"Free Ride": target on map

[Corrado Miniati]

Hello,
On the V6 home page there is also the "Free Ride" option. Would it be possible to add the following improvements?

1. Direct destination selection from the map As soon as you enter Free Ride mode, it would be very useful to be able to select a destination directly with a single tap on the map, without having to open the "Navigate to a place" submenu first.
   The "Navigate to a place" menu could then remain available only for searching a known location or for accessing other options such as Favorites, POI, Parking, etc.

2. Crosshair for more precise destination selection It would be very helpful to have a fixed crosshair displayed at the center of the map. By moving the map underneath the crosshair, the user could precisely position the target location and then confirm the selection.
   When selecting a destination by tapping directly on the map, especially with larger fingers or while wearing motorcycle gloves, it is often difficult to choose the exact desired point. A crosshair-based method would greatly improve accuracy and usability.

In other words, by moving the map, the selected point would be positioned exactly under the crosshair, making destination selection much more precise.

Thanks a lot

1. Tap a POI from the map or long press anywhere and this is possible
2. Not going to do that

Hi Corjan, thanks for feedback.

1- For the first point, I noticed that selecting a destination can only be done by entering the second menu, “Navigate to a Place”, and not directly from the map displayed after selecting “Free Ride.”
If the intention is simply to tap a location on the map and start navigating there, it would be much more convenient to avoid the extra step of opening “Navigate to a Place” first.
In my opinion, allowing users to select a destination directly from the Free Ride map would make the workflow faster and more intuitive, reducing the number of actions required to start a route. Especially on a motorcycle, where ease of use and minimizing interaction time are important, this would be a valuable usability improvement.

2- ok
