MRA not getting to my home address?

Ron Z · 3 Jun 2024, 00:57

MRA Next is not finding my home address correctly on a route when I stored it as a Favorite. This is using MRA Next on my iPhone. Any ideas on what else I can try?

@Ron-Z What is the problem MRA NExt has with your home address? Wrong routing, does it not find the address at all?
I have done the same thing, like you did and stored a favourite for my home address. As a long term Garmin user it is named HOME
But the name doesn‘t matter st all.
If you go to my favourites and I select my HOME it immediately starts the calculation and I could, if I want to change the routing behaviour to curvy or anything else.

Greetings

@Ron-Z I can only reproduce this if my physical address is located very far from the road (your saved favorite) and there is no accessible road (according to the Here map) directly leading to my front door.

And what if you use the coordinates and then store those?

hi,

do you actually need to have it exactly marked?,
Personnaly, I do have an address near to my home, to use as favourite for when i require MRA to get me there from a particular point. this works for me perfectly.

After further investigation it appears the HERE data is incorrect for my location. The circled street area in red does not exist:

The above image is what MRA gave me when I set a route to my location while at my location. Taking a route up to 228th St that does not exist.

Here is the same image from a HERE map in Garmin BaseCamp:

The correct layout taken from a TomTom map is correct:

I've reported the map error to Garmin, so I'll see if it ever gets corrected.
But MRA does not attempt to come North up Marigold Ave when it should, instead the route takes me to my home address where it doesn't exist on another street. Weird...
