Hey Next Team,
@Corjan-Meijerink : Hey Corjan,
die App ist mit den neuen Infos zur Tanke beim fahren super gut, auch mit der etwas größer Anzeige, sowie auch die gesamte Überarbeitung an den vielen Kleinigkeiten ist super geworden.Die Anwendung im Alltag läuft jetzt sehr gut
️Das mit der Neigung der Karte muss ich mir noch mal in Ruhe ansehen auch beim fahren um den Unterschied zu sehen.
Für Biker die gerne planen und dann gut fahren wollen ist diese MyRoute-App mehr als ein Gewinn.
- Ich teile diese Meinung sehr gerne auch an vielen anderen Stellen wie Foren und auf Biker Treffs
Ja herzlichen Dank für die intensive Aufbereitung der vielen Anregungen in der App.
Frage: Wann dürfen die normalen User denn ein Update erwarten, einige Freunde fragen schon
VG Hubert aus dem schönen Münsterland .
@Hubert-Thoring happy to hear that!
We’re expecting to release this update to the public end of next week

Used the latest MRA version last week on a motorbike tour with an older Android OnePlus 6T and today on a camper tour with an older Samsung tablet and I’m very happy with the results. Both worked without any problem. Did not test the combination IPhone-CarPlay because I still don’t have much trust in the stability and don’t wanna have problems or be frustrated during driving. I’m sure this will be ok in future.

@Corjan-Meijerink A couple of cheeky suggestions if I may. Now we can add multiple new stops to the route, can the same icon for petrol, food etc that is added on the map be also added to the waypoint list?
Easy with a simple list shown above to see/remember but seeing the icons would make quick looks of a long list easier, particularly as I can not edit the text of these additions. I may also want to place these stops further down the route and not at the next stop.
This icon addition would also be useful for pre-planned stops in the route as well as this 'Add stop' feature.
Can my 'Favourites' be added to the search list too in addition to the POI categories?
Great work on this 'Add stop' new feature. Works a treat from my initial testing.
@Dave-J-0 Both your suggestions will be implemented before final release

Ladies and gentlemen! We are back
A month after our last Beta update, it's time for a new one.
Yes, it has been a slightly longer wait than we anticipated but it's gonna be a nice one! Delay was caused due to some development issues / obstacles, illness and vacation.The 4.0.5 beta will become available later this week - before the weekend.
This update does however contain so much new features and improvements that by time you are halfway reading this post, you've already forgotten the time you had to wait
CarPlay & Android Auto improvements
As promised, we would keep working on the CP / AA module.
We've done that!We now show:
- Speedlimit
- Current speed
- Lane assistance
- Camera / Truck warnings
From CP / AA you can now also:
- Change route avoid options
- Search for stops along your route
- Skip waypoints
Amazing right?
With this update we believe that CarPlay & Android Auto finally get the level it deserves.Nearby fuel stops
The app will actively suggest an efficient nearby fuel stop on your route - from MRA with
This is displayed instead of the next instruction and we've increased the size of this element 
Tapping the icon will add the fuel stop to your route, keeping your original route as intended. If you want to turn this off, you can do so from the functional settings.
Note: skipping extra stops, will not skip them but totally remove them from your route. Keeping your original waypoint count as planned.
Search for stop while navigating
Besides the nearby fuel suggestions, you can also search yourself!
Exactly the same search functionality as you are used to is available while navigating. Simply open the menu and search for a stop
As with nearby fuel stops, the search results are added efficiently along your route.
Note: skipping extra stops, will not skip them but totally remove them from your route. Keeping your original waypoint count as planned.
Custom tilt level
Do you prefer more horizon? Of less?
A discussion of the past! You can now choose your own tilt level from the map configuration settings.
Fixed issues
- Motorhome not allowed to use highway when avoiding toll
- Better position accuracy on (older, mostly Android) devices
- Logic to when detailed lane assist should kick in
- CarPlay showing multiple position indicators after switching between apps
- CarPlay iconsize next maneuver very small
- GPX files not opening with the app
- Incorrect distances shown to the next maneuver
- General stability improvements
Minor features
- CP / AA: Now includes translations, respecting your language preference
- New icons for speed warnings
- Increased size of next maneuver widget
- Preparation for Carpe Iter support (only available to their development team)
- Navigations can be resumed using BT controllers / input devices
- Previous camera tracking mode is respected when refocussing the camera (in short: compass tap behavior )
- Newest HERE SDK (4.15.5)
Known issues in this Beta
- Offline maps update might not be available (contacted HERE)
- Battery usage (ongoing issue with HERE)
- Roundabouts sometimes show incorrect exit direction
- Other common minor issues shared in the past weeks / month
We are looking forward to all your feedback!
Thanks so much for your continuing participation in the Beta program.
Cheers,
Corjan@Corjan-Meijerink did a test with Android auto Saturday
The lane assist wasn't visible on the Android auto. It did work on the phone
The lane assist came in to late. About 500 meters before the junction Witch is in most cases in the Netherlands already past the beginning of the exit lane. Maybe it could be a bit earlier
I didn't notice any indication of gas stations on the route thoug I passed severalHonda Goldwing GL1500,

