    Hello,

    may I kindly ask if I am allowed to make a request for a feature, please?

    When my iPhone is connected to my car via Bluetooth all sound is routed to my car, but I can't hear the app sound. It looks like only when the phone-, podcast-, music app or Siri gets activated, the sound of the radio is muted and the sound output of my iPhone (only those apps are played via the car sound system), then I can speak to my iPhone via my car's microphone and hear the counterpart via the sound system of the car too.

    I don't know if there is a setting that I can make for any other app, to not use Bluetooth and line out to the build in iPhone speakers? However, Google Maps has a feature to not use Bluetooth speakers for sound. I wish MyRoute-app would also have such a feature. Otherwise, I do not hear any sound of the route adviser unless I disconnect my iPhone from my car's entertainment system, which is bad for taking a phone call.

    Many thanks for consideration.

    Cheers

      That is what the "Suggestions" category is for 😉

      I like your suggestion. Indeed in GMaps you can force sound through the phone speakers, and also Flitsmeister has such a feature. Especially in Flitsmeister it is useful, because a warning from a different position draws extra attention.

      EDIT:
      In the car that is. On a bike that has no real value of course 😉

      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.

        hard to understand your explanation, but perhaps to help you.

        Hello Peter,

        it might be hard for you to understand, because you can use Apple CarPlay, which I don't have 😉

        My phone connects directly to my car's hands-free system, which is not CarPlay. I think with CarPlay the sound is routed via CarPlay so you do not have any issues.

        But as you can see @Con-Hennekens seems to have the same and knows what I am talking about.

        Again, it's all about sound output and the display for my navigation is my iPhone display 🙂
        Anyways many thanks for chiming in and have a great vacation!

        Cheers

          @Peter-Schiefer

          Peter, I am not talking about music at all, it's just that when you use media with the iPhone the sound comes thru and can be heard, just like with the Podcast app it's just an example, the sound of the MyRoute Next Navi app is not coming thru for any reason, as said. other apps do have an extra setting to not route the sound via Bluetooth, which is what my request is. 🙂

            As said my request is for car navigation and of course it should be an optional (setting) feature 🙂

              How are these requests handled? Do we get a reply or feedback by the product developers?

              BTW: I am the "former user", I needed to make some changes to my profile which required a new account as the change was not possible.

              Mit freundlichen Gruessen / Met vriendelijke groet / Best regards
