    Hey everyone! 👋

    Today is the day for another big update! We've fixed the most crucial issue in the app and added / tweaked a lot of functionalities! We're pretty sure that you will be very pleased with this update ❤

    It will be available somewhere between today and tomorrow 🙂

    Obviously we gave this update a good test about which you can read here: https://forum.myrouteapp.com/topic/4379/alpha-test-result

    Position delay
    Finally the day is here that we can announce that the position delay in the app has been fixed! 🎉 🎉 Not a lot of images to share or to write about but this is the most important change of the update! I’d simply recommend that you all go out and enjoy the weather to experience it for yourself.

    App walkthrough
    As we are approaching the release, we need to make sure that users understand the app! Therefore we’ve added two walkthroughs in the app 😏

    • The first explains the basic functionalities of the app previously known as the “Mobile” app. This will allows users to understand where they can find which features.
    • The second walkthrough explains the layout of the navigation module and the important nifty little features you can find there. For example tapping the ETA field.

    walkthrough.png

    Can the walkthroughs be skipped? No! It only takes a few click and we believe it adds a lot of information about the app, such that everybody should see it at least once 😉

    Improved tilt / zoom (dynamic camera)
    In almost every update we tried to accomplish this. However..... we were stupid and missed a very stupid little detail. This explained all the user reports where they mentioned that the map would not be tilted at all 😞 So now we can finally say that the dynamic camera correctly tilts in all scenario’s. This means that you will always have a tilted view! You don’t want that? Keep on reading!

    field_of_depth.png

    Fixed camera & zoom buttons
    You knew that tapping the compass would cycle between the dynamic camera (automatic tilt & zoom) and the fixed camera (top-down view). In the fixed mode, north would always be facing up. This has been changed so that your heading faces up (like the dynamic camera).
    In this camera mode the camera will always show a top-down (no tilt) view and you may choose your own zoom level using the new zoom buttons!

    zoom_buttons.png

    UI rework of tracking button
    Adding the previously mentioned zoom buttons was a pain in the ass regarding the layout. Therefore we reworked some buttons to make better use of available space 😍 Tapping the tracklog button now pops out the different options. This allows a more scalable solution for adding buttons to the map. The same type of button has been used for the zoom buttons.

    Building layout
    Some people prefer 3D buildings 🏢 on the map (like the app was until today) but others hated it. You can now choose this for yourself!

    • “Off” doesn’t show any buildings
    • “2D” only shows the footprint of buildings (this is now the default setting)
    • “3D” shows them like you were used to
      We thought it would be best to make 2D the default as this is what most people seem to prefer.

    building_render.png

    Where can you change this setting? Map layout might be a good place to look.

    Long routes issue
    The app wasn’t able to calculate the fastest route to a destination far away (> 600km). This has now been fixed! 🙂
    A nice extra is that the calculated fastest route now matches the selected suggested route when starting navigation.

    Traffic preference
    In the functional navigation settings there was a setting to toggle “Traffic information”. This has been renamed to “Traffic aware route calculation”. When enabled the map will show traffic jams and takes them into account when calculating the route 🚗 🚗 🚗
    Using routes from the website? The behavior in the app and routeplanner are aligned! This ensures that you always drive the route exactly as you planned it.

    settings.png

    Improved waypoint list
    The waypoint list is a great tool to show the passed and remainder of your route.
    As of this update it actually opens at the upcoming waypoint, the menu cannot be closed accidentally anymore and we’ve added a visual distinction between the passed, current and upcoming waypoints.

    Resume navigation issue
    When resuming a previous navigation session sometimes the incorrect waypoint was used. This issue has been fixed! 😃

    Bad internet & login page
    If you had a bad internet connection the login page would sometimes appear. We’ve made improvements to prevent this from happening. If you still encounter it, please let us know!

    Creating scenic routes & round tours
    Fixed two major frustrations regarding the route creation menu:

    • It cannot be closed anymore by swiping it down
    • When changing the travel mode the calculated route now also updates appropriately

    roundtours.png

    Offline mode indicator
    Are you driving in offline mode? We’ve added a nice little indicator to show this.

    Track navigation validation
    When loading a track in navigation, you sometimes see warnings about errors in the route. This popup is purely informational but can be frustrating if you drive a lot of tracks. If you really don’t care about the warning, it can be turned off from the functional navigation settings 😉

    Using TomTom / OSM routes
    If you open a route created in the TomTom / OSM map for navigation, we now display a warning that the calculated route might differ from the planned route. This makes sense because the app uses HERE as foundation of the navigation. You may choose to accept any (possible) differences for what it is or load it as track. Using track navigation ensures you drive exactly what you planned but you loose all waypoint functionality.

    here_warning.png

    What's next?

    The release is approaching fast! With this update we are confident that the app is ready for a great release 🎉 In the remaining two weeks the most important issues we will work on and make sure that they are fixed are:

    • Offline maps download stability / lack of progress
    • Voice prompt stability & configuration options
    • Battery usage

    Obviously we still got some other minor features we want to implement but the above will be the focus. Besides that, we'll keep on processing all your feedback 🙂

    Looking forward to your experiences with this update!

