    In the Android app, I set the audio language to English.
    Afterwards I select a route or Favorite and start navigation.
    To my surprise, the app voice talking does not match the previously selected voice. In fact it's not even a native English speaker.

    I have repeated this with different English voices, but not once was the selected voice used for navigation.

    Best regards, Makro

        I have the same problem. Oneplus 12. Voice engine is Google.Android which is the only TTS engine Avaliable.

        I set mine to Australian English and it defaults back to British English which I don't mind but it isn't working correctly.

          I have two engines available, a Google and a Samsung. Switching between them does not solve it, so I don't think it's related to the speech engine.

          BTW, same result using my Samsung Active tab 3 and my Samsung Galaxy s24+.

            @Makro use the Google Android engine. Can you choose a deferent cvoice overthere?

              Yes I tried various voices with both the Google and the Samsung engine. All my efforts are ignored.

              Another bug is that the app writes in Dutch instead of English, but that's a minor issue, not related to the voice issue.

                @Makro I think you’ve done the wright steps. Maybe @Corjan-Meijerink can something smart about your problem

                    @Leike-Lodiers, I have been mentioning this before, also in our test group, but got no response. So I thought is was my phone's problem. I think the voice settings are not honored anymore since some versions, and the app defaults to the system voice. @Corjan-Meijerink?

                    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.
