New Beta! (v3.2.15) Android Auto!

[Bart De Medts]

@Corjan-Meijerink A map update in the app, is that something that is automatically pushed by HERE or does it require intervention from the MRA team?

1. When can we get miles/feet working properly? In the USA, we don't use yards.

• On Android Auto, it shows yds in place of miles, but speaks miles.
• On the dash of my Bronco Sport it has an indicator of the next navigation instruction. It is in miles and feet...

2. Samsung Galaxy S23+. When I just use the main screen to look/follow on the map, it's fine. As soon as I try to navigate somewhere, it's incredibly slow to update the location, it doesn't find me on the road I am on, it sometimes puts me 1 mile away on another road that I'm not on...

3. I haven't been able to use any of the betas. Like any of them. On 4 different Android devices. The constant crashing, and now it can't seem to navigate me anywhere.

@Matt-Flaming, can you check the settings of the location services in Android? I usually disable what Google calls "enhanced positioning by WiFi" or equivalent. It actually adds nonsense to the GPS stream if you are carrying a hotspot. If your Samsung puts you in a place where you are not, could you check the location in an other app, to see if it is off there too?

The constant crashes of the app seems to be a long gone problem, so I am surprised by your comment. Can you pinpoint under what circumstances, at what actions, or in which screens or menus that happens? maybe a video or screenrecording of when that happens? I can't help you there, but that info will assist the MRA team in assessing what goes wrong.

@Con-Hennekens Location works fine with literally every other app.

I regularly use Waze, TomTom Go/AmiGo/Go Ride, Maps, AutoZen, Locus, Gaia, CalTopo, Kurviger, and Guru. A couple more not worth mentioning as well.

Location works fine when I open MRA. It's only when it starts the "Navigation" is it completely and utterly wrong. If connected to Android Auto, AA is not AS laggy, but still lags behind. Not to mention all the inaccurate distances (yds instead of miles).

This isn't a problem with the device. It's only the navigation in MRA.

@Matt-Flaming, Okay, I am afraid you need help from someone more technical then me. It is a bit odd though that there are so many Beta testers of which none of them is experiencing these displacements. That's why I was thinking of a phone problem before a app problem. Maybe Corjan has an idea. He will be back from holiday next week.

@Con-Hennekens I've tested with 3 different devices.

My only guess is that it's always related to the unit of measurements, or because I'm in USA.

Hi
I tried connecting MRA to my Android radio
I followed the instructions but
No screen at all only navigation instructions but audio
Do I need to install the MRA app on the radio unit itself
