If you do not want to use Google Maps for navigation or have the free version of Circuit Route Planner, you will not be able to use Circuit's Internal Navigation so in order to avoid switching between Circuit and your navigation app, instead, you can use:
On Android the navigation bubble
Tap > Navigation mode bubble to on
On iOS the dynamic Island
Open your iOS device settings to enable Live Activities
Go to Settings > Face ID & Passcode and enter your passcode
Set Live Activities to > On
Open Circuit Route Planner and start a route
Then minimize the app to go from full screen to dynamic island view
With these features enabled, Circuit Route Planner appears in the navigation bubble/dynamic island, and your chosen navigation app appears on your phone screen.
