<![CDATA[Reading out the name of the waypoint and associated notes]]>It is a great feature that you can actualy audibly hear the name of the waypoint and teh associated notes!!! Super!

BUT.... it gets really annoying when it reads EVERY shaping point, of which you can have many.
One can opt for announcing the VIA points only, but for various reasons one may not wish to make a waypoint to be a VIA, but rather keep it a shaping point.

If there was a way to only read out the waypoints (VIA and Shaping) that have notes, I think it would be awesome!
Since the announcement comes about 1/2 mile from the waypoint location it is a very cool way to be ready for a view of an attraction, announce it to the group you are leading, etc,...

I really would love to use that function all the time on scenic solo and group rides that I lead many of.

Is there a way to do so that I am not thinking of?

Thank you foir your thoughts!

Either you want to see an attraction make notes and have it announced. Or you don’t. I too lead groups and often plan routes with optional loops since if you are riding with 5 six 7 riders time slips by. I occasionally skip via points to save time otherwise they are announced. Shaping points are unannounced and will be automatically skipped if the route is changed by any type of diversion. Pretty simple really.

I want to be free to ride and watch the road, not touching the screen if I can help it.
But in any event, why would I want the announcement that I've arrived at the shaping point that is nothing more than a shaping point and carries no significance otherwise...
I can also see that I've arrived to it.
The name and the Notes are the driving force to even consider using this great option.
So, let's make it usable without forcing all the irrelevant info upon the user.

but indeed the shaping points would still be announced ("upcoming", "reached").
there is as far as I know currently no way to omit these.
