New Beta! (v3.2.9)

@Corjan-Meijerink
Awesome can’t wait to test this.

[Con Hennekens]

Ja hoor!

If I may already:
I like the new menu, and the waypoint list also!
In portrait mode, on my phone, the these "pages" cover only about 2/5th of the screen. There is a slider that can, as it seems, only be used to close the page. Perhaps it is possible also to make the page higher? (and make that stick for the next menu-visit). That way we don't need to scroll down the menu list. Also there is no indication visible that the list is scrollable. People might miss the lower options.

@Con-Hennekens Thanks for the feedback! Happy you enjoy the general layout improvement

@Corjan-Meijerink oooohhh, dayum, I really like the waypoint menu entry, and the possibility to select a waypoint to start from, from the same wp list. Great thinking and a significant usability improvement.

In general I appreciate the menu upgrade! Suits me alot better... Although, just like @Con-Hennekens I would like the menu to be shown "full screen" instead of 1/3 to 1/4 up.

[Corjan Meijerink]

@StefanHummelink Nice to read your enthusiasm!
We’ll definitely further improve on this!

Enjoyed the YT Bluetooth Keyboard video.
Very interesting.
Seems far safer than touching/looking at a screen which takes your eyes off the road.
I'll definately be looking into that.
Thanks also for creating an english version of the Video.

The map download is great but ... can I specify to have the maps loaded to my SD card? I don't have much room on the internal storage.

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Doug-Robinson selecting external storage is something we wish to add!

@Corjan-Meijerink In portrait mode I would agree with the full screen menu but keep the size of the menu the same in landscape view please. Perfect for left hand operation and I love the swipe down to close. Would like the ability to change the order of the menu though

@Dave-J-0 said in New Beta! (v3.2.9):

Would like the ability to change the order of the menu though

That's a less good idea concerning multilingual assistance though.

Great update!

I was just about to write a 3.2.8 review when I saw the new update.

Basically, everything was smooth with 3.2.8, excepting the crashes.

For me, less 3 things, is perfect as it is.

The 3 things I would love to have are:

1. Guiding in my own language (Romanian)
2. Fixed routing (or no routing between shaping points - like track navigation) as an option
3. ETA to the first VIA point (if I am not mistaken, for now you can toggle between ETA to first shaping point, or ETA to the end)

One short explanation why I would love track navigation for routes as well: when I make a route I spend a lot of time verifying it with navigation. Even if I place a lot of shaping points, navigation sometimes has a different opinion about routing, because the algorithm searches for the fastest route, while when designing it, I did it more curved.

But even without these 3 things, it still is the best motocycle app in the world!

Thank you!

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Vlad-Popovici-0 We hope the crash frequency is reduced in 3.2.9 but we are not sure about that. Looking forward to your feedback on this matter!

Considering your 3 feedback points:

1. Has been noted and will be addressed before release.
2. Will be considered! See my elaboration below.
3. This should be possible already. By tapping the ETA widget you cycle between end / upcoming shaping / upcoming via.

You can use track navigation for routes by exporting it as GPX and importing that file as route-track. This route-track can then be navigated with the app as track navigation. Yes, this is very tedious and we will check the possibility to implement track navigation for routes too.

Cheers!

@Corjan-Meijerink I will check the ETA to via point, it seems I missed it.

I did that, exported to route-track, but I missed too much the route only features (like different points colour, or icons, or via points), so I stopped using it like that. Would be AWESOME if you consider implementing track navigation for routes too.

Best regards!

[Vlad Popovici 0]

@Corjan-Meijerink Just checked, indeed one of the toggles shows the ETA to the via. AWESOME!

So only 2 things to perfection

Also I love the new menu.

One little thing: when I start the tracklog, in the normal app, a notification says "Recording". In Next, there is no notification. I know the orange trail is the best indication, but an instant notification that you toggled it would be welcomed.

if you want to close the menu you have to move the slider down. However, if you want to close the information box shown after clicking on a waypoint, you can also click somewhere on the map above the information box. I like this very much and wondering whether this can also be implemented for closing the menu.

With the latest version, I noticed, much less voice commands.
Much less than before, however, a little too less for my feeling. Ok, I know that everyone feels differently, and it is difficult to find the right way.
