Map display car play

[Uwe Müller]

I think that the contrast of Car Play could be improved.

Greetings Uwe

@Uwe-Müller feel free to share a screenshot / elaborate a bit

@Uwe-Müller, Isn't it so that you change contrast and brichtness at your carplay unit?

[Jörgen]

Adjusting contrast and brightness in CarPlay makes the screen even worse and thus does not help.
The display quality for CarPlay is much worse than for smartphones (OLED).

The used color and brightness difference between street and landscape is too small. The dark gray is too little different from the light gray or blue.
So some other colors could help.

The cause of this isn't CarPlay, but the screen in your car. Most manufacturers don't put nice high resolution displays in their cars.

@Herko-ter-Horst A Zenec Naviciever is installed in one of my vehicles. The quality of the screen is good. Nevertheless, the contrasts could be better

Unfortunately at the moment MRA crashes immediately so I can't take a screenshot.
As soon as the app opens and I try to enter a destination, it crashes.

[Herko ter Horst]

@Uwe-Müller Does the unit itself have any options to adjust contrast?

[Uwe Müller]

@Herko-ter-Horst YES

[Herko ter Horst]

@Uwe-Müller Maybe adjusting that will help? I do agree that the app in general has a very muted colour scheme, which contributes to things on screen mushing together on low-res, low contrast displays.

You are not using the correct app, try using the beta MRA Navigation app that works from within the MRA Mobile app.

@Nick-Carthew i don‘t find a beta in the store

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Uwe-Müller see this sign up form: https://forum.myrouteapp.com/topic/2806/sign-up-for-the-beta and other instructions listed here: https://forum.myrouteapp.com/category/19/beta-mra-navigation-next

You need to fill in some stuff and then you get access to the Beta

[Uwe Müller]

@Corjan-Meijerink Thank you. I thought I had halutinations

@Corjan-Meijerink
Sorry, now I got a confirmation for the beta test, but unfortunately I still don't know where to find the download.

@Uwe-Müller you’ll get an invitation later. I need to process all registrations manually. I usually do this on Wednesday / Thursday. When I’ve done so, you will receive an email from us with further instructions

[Uwe Müller]

@Corjan-Meijerink Now I have received the invitation, but no mail from Testflight. Has it disappeared, or is it normal that it arrives so much later?

My unit will not display, basically white screen. The fix is to unplug, turn on my MyRoute-app on phone and reconnect.
