads" or something to that degree.

Currently the only options are avoiding tolls, ferries, motorways and unpaved surfaces.
