How do I skip waypoints on the Nav App - Using Chigee Aio-5 BMW and Android phone
-
I have just returned from a 3 day tour around East Anglia using My Route App on my Android phone and Chigee Aio-5 for BMW. Two problems I found both related to skipping way points.
First the 3/4 circles (button) on the right of the screen a dark in colour and I cannot distinguish what each one does.
Secondly I couldn't delete waypoints as pressing any part of the screen or these buttons seemed to do nothing. Sadly, in the end, I had to abandon the MRA and revert back to google maps to get me to the hotel.All in all this was a very disappointing first experience of the MRA and in my opinion it is not a patch on Google maps in presentation and user experience.
Perhaps it is user error and if it is I would very much like to learn how to use this app correctly as I love to design the routes on the MyRoute App platform but have been let down, in my opinion, but he app itself.
Regards
Peter

@Peter-Gordon-Whitmore, the dark buttons are a know problem and is already being worked on. I am not sure if it is know why this happens, as for most users there seems to be no problem. For the rest it would be good to take a look at the support page about Android Auto. You know that MRA is not here to create a gMaps clone? It has a fully different set of competencies targeted at scenic navigation of pre-planned routes.
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.

@Con-Hennekens Thank you for your reply. I will indeed take at look at your suggested page. Whilst I appreciate the various attributes of MRA and sing its praises whenever I get a chance, it is disappointing when using it in 'anger' so to speak, it lets you down on such a vital and extremely important feature as waypoint skipping, because anyone who has ever used a sat nav app will at some point want to skip a waypoint. I look forward to an update to the app as I really want to use it for all my journeys.

@Peter-Gordon-Whitmore, skipping a waypoint is button 7 on the page I linked to.
