Two spoken languages
-
I experience a mix of spoken languages in the app.
In the app, I select a route and press the yellow Navigate button. After calculation the lady with the Danish voice says: After 700 meters turn left.
The 700 is spoken in Danish, the rest of the sentence in English.My app settings: Navigation settings -> Audio:
TTS Engine: com.samsung.SMT
Voice: Danish (Denmark) -
@Makro Danish is not a supported language in the app. The voice is completely separate from the app. You can select any voice supported by your phone.
So the app is providing text in English to the Text-To-Speech (TTS)-system of your phone, because it doesn't support Danish. However, you have selected a Danish voice. So you will get English words spoken in a Danish voice/accent. Numbers will be spoken in the language of the voice, because those are provided as numbers, not words (i.e. "700", not "seven hundred").

@Herko-ter-Horst I believe you, but I had never guessed that.
In the app, there is no indication that some of the listed/available languages are not supported.So, at least now I know, but others will probably stumble upon the same issue, so I suggest the UI gets a minor modification...

@Makro Sadly, unlike the Apple App Store, the Google Play Store does not list the languages supported by the app, so yeah, maybe MRA could add that list to the description of the app themselves, or show the list in some other place.
According to the Apple App Store entry for MyRoute-app, this is the list of languages supported by the app: English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Spanish.
