MRA Community Forum

@luc-1a The built in route planner in the mobile app uses the offline HERE map. Cycling routes have to be created using the OpenStreetMap, this is why Bicycle and By foot are not an option for transport mode. To create a new cycling route, use Route lab and the website route planner.

@Paul-Smith-3 I just logged in to this forum for the first time in almost a year, and I actually laughed when I read through this thread. Just search for posts with my username and you'll see that I was very much in the same boat that you are now last year. Obviously nothing has changed. While doing a three week trip in the spring of 2025 in totally unfamiliar areas, and after spending MANY hours meticulously planning the trip in the online MRA route planner in advance, I experienced numerous MRA navigation issues that I documented to the forum that I took the time to do while on the trip. Not imagined issues.... documented oneswith screenshots and detailed explanations. When I tried to discuss and understand how to work around these real issues here on the forum, I got the same type of useless responses that you just got from some of the "experienced" contributors. They seemingly didn't really read and/or understand what I was explaining, or they were purposely choosing to ignore it. It was very, very frustrating. My perception was (and still is) that here on the forum it wasn't / isn't acceptable to post MRA issues or constructive criticism. If you did post an issue then it was assumed that you were either an idiot that couldn't read or comprehend the manual or MRA, or that you were just a complainer. I'm neither. I finally gave up trying to get useful answers from this forum and used my backup Garmin XT using the .gpx files generated by MRA's route planner to finish the trip without surprises or issues. I have lifetime subscriptions for all of the MRA products as I do believe in them. I'm very technically inclined and I am very familiar with most of the navigation apps and devices, their advantages and their weaknesses (MRA, Basecamp, Kurviger, multiple Garmin devices, Apple Carplay, DMD) etc. I, like you, do read the manual thoroughly (which in MRA's case understandably does change constantly and isn't always current). I also personally take offense when someone lazily posts "RTFM" instead of taking the time to read and totally comprehend what I've taken the time to write and offer succinct advice on how to solve my issue. IMO, this users' forum could, and would be MUCH more useful if the seasoned participants would be much less defensive about MRA's shortcomings, and offer direct, to-the-point help instead of condescending bulls***. In 1996 (pre-Internet boom by a long shot) I started a technology businesses from the ground up culminating with over 30,000 subscription customers with an SAS business model and exiting with a sale to a global technology company. I'm not a technology rookie. There's one thing that I learned very early on in my journey.... you can't fix a problem unless you 1) understand it and 2) admit that it's a problem. Ignoring a problem doesn't fix it..... ever! Here's my recommendation..... If you, as experienced MRA users, wish to help MRA succeed, when a valid issue is raised on the forum your response should be "yes, we recognize that's a problem or limitation, and until it's resolved here's what we do to work around it." I appreciate and respect that type of honest, intelligent and helpful response! I'm quite sure that others feel the same way! Experienced MRA forum members that respond to forum posts regarding MRA problems or limitations with totally unhelpful and condescending replies, IMO, are ultimately being detrimental to the future success of MRA, and I'm sure that's not anyone's true intent! MRA's developers, the program itself, and the MRA users overall are absolutely great. I would not take the time to write this if I didn't believe completely in the people and the product. That said.... I have no doubt that I'm going to get blasted (again), but that's ok. Life goes on!

How about a compromise? Ask the developers to add an option in settings to specify on a given route how close to waypoint is close enough to move on. The figure is already hard-coded in the navigation software at somewhere around 25 meters, but I suggest making it dynamic. Even 25 meters can be too much in a medieval city center and 500 meters is more than enough on rural back roads.

Speedcam databases from third parties cost extra again, I think...

Maar rob je hebt me wel op t spoor gezet. ik heb de instelling vd muis cursor aangepast, die stond idd op wit en is nu zwart.

@Jörgen said in Add option for output audio as HFP instead of A2DP: However, when I establish a Bluetooth connection with my passengers, I no longer receive navigation instructions. You mean Intercom with passengers? Did you enabled Multitasking Audio via Sena app? You need to do it, as its disabled per default.

This is not possible. You need to scroll through and select the "+" or "-" button. I tend to leave it on the selection screen so it is easy to zoom in or out

@Aiello-antonino All good

Thanks for the replies. I may have confused it with Sygic, which does provide alerts even when you’re not following a route. Would it be possible to implement this option? Should I post it in the suggestions forum? Best regards.

Just like I already have shown, follow the steps in the screenshots above. At the moment it's as far as I know, the only way!

I also would feel much safer, being able to backup all my routes in GPX format, just incase something happens. There is a large number of routes in MRA, a lot of work, and it would be devastating to lose it all, if a crisis occurred. There are too many to do 10 at a time, so in your major update work, could you consider it. (maybe a zip style backup, preserving the directories would be a good solution).... Thanks Guys for such a good product!!

@Rob-van-den-Boomen Welke opties er nog in de pijplijn zitten voor CarPlay en AndroidAuto weet ik niet, maar je kunt zeker wel de snelwegen, hoofdwegen en steden negeren. Je moet die alleen in de vermijdingsopties nog even van groen naar rood zetten... [image: 1775314572881-img_3355.jpeg] [image: 1775314580733-img_3356.jpeg]

Hi, j'avais ce problème. En suivant vos conseils, cela est revenu normal. Merci beaucoup pour vos commentaires. GULL

Clearly a April's Fool. It looks nice though The screen is to sharp (high resolution). The Rider has a low resolution screen and because of that it is a kind of fuzzy/blurry screen. A dedicated MRA navigation device. I don't know if that is good idea. It will add a lot of work for the developers. Because the team is responsible for the device itself also.

Yes of course I can put notes in but if it is a quick visit to a city and there is one each day I don’t always want to do all that work. If I select via points then the app should let me see their names. As for whether it’s the best tool: actually Outdooractive is better for routing but they don’t show the waypoints at all - not even a dot on the path - so that’s even more useless for city walks!

@Herman-Veldhuizen, eens. Je krijgt altijd een herhaling van de laatste gesproken aanwijzing als je op het tegeltje links boven drukt. Maar aangezien bij het starten van een route er niks te herhalen valt, werkt dat in dit geval ook niet. "Route <naam van de route> gestart." lijkt me wel wat

@ConiKost said in MRA 5.0.4 (451) Menü Reihenfolge - Überlagerung - BT Controller: @Hubert-Thoring said in MRA 5.0.4 (451) Menü Reihenfolge - Überlagerung - BT Controller: Remotek One version V2.1 can do everything that V1.1.2 can do! It seems, that those missing menu functions, which where present in 1.1.2, where missing in 2.0.0, but re-added in 2.1.0 according to changelog. Yes that is so !!
