<![CDATA[Map definition/ clarity]]>I use a Zumo XT on the bike and MRA Next in the motorhome. Most of my route planning is done on the web site as a22" monitor makes life easier.

My problem is that MRA Next maps on Android have much poorer definition than the Zumo XT.

Am I missing something as no matter which map I use they are never as good to my eyes.

@tonyS I use the same combo... yes the maps don't look like Garmin and never will, because that depends on what "Here" gives us.

...also Garmin-XT isn't perfect: the used colours are'nt contrasty enough. I don't understand why every manufacturer uses such pastell colours. Thank God, Garmin uses a simple text file, to define the colours for streets, forests, cities etc. So it's really easy to change used colours to your own preferences. Also to get more contrast 😎

Would be nice, if MyRoute-App next would also use such a extra text file to (re)define the map colours... 😳

Of this is the case its made it harder to catch a quick glance!!!

You can play with the Options in teh Navigation App on the phone. Go into Navigation settings / Map layeramd poke around to find the one that suits you the best. Don't forget a little ">" under the title "Map layer" on the right to explore further.
