Car Play new features request
-
Hello
Could you add the following features -
being able to open search for say petrol etc while on a route?
add the option of switching to offline mode from carplay screen
add a recent list to be able to choose a route without going down sub folders
add a way point list to the skip waypoint button, or even better be able to select a waypoint from the screen when you have zoomed out or used the whole route button.
Thanks -

Thanks@Alliston, beware...
being able to open search for say petrol etc while on a route?
There is a function that shows the closest gas station on your route. Besides that, there is an "Add waypoint" function in the 3-dot menu, which opens the search window.
add the option of switching to offline mode from carplay screen
There is not even such a function in the app, while navigating. Why would you want to have that in carplay?
add a recent list to be able to choose a route without going down sub folders
Just tap the magnifying glass, all your recents are in there, routes, single destinations, favorites, all of them
add a way point list to the skip waypoint button
That is WAY to dangerous, and since that tile is meant for being able to use while driving, that is not going to happen! There is however a waypoint list in the 3-dot menu, which you can use to skip to, with a long-press.
or even better be able to select a waypoint from the screen when you have zoomed out or used the whole route button
Zoom to anywhere you like on the map, and long-press any waypoint you wish to target. If you long-press the compass icon, you will zoom out to see the whole route if that helps.
You must be a very lucky man, seeing ALL of your desires already implemented in the app...
May I suggest looking at the support page? https://www.myrouteapp.com/support
The manual has just been update to match the new version 5 of the app.I am just an enthusiastic MRA user, and hope you will be one too!
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebar to the saddle.

@Alliston, That was an important omitted piece of information indeed
Some updates will definitely be done on the CP and AA GUIs, but you probably know that restrictions forced by Apple and Google concerning safety and distraction are in place.
