Suggestion: Prompt to update downloaded maps.

[Paul Steinberg]

I was stranded on a recent multi-day trip. When went outside cell range, stopped for a photo (turned off the bike+Chigee) then got back on the bike, MRA (v 4.4.1-410 Android Auto) would no longer restart navigation. I tried clicking search (magnifying glass)->routes-><loaded my route> but it would not start again.

I did have the regional maps downloaded and I had 'use offline maps' turned on without success.

When I got the the hotel at the end of day I double checked the downloaded maps and discovered that they needed to be updated due to an MRA update. Once I updated the downloaded regions it seems to have fixed the problem.

Android OS auto updates all apps on my Pixel 10 Pro at night so I didn't notice MRA had been updated. Could you add a prompt in MRA to warn if the downloaded regions and the MRA versions are out of sync (or auto download when on wifi)?

Thanks in advance!

I don't feel comfortable on long journeys either. Of course, I prepare everything in advance – including downloading relevant offline maps.

But how am I supposed to know if updates are available for some maps during the trip?

See screenshot: it shows that an update is available. But when you tap on it, a complete download starts! I don't want that when I'm abroad (possibly using mobile data)!
It would be enough to just update the necessary map. But how am I supposed to know if this is the one that needs to be updated is in the update bunch?

An icon for this would be really helpful!

@Guzzist if you miss an update that's not that important. Typically it would mean that a couple of small changes in the map Are not implemented. No big deal, MRA will keep on working like expected
