    @Corjan-Meijerink said in Location Icon is not on the actual road.:

    You mention that you are biking.

    Oh, @Corjan-Meijerink Corjan, you're probably not a biker. ๐Ÿ˜€ ๐Ÿ˜
    Because motorcyclists usually call their vehicle a bike. ๐Ÿ™‚
    But I can't speak for Steve of course. Maybe he's on a bicycle.

    Gelukkig is Nederlands makkelijker want daar noemen we onze motorfiets vaak fiets. ๐Ÿ˜€ ๐Ÿ˜

      In MyRoute-App Mobile when tracking or just watching the actual route, the bike location Icon is roughly a centimetre left of the actual road.
      I'm in the UK using the Here map. But all the others seem off too.

      Hi Steve, the location is where your phone is.
      In my situation 100% correct

        Nee hoor @Jack-van-Tilburg , ik noem mijn motorfiets, "munne motor"
        No, @Jack-van-Tilburg, I call my motorcycle, "munne motor"

          @Jack-van-Tilburg @Steve-Lynch Hahahah, much appreciated. I enjoyed your remark. You should know how many support tickets I get from Dutch people asking this exact question and then it really does apply to a cycle bike ๐Ÿ˜‰

          @Steve-Lynch Sorry for the confusion. Strange to see your location being off. It is known that the actual location is a bit behind your current (like a short delay) but not that it has this much offset in a horizontal direction. You could try restarting your phone to get the GPS calibrated a bit. If you open Google Maps (or another one) do you see the same offset? To be honest, Google Maps does some smart stuff to try to position you on the correct road even if the GPS is off. They do however give a warning that the GPS is inaccurate (if that is the case) and allow you to recalibrate.

              I will try again on Tuesday with MyRoute-App Mobile when I ride my motorbike to work.

              @Jack-van-Tilburg, Corjan is a biker too, I think he has a Triumph Tiger, I'm on the Tiger 900 Rally Pro in Khaki Green.

                @Steve-Lynch probably good to check if other apps (Google Maps/Apple Maps) show the same location. It's always possible for GPS-coordinates to be off a little bit, depending on signal reception.

                      Regarding the Tracking, I get it now.
                      On MyRoute-App Mobile the roads displayed are very thin compared to actual size of the road.

                      You donโ€™t stop riding when you get old, you get old when you stop riding.
