For me, the only way I can get an "Attach to Roads" option is to edit the track, and then it's under options in the editor - it doesn't appear to be a choice when navigating a track, only editing it.
It will ask me to pick a snap distance, and a profile, and then (for a larger route) it will compute for a long time with a subtle progress bar moving across the divider between screen segments, until finally the "Apply" button becomes active. Doing it in advance rather than during the navigation probably does have some advantages, though I quickly learned to first save as a new route in case things get messed up. In particular, I had issues with a route planned on a road snapping instead to the adjacent sidewalk (pavement, road parallel footpath) until I used a profile in which "footpaths" were selected as a road type to avoid. This halfway works for me - I feel like it's still kind of needed to review the route vs the original and make sure it didn't make major changes, and I'd love a way to do that on an actual computer not a tiny phone screen. Also I don't really like having to ban footpaths in routing, rather as a cyclist I'd like to allow them but "prefer roads" - the legality of cycling on footpaths varies in ways the source data can't really know, but there are plenty of places where I may want to plan a route that consists of roads that don't connect by car, but do if you're willing to walk your bike a short distance.
