@Daniel-7, It's not just promising, it's already available in the last public update

I have been an MRA user for a very long time, and back in the day, I purchased the Lifetime version for both components (the Web Planner and Navigation). Until now, however, I have only used the MRA Web Planner to plan my routes for my TomTom Rider 400. My intention was to use my ruggedized smartphone as an alternative device for MRA Navigation—something I recently put to the test. However, I found that the display showing the distance to the next turn instruction was simply too small on my smartphone screen. I can read this information without any trouble on my TomTom Rider 400, but not when using MRA Navigation on my phone. I have since noticed, though, that this information is displayed in a larger format when using Android Auto. To take advantage of that, however, I would need to acquire yet another new device (a Carpuride unit).

Here's one I mocked up 3 years ago exactly as you suggested:
https://forum.myrouteapp.com/topic/4307/suggestions-for-next-turn-box

Still looking foward to it!

I fully support the idea. The size of the text in the ETA box has also been up for discussion.
And yes I know this is a boring thing to do for developers. But it can help to make the app usable on different devices when done right.
more settings isnt a problem as long as they are easy to understand and sensibly grouped.

It is a shame that nothing has been done about this problem in the three years since your post. Apparently, listening to individual users and their issues is not a high enough priority for the myRoute development team.

@Corjan-Meijerink
It would be great if someone from the myRoute team could comment on this.

Oh, Corjan and the team definitely listen! I definitely wasn't complaining at the level of support - it's truly outstanding for the app world.

It's just that particular issue seems to have slipped through the net.

There is, of course, the possiblity that we're both wrong, and the rest of the world can easily read it on a shaking phone at 60/70mph.

And when the sun shines on the screen, it becomes even harder to see anything—even though my phone’s screen is already quite bright.
When using Calimoto, I didn’t have any trouble seeing the distance to the next turn.
I don’t think it would be a big deal to increase the font size for the distance to the next turn; after all, they’ve already released much more extensive updates.

Otherwise, I’m really happy with MRA.

Now that you mention it, yes... At that speed I can still read my screen just fine. Or does that have more to do with the souplesse of my bike and the vibrationdemper under my phone?

@rob-verhoeff I do think it’s related to the mount, because it works perfectly fine on my thumping twin-cylinder bike as well 🫨