About the gas stations, did you enable that in functional settings?

Lane information should have been displayed in Android Auto!

The next fuel station seems very good but it is sometimes replaced by the next turn sign. I tried to catch the rule but I couldn't. In my opinion next turn could be shown let's say 500 meters before the nearest turn. Fuel station is more important to me. Would be possible to show it permanently below the next turn icon? It would be perfect to have an info about two nearest stations, even instead of the icon.

@Stanisław Thanks for the feedback!
The fuel station is shown when:
- Next maneuver is more than 7500 meters aways
- OR: fuel station is within 1500 meters

So a fuel station that happens to be on the same junction that you're about to turn right on 200m away, for example, wins over the junction instruction?
i.e. get directed into fuel station, fill up, and next instruction is - immediately turn right.
(I'm not suggesting its bad logic or anything - just checking I understand correctly
). -

).@richtea999 yes, that's correct!
If you are however approaching the fuel station (when added), we won't suggest any other fuel stations (only after passing the one added). This means that you will then see the next instruction again.

@Corjan-Meijerink all the concern about fuel stops seems a little strange to me. I always plan fuel stops as part of my route planning... based on the fuel needs of those traveling with me. Still, feature seems to be very useful to a lot of people. I just wish the POI information in HERE was more accurate. Great progress on the app.

@Doug-Robinson thanks!
That’s exactly why this feature can be turned offOn my Tiger I have nearly 500km range when driving without thinking about saving fuel
Let’s just say I don’t ever need a random fuel stop. If I know I’m on a long drive I plan the fuel stop ahead, just like you. -

I plan a stop ad hoc, especially on a higway, by looking at the nearest station or the next one - the decision is made on the fly, without stopping, that's why the info about two nearest stations could be useful. Anyway thanks for the modification, it is of for sure a step in the good direction -

Really, how much fuel do you have on board?
It is not difficult, it is easy, it's a hobby

@Drabslab 30 liter.
I do 4.5l / 100km on cruise control @ 100 kph.
That's not however my average driving styleBut let's say that 450km is a very safe distance for me to ride without planning a fuel stop!

blimy, my KTM needs 5.6 liters per 100km with my average driving style. With a full tank, the dashboard claims that I can do 390km but that never happens

Impressive results in these new releases!
Congratulations!!Can you please share a bit more on the battery issue on Android? I do know you're working on this with Here, but in the last months every beta release I was hoping for a fix, bit everytime I read the same: next - investigating battery issues with Here ...
A navigation app with battery issues is really not handy.. I keep needing to use Waze as a backup for the longer rides.
hope a fix is close by. Can you share your thoughts on this?Since January 2024 I started recording some of my rides commuting and touring the R1200RT in The Netherlands:
