    It's so funny...
    Until the zumo XT literally ALL dedicated navigation units have been in landscape format. Yet when people switch to a phone some seem to think portrait is a better orientation. Even the portrait function of the XT has been market demanded from people who tried navigating on their phones first.

    The obviously wrong orientation of smartphone design also disturbed the photography industry, now people think shooting pictures in portrait is default. It's not, proved by the many pictures with too much street, too much sky and too little of what you wanted to take a picture of.

    Why? People have their eyes beside each other, not above each other...

    I am just an enthusiastic MRA user, and hope you will be one too!

    Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebar to the saddle.

      Thanks for the feedback in this post.

      I've made the image smaller in portrait mode. Yes, this makes the text slightly smaller and thus more difficult to read. It this does however ensure that more of the map remains visible 🙂

      Besides that:

      • attempt has been made to only show the signs that are relevant to your manoeuvre and not the "stay on the highway" images.
      • changed the internal configuration to only show the image when you are within a certain distance.

      Please let me know what you think!

                        Afgelopen week de app gebruikt in Frankrijk met de lane assist en warempel ik heb ook wat te mekkeren over de functie. Al rijdend op de autoweg geeft lane assist ook meldingen als je rechtdoor moet rijden op autowegen en daar vindt ik de melding overbodig.

                              @Corjan-Meijerink I like the new lane assist but I wonder if it is necessary to have the pop up for every junction. On an urban motorway, with lots of junctions, the lane assist screen is present for a high percentage of the time. During which time the information normally displayed at the top of the screen, ie distance to next turning, next waypoint/skip etc, is obscured. I found this quite disorientating. Perhaps lane assist only before the planned exit would be sufficient?

                                I like the new lane assist but I wonder if it is necessary to have the pop up for every junction.

                                  @Rob-Verhoeff Thanks for your reply, I will look out for the fix in the next update.

                                    Thanks for the feedback in this post.

                                    I've made the image smaller in portrait mode. Yes, this makes the text slightly smaller and thus more difficult to read. It this does however ensure that more of the map remains visible 🙂

                                    • attempt has been made to only show the signs that are relevant to your manoeuvre and not the "stay on the highway" images.
                                    • changed the internal configuration to only show the image when you are within a certain distance.

                                    Please let me know what you think!

                                    Thanks very much Corjan. This is much better!!!!
                                    Appreciate your action(s) now and in the past.

                                    For me that is a good reason to keep testing the App

                                      When is the next Beta version comming? Can't wait to test it.

                                      Hopefully, you also adjusted the moment the lane instructions come into view to a much later moment i.e. not 1.2 km or 900m but rather ±500m before the instruction has to be done.

                                        We were aiming for this week beta but I think it will be next week! Encountered some issues after updating internal dependencies.

                                          Hopefully it is before the weekend. Then I will tour with 30 motorcyclists and can then test the new beta 🙂
