Access to route steps when there is no active navigation

As suggested nichope on Harbour:

When searching the route between point A and point B (instead of the route between your GPS location and point B), it only shows the route steps in the preview page, but if you select "Accept", then the route is drawn in the map, but the steps are not accessible any more (unless you search for the same route again and stay in preview page). It would be nice if the route apears on top of the screen (scrollable, with all the steps, or with on step at a time and buttons/swipes to navigate between the steps).

Otherwise, having the active route appear n the "Navigation" page (with an option to cancel it) or in ta new page accessible through a button on the screen would work. These two could also be combined with the page which currently shows all the route steps in "GPS to point B" navigation. Letting "A to B" navigation become "GPS to B"navigation if a GPS signal is found near the route's path may be a good (optional) feature as well, since some devices are very slow in fixing their GPS location, and sometimes you can't just wait until the GPS finds you before you start moving.
