Dit gaat over het plannen van een route, dat je aan een pijltje op de routelijn ziet welke kant de route opgaat, is inderdaad handig als je niet helemaal uit hoeft te zoomen om dit te bekijken, zodat je ingezoomd het via- of vormingspunt op de juiste plaats kunt positioneren.

@Corjan-Meijerink thank you very much, I will grant this permission.

@Corjan-Meijerink ...I can understand your point of view. But I feel, my question belongs to "main function". During a ride, I often want to stop navigation and restart (may with other Waypoit as starting point). It's a bit nasty with the double confirmation for stop the navigation. But if I could reach both confirmations by remote controller, I can live with. The other question seams for me also simple: if there is still a breadcrumb navigation on the top (which is reachable by remote controller), then there is only one level missing; that's all. My personal feeling: sometimes, it's not possible to stop the bike immediately to operate the navi device. So, most people do it while riding. But since I use a remote controller - I still do only the really needed operations on navi - but I feel much much more secure by this. As I often tell: it's the biggest game changer I experienced ever...

@Corjan-Meijerink said in Unable to stop navigation: @Guzzist you have a specific Android setting enabled which causes this. ...hmmm - I'm not aware, I did some specific Android settings. I wonder about same effect at different Android versions. On the DMD device (my navigation device), I set text font a bit greater. On the Tablet (my planning device), the text font is at standard.

...hmmm understood - but... Unfortunatelly I only remember slightly about this function. There is a option in the GPS-Settings of DMD2 app, which asks for. Long time ago, I have switched this option "off" because if I'm just using the DMD2 app (so, I'm inside the app) it seems pointless to me, to open then another app. If this would be my intention, I could open the other app directly upfront...

@Corjan-Meijerink: did you read my Post about my tests? Did not get any reply from you.

...the second option (use a fully featured, robust device) was a massive game changer for me. Garmin disappointed me more and more on my long distance journeys. At an exhibition, I could test the devices from manufacturer DMD; really amazing stuff That are based on Android and have an own App with own maps - and you can run parallel also MyRoute-App. Together with an remote controller on the handlebar (connected by cable or Bluetooth) it's such a great solution - you will ask yourself, why you drove all the years before, without such a solution. May you will consider that too...

In de afbeelding zie je dus 3 route/tracklijnen naast elkaar lopen. De GPS positie op je scherm (dat pijltje) en je echte GPS positie zijn lang niet altijd identiek. Kan het niet zo zijn dat MRA "verspringt' naar naar een van de andere wegen die parallel aan elkaar liggen. En op dit manier de route/track dus gewoon vanaf een ander punt weer verder vervolgd? Zelf heb ik gemerkt dat MRA hier minder goed mee overweg kan dan andere navigatie apps.

@Albert-van-den-Elsen klinkt verder prima. Over die versie zou ik me vooral geen zorgen maken.

@Aiello-antonino thanks for link. it can be usefull for me.

still one question. all is only online. i use a offline phone and tablet for navigation and i have always a backup phone also without sim. i do understand it correct that switching between is only online. not on all places where i stay has internet by wifi or 4g on my real phone. if i would have to switch i need to find internet to switch to other to make it active.

@Guzzist to make it visual: [image: 1771025310146-schermafbeelding-2026-02-14-002634.jpg]

@Albert-Renting, daarom kun je één van die twee toestellen afmelden als je het derde toestel gebruikt.

I have found KML and KMZ file to be not solid for import before. I always go with GPX. If you cannot get a GPX, you can convert your KML here: https://mygeodata.cloud/converter/kml-to-gpx

Mercikes

@Adrian-Avram in Dutch we have a saying: why reinvent the wheel. Why not accept the "help" of others, they found out where the nicest roads are. I received an e-mail last year from someone who road my routes from Zaragoza until the end, roughly four days. They also booked the same hotels. They were very thrilled how great the routes are. And that is only one example.

@Aiello-antonino Glad to hear that. Enjoy!

@Daniel-Buvens You could consider just downloading the European countries or regions that you need.

Ok, I am just curious

No, the only way, to prevent being sent back is to manually skip the waypoint. If you do not do that, it will skip it automatically after a few recalculations.
