I have received more or less the same answers from the German and Dutch Garmin CS [image: 1789657736839-99fdc07b-b6ca-4fa4-bf40-9afa21bf347c-image.jpeg] [image: 1789657761582-a493d92d-6d56-4f3d-83b8-0fd4fdc21fc9-image.jpeg]

I agree with most of John's observations, but now I have become accustomed to planning routes on mobile devices and transferring them to the Zumo XT I own I don't want to go back to carrying a laptop around to transfer routes to the XT if I want to change routes or create new ones on the fly. The Zumo XT and Basecamp does two things for me that aren't achievable by any of the current software offerings from MRA, OSMand or DMD2. Proximity alerted custom POI's and in Basecamp certain types of track manipulation. I'm a fan of Garmin hardware but their software offerings for new devices are poor. Nothing they have produced matches the functionality of Basecamp. I was heading for an overnight trip on Sunday and discovered on Saturday that garmin has broken Drive for Zumo XT/Android users. I load my routes onto the Zumo XT as a backup. My return on Monday was looking wet and I didn't want to create a route home until I seen how wet the weather was as I like to use Minor roads. So my route created on MRA on Sunday morning could not be transferred to the XT. I navigated both way's using the built in AA screen on the Honda (Made by Garmin). After 20+ years using Garmin devices the XT will be my last. There is just too much good software out there which is easier to use.

@Carl-Lee said: I wanted to add this comment in case anyone is offering a solution that is XT2/3 only. I wish I had solid input to provide you, but I don't. For most of my time on the XT, I didn't use the Drive app. And in my time with the XT3, I have Traffic enabled in Tread, but I haven't run into any road closures. I understand (now) that road closures (as opposed to major traffic jams) trigger an automatic route recalculation. As users, we can't turn this behavior off. From my standpoint it's a terrible design, but Garmin views this as a feature, and not a bug. In any case, I found a great thread on the Zumo User Forums that gets into the guts of it: https://zumouserforums.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=17562&hilit=road+closure#p17562 There is a saying that "The best defense is a good offense". In my case, before leaving for a day of riding, I use Google Maps to do a complete scan of the area I'll be traveling for any closures. If you know up front, it's much easier to adjust than dealing with it in real-time. An added benefit is that Google will expose closures that Garmin Traffic Services (or HERE notifications in MRA) don't even know about. I've found out the hard way that Google is the gold standard other sources will never equal. Catch these things early, and life on the road will be happier.

To do ze choose the download button in the app and choose pdf Or on the web planner export to pdf

I did discover that after a while that's why why the screen shots show it. It can be a bit annoying to zoom into that level for the whole route to check. Thanks

Yes, I think the topic of map contrasts is also really important, but it is not taken up by the MRA team at the moment ... had already written something about it in the beta area. Here is the map example: MRA to G-Maps Same view of the forest road —-###— Ja ich finde das Thema Karten Kontraste auch wirklich wichtig, es wird allerdings im Moment vom MRA Team nicht aufgegriffen … hatte dazu auch schon was im Beta Bereich geschrieben. Hier das Karten Beispiel: MRA zu G-Maps Gleiche Sicht auf die Forststraße [image: 1789586531438-img_1641.jpeg] [image: 1789587339690-img_1646.png] [image: 1789587270922-img_1645.png] Even when zooming out, the forest road on the left remains much more visible. —-###—- Selbst beim raus Zoomen bleibt die Forststraße links viel besser sichtbar.

De grootte van de iconen zijn kaart elementen. Het in mijn verzoek om de interface elementen.

If you set navigation to start at route point 1 it will guide you to route point 1... Without repeating the complete manual, I can just hint you at longpressing the route punt you want to go to next, or if you are navigating (as) track, just longpress the route line a bit ahead from where you want to rejoin. Make sure you have offline maps available to prevent bad internet situations also.

@Marinus-van-Deudekom thanks for the hint - but never heart the word gearwheel before for the settings icon so it took a while to detect how toget to the waypoints. But now I think it's fine and a working workaround for this issue.

Offline navigeren kan minder precies zijn dan online. Daarom kan de blauwe lijn wat naast de weg komen te liggen

vandaag bij mij ook weer gebeurd na 200km ongeveer op mijn chigee 6 scherm het geval log bestand gestuurd

@superg Moet ik dadelijk een keer proberen met de routes die niet wilden lukken Had nu een andere route geprobeerd, maar ik gebruik eigenlijk nooit rare tekens in de naam van mijn route spaties wel tussen bijv de naam en D1 en de lengte van de route etc etc

Oh, ik zie dat de V4 ook via een update naar Android 13 is te upgraden. Daarmee draaien ze allemaal op Android 13. Op deze versie zou MRA gewoon goed moeten werken. Wat ik zelf altijd doe als ik veel vastlopers ervaar is de tijdstippen onthouden/noteren en de logfiles delen via een ticket.

@Peter-Zehentreiter Thanks a lot for the tip Peter

Garmin Drive works perfectly for me when it comes to tracks and routes, now that I’ve replaced the latest version, v4.29.25, with the older v4.28.14.

So it seems after lots of mails back and forth that the problem came from a messy update policy at Carpuride. First they had OTA updates, which they then switched off themselves without notifying anyone. Then you had to download updates, but only for PC and on a flash drive. In my audiovisual profession no one has PC's, so there you go. After complaining, they suddenly turned OTA on and I could update the device. By then I had finally found someone with a PC, so I could also do the firmware update with the SD-card. Now everything is updated and for the moment works fine! Welcome to the 21st century...

It is possible to use more than two devices; please contact support, and they will provide a proposal.
