Plan and navigate using OpenCycleMap (as is done by Komoot)
-
Unfortunatily in MRA navigation is based on the HERE map only. This makes it completely useless for cyclists like me that need to navigate on the (more detailed) OpenStreetMap and OpenCycleMap maps (including the so called Dutch knooppuntroutes). Lots of cyclists therefore use the great app Komoot (check it out!) that does exactly this. If MRA also include navigation based on the open street maps, it will be a killer application/ Komoot users can stop using Komoot and MRA will be the only app they need, as the supplier of MRA want to achieve. Please support my request to include navigation using open maps by leaving your comment here. Thank you.

@dannygroeneveld The MRA Mobile app offers you a follow the line navigation option. This is perfect for cycling or walking. You can also use the OpenStreetMap Cycling, and it is free. No need for other apps
Always willing to help if I can.

@Nick-Carthew thank you for reacting! What is the 'follow the line option'? It seems not documented in the manual nor on the website. Please show link to the description of that function. Also, I like to get voice support while cycling, is that also possible with the follow the line trick?

Follow the line means, you open a route and you follow the line of the route. As you progress the map and position marker will move with you. There is no voice instructions using this method because you will be using the OSM Cycling map.

I tried your suggestion and it does works. Nevertheless, the Komoot app has a number of additional features for bikers (like voice navigation, on screen info on distance to next point, speed info, real time altitude info, important: info on all road types in the route and much more. Also it is a social network, and users can easely share routes, share highlights on the road, etc. I think I will keep both apps (MRA for car and Komoor for walking and cycling).
