    Vinnie.

    Try running another GPS app in the background.

    I was advised to do this and I found that it did reduce the vehicle icon lag considerably.

    If you want to give it a try, I use Speedometer by Simple Design Ltd. It's free to use with minimal ads and it did the trick for me.

    Hi Dungbeetle, a 2nd GPS app in the background reduces the lag BUT does not remoeve it completely. My position arrow remains constantly 30 - 40 meters behind the actual position also when I have other GPS apps running in the background - that is quite annoying

      Hmm, not that bad for me.

      It was only that bad before I ran another app in the background.

      I can only suggest trying the app I mentioned above, just in case it does a better job.

          I used the app for a three-day trip I planned, totaling 1490 kilometers. While there is no better program with so many features that we all know both in route planning online and during navigation, it's really annoying how much it delays showing your actual position. Overall, the app has stability issues. The developers seriously need to address these two problems first before anything else.
          Otherwise, I think I won't be alone in canceling my subscription. I use two other programs, OsmAnd+ and MapFactor Navigator, and they work perfectly regarding the aforementioned two problems.

            Dear Georgios, please read this thread: https://forum.myrouteapp.com/topic/6677/position-delay-lag-quick-fix-which-app-works-which-do-not/18

            Have you already tried running another gps app simultaneously with the MRA app? For me running Flitsmeister or Waze in tandem with MRA, almost completely solve the delay.

            Please also post your phone data in that thread. Thank you.

              "I tried it today and it almost solved the problem, but why should all this be necessary, and just not work perfectly and smoothly? The enemy of good is the best."
              My mobile phone is the Ulefone Armor X12 Pro, and I didn't have any issues with any GPS program, and I've tried almost all of them.

                why should all this be necessary, and just not work perfectly and smoothly

                Who said that this should be necessary and that this issue is accepted? It is not!
                On the contrary, this issue is on priority 2 of the issues the Dev's are in contact with HERE about. Priority 1 is the battery issue... So these two are at the utmost priority of the MRA dev team, but the root cause of both these issues lie with HERE(!), the SDK and map provider.

                Running another GPS app in tandem with MRA is only a temporary fix for a issue that shall be solved in the near future, it just depends on the pace at which HERE is finding out how to solve it, until then, a temporary fix is applicable.

                *PS I urge you to read back on the forum history from the moment on the BETA project started;) Many of these persistent bugs were already identified from the getgo.

                          @Stefan-Hummelink Ik had het gisteren ook met mijn "Fietsroute app". De GPS was erg traag en week veel af. Ik durf het haast niet te zeggen, maar zou het misschien ook kunnen zijn dat bij het bereiken van de maximale data van je abbo, deze functionaliteit "op een laag pitje" draait?. Ik was gisteren nl door mijn max data heen waardoor ik deze ingeving had.
