@Stephan-Dornberg said in Maps loading slow: I would love to see the maps that are in the DMD2 app available in MRA. Those are beautiful maps with a lot of helpful detail. The OSM in MRA is pretty plain by comparison. You're probably referring to DMD's "offroad" map with its nicely colour-graded tracks: [image: 1767367670214-tracks.jpg] It's an OSM map with a customised rendering theme; it's an approach used by many other apps on the market - no rocket science. According to recent posts, DMD will implement a feature that lets users create their own themes, configuring what to see, at which zoom level, and in which style. For both the web planner and the app - that's going really wild... However, if we can see all these tracks, we likely want to route them, and that's where things get tricky. DMD uses BRouter as a routing engine with highly customised routing profiles. I don't know if there are other options. More support for off-road routing has been requested many times; let's see what the MRA new web planner will offer. It's under development for about a year now, and expectations are high

@Makro To start with the easiest question: no, if you deselect a POI, it does not disappear from your own POI list. The options you are given—adding it as a POI and/or as a waypoint—allow you to choose whether to see both or just one of them. You can then place the created waypoint on the route line (for example, if the POI point is far away from the road) while leaving the original POI point in its original location. After placing the POIs in your route, you can deselect your own library. Only the POIs that have been placed in your route will then be visible. This is especially useful if your own list contains more than 2,000 POIs, as there is a limitation in the navigation app: it displays a maximum of 2,000.

@Stephan-Dornberg Let’s say you click the skip button for route point 10, the system will draw a straight line from 9 - 10 and effectively turn off navigation between those two points. Useful for bypassing a closed section of road or using a ferry.

Wouldn't it be neat if having found an exceptional* route blockage the app could display it in red, indicating to the user why the route is not as direct as expected. The user would be informed, rather than confused. Not sure if it's feasible, but it would certainly have helped me in the past! Example: [image: 1767303433170-combi.jpg] *closed road, serious jam, etc.

You van see at what time you arrive at the waypoint (when you have set a startingtime at the first). You can manipulate that time by adding a pause., to reach the desired time.

+1 same issue - every time I stop (at traffic lights, etc.) the map spins 180 degrees as if I'm facing the other way. Once I'm underway again it spins back and the navigation continues correctly. Samsung S24 Ultra, fully patched and up to date. No such issues with Google Maps or other nav programs.

@Richard-18 When it was first available, my mates thought that I was far more intellectual than I really am as I would be relaying to them all of the facts about the different places that we passed on our routes. They didn’t know that I was having it read to me and displayed on phone screen. It is a very useful tool that I use all of the time. I also find myself randomly answering quiz show questions with the knowledge that I have gained from looking up facts to put into route point notes.

The key combination CTRL-Z or CTRL-Y does the same!

@Adrian-Avram Back at you and to everyone else. Have a very happy, healthy and fun filled New Year 2026.

Please create a support ticket and share the logfile from the app as attachment in the ticket

@Corjan-Meijerink my goal here is to avoid touching the app while riding - which is the case with mainstream apps like googlemaps or waze. Appreciate they have bigger budgets and this might be technically difficult. Just pointing out the limitation. Thanks

@Corjan-Meijerink Hi, I'm sending you the log files by email. I can't open a ticket. [image: 1767115992102-error-ticket.jpg]

thank you - it was a friends route. I should have checked it

Dit komt waarschijnlijk omdat je twee routepunten (33 en 48) kort bij elkaar hebt liggen en de optie 'routepunt automatisch overslaan' aan hebt staan. Geen probleem. Zoom een beetje uit en houd je vinger even op punt 34. Je krijgt de melding 'Routepunt 34 & verdergaan vanaf :' met de positie van het routepunt. Deze melding hoef je dan alleen te bevestigen met ja. De route zal dan vanaf rp34 weer opgepakt worden.

@Kerry-Lebel ...your mentioned point "Mirador la Peña" serms a so called view point. You can use it by a click as route point if: on your screen left side, there is the list of waypoints - but you need to switch to list of POI (click on "Hamburger-Menue, right side of word "Waypoint" to select it) in the list of POI, you need to select the category "viewpoints" with a little luck, the "Mirador la Peña" is well known and an icon becomes visible in map (by zooming in!) you can click on this icon and select, if you want it entered as always visible POI - or/and as route point. Mostly the icon has the name as in the map shown (but you can override).

@Neil-Bartlett Thanks for the advice. After a crash of my ZUMO XT and a replacement by Garmin this possibility had gone. Now it's back again. Lucky me!

And you can easily test your audio by pressing the ️ button to the right of “Audio” on the screenshot of @Hubert-Thoring.

@Corjan-Meijerink Thank you...increasing that setting did the trick for me !

You need to report the map error directly to HERE, as MRA only uses HERE's base for navigation but cannot influence the content. Link Klick zu HERE
