Yesterday I rode my first real route with MRA and I noticed I was annoyed by the amount of voice guidance messages. MRA just doesn't shut up
(My Garmin is the same, BTW). Just after making a turn, I don't want to hear when the next turn is going to be ("Next waypoint in 2,6 kilometers"). I prefer to have voice guidance just prior to having to make a turn. The rest I can see in the screen. So maybe add a few settings to get less messages? (See my item about calling off waypoints in the Bugs section: I don't understand how it works and think it does not work as I expect it to do, so I still get waypoints called of that are in my opinion shaping points) -

This would be rather complex as on different type of roads, you might want instructions earlier / later. We use the default HERE configuration right now and so far (ignoring existing / mentioned issues) people seem to like it.
Another user did just share the idea to simply play a short sound (beep) to indicate an instruction rather than the full text: https://forum.myrouteapp.com/topic/3245/spraak-instructies
I'll put this on the list and see what we can do with it.
