When launched from the home screen, the app has its own data sandbox it uses to store the route you are working on. Unlike an app installed from the app store, you can install multiple copies of On The Go Map with different names to your home screen. Each copy has its own sandbox, so you can save a different route in each one. This is not ideal, but full support for saving routes is the next thing I plan to add. If you are interested in helping shape that feature, please reach out to info@onthegomap.com or fill out this anonymous form to share your use-case.
