I love the direction the app is heading to start off.
- We need in app volume control. So if my phone volume is up or down , no matter what when the app is on it has a preset volume I have set.
- Zoom control. I want to be able to zoom out to see more and not drive off the screen or have it automatically switch back.
- When I make a route I want to follow it. Not have the app send me on a different road or turn me around. I set a route for a reason. The app continually reroutes me on different roads as it doesn’t like them even though they are my chosen route and are good paved not closed roads.

Regarding point 3.
The simple answer is just to add more Waypoints to stop the Route making decisions for you. -

When you make a route, you let the Routeplanner make the curvy decisions for you and you trust it for making the ideal route, not adding 90 waypoints on every corner just to be sure... Then you go on the road just to have your planned route completely destroyed by the routing app.
A tracking only option would be awesome in Next, basically what MRA App is doing but with the benefits of the new features in Next. Just don't route between waypoints for this option... I would LOVE to see this...

@Tumbleweed Thanks for the feedback!
1: We already added this to the long list of community feedback! Will be done in the future
2: Good idea, added it
3: The app has some default preferences for which route is choses. This cannot be changed at the current stage. We do have this listed as a future requirement. However, regardless of all said. If you choose to drive on another road, the app (or any navigation device) can be quite committed to it's chosen path. So if you really want to drive a specific route, more waypoints is always the answer
