IOS vs Windows prepared routes

If a ‘same’ Route is prepared in BC on an Apple Mac, and also on a Windows PC (identical in BC), does the XT treat the two routes in exactly the same way?
We have both IOS and Windows machines in our house.
Thank you, Mikey.

Assuming the base map is the same, then yes.

I have both and no differences. You are talking an apple computer not mobile device, right? Just making sure because iOS is their mobile operating system.

I figured, but just wanted to be sure 🙂
FYI their operating system is simply MacOS. It used to be OSX, then X, now MacOS.

Having used BC in both PC and Mac in the past, the only difference I ever saw (and it may be old news if Windows graphics have improved since then) was in how the maps display, with a smoother, more colorful look on the Macs. There were also small differences in which tools were available and which keys did what, in each OS, but despite that they functioned identically and produced identical routes on the GPS.