    Best,
    Corjan

        @Corjan-Meijerink Fantastisch werk!👏 Deze week naar de Eifel en Luxemburg geweest om daar te toeren met de ondersteuning van de nieuwe app. Op een paar kleine dingen na werkt de app nu al behoorlijk goed.

          Nice, deze week met de motor en mra route gereden, mooie display en goed te zien. Ook fijn dat na stops de route direct wordt opgenomen om verder te zetten. Eindelijk van dat Garmin gedoe vanaf van terug rijden en herberekenen afzetten en nieuwe route proberen in te laden.

                A nice extra is that the calculated fastest route now matches the selected suggested route when starting navigation.

                Traffic preference
                In the functional navigation settings there was a setting to toggle “Traffic information”. This has been renamed to “Traffic aware route calculation”. When enabled the map will show traffic jams and takes them into account when calculating the route 🚗 🚗 🚗
                Using routes from the website? The behavior in the app and routeplanner are aligned! This ensures that you always drive the route exactly as you planned it.

                Improved waypoint list
                The waypoint list is a great tool to show the passed and remainder of your route.
                As of this update it actually opens at the upcoming waypoint, the menu cannot be closed accidentally anymore and we’ve added a visual distinction between the passed, current and upcoming waypoints.

                Resume navigation issue
                When resuming a previous navigation session sometimes the incorrect waypoint was used. This issue has been fixed! 😃

                Bad internet & login page
                If you had a bad internet connection the login page would sometimes appear. We’ve made improvements to prevent this from happening. If you still encounter it, please let us know!

                Creating scenic routes & round tours
                Fixed two major frustrations regarding the route creation menu:

                • It cannot be closed anymore by swiping it down
                • When changing the travel mode the calculated route now also updates appropriately

                Offline mode indicator
                Are you driving in offline mode? We’ve added a nice little indicator to show this.

                Track navigation validation
                When loading a track in navigation, you sometimes see warnings about errors in the route. This popup is purely informational but can be frustrating if you drive a lot of tracks. If you really don’t care about the warning, it can be turned off from the functional navigation settings 😉

                Using TomTom / OSM routes
                If you open a route created in the TomTom / OSM map for navigation, we now display a warning that the calculated route might differ from the planned route. This makes sense because the app uses HERE as foundation of the navigation. You may choose to accept any (possible) differences for what it is or load it as track. Using track navigation ensures you drive exactly what you planned but you loose all waypoint functionality.

                What's next?

                The release is approaching fast! With this update we are confident that the app is ready for a great release 🎉 In the remaining two weeks the most important issues we will work on and make sure that they are fixed are:

                • Offline maps download stability / lack of progress
                • Voice prompt stability & configuration options
                • Battery usage

                Obviously we still got some other minor features we want to implement but the above will be the focus. Besides that, we'll keep on processing all your feedback 🙂

                Looking forward to your experiences with this update!

                  Hey everyone! 👋

                  Today is the day for another big update! We've fixed the most crucial issue in the app and added / tweaked a lot of functionalities! We're pretty sure that you will be very pleased with this update ❤

                  It will be available somewhere between today and tomorrow 🙂

                  Obviously we gave this update a good test about which you can read here: https://forum.myrouteapp.com/topic/4379/alpha-test-result

                  Position delay
                  Finally the day is here that we can announce that the position delay in the app has been fixed! 🎉 🎉 Not a lot of images to share or to write about but this is the most important change of the update! I’d simply recommend that you all go out and enjoy the weather to experience it for yourself.

                  App walkthrough
                  As we are approaching the release, we need to make sure that users understand the app! Therefore we’ve added two walkthroughs in the app 😏

                  • The first explains the basic functionalities of the app previously known as the “Mobile” app. This will allows users to understand where they can find which features.
                  • The second walkthrough explains the layout of the navigation module and the important nifty little features you can find there. For example tapping the ETA field.

                  walkthrough.png

                  Can the walkthroughs be skipped? No! It only takes a few click and we believe it adds a lot of information about the app, such that everybody should see it at least once 😉

                  Improved tilt / zoom (dynamic camera)
                  In almost every update we tried to accomplish this. However..... we were stupid and missed a very stupid little detail. This explained all the user reports where they mentioned that the map would not be tilted at all 😞 So now we can finally say that the dynamic camera correctly tilts in all scenario’s. This means that you will always have a tilted view! You don’t want that? Keep on reading!

                  field_of_depth.png

                  Fixed camera & zoom buttons
                  You knew that tapping the compass would cycle between the dynamic camera (automatic tilt & zoom) and the fixed camera (top-down view). In the fixed mode, north would always be facing up. This has been changed so that your heading faces up (like the dynamic camera).
                  In this camera mode the camera will always show a top-down (no tilt) view and you may choose your own zoom level using the new zoom buttons!

                  zoom_buttons.png

                  UI rework of tracking button
                  Adding the previously mentioned zoom buttons was a pain in the ass regarding the layout. Therefore we reworked some buttons to make better use of available space 😍 Tapping the tracklog button now pops out the different options. This allows a more scalable solution for adding buttons to the map. The same type of button has been used for the zoom buttons.

                  Building layout
                  Some people prefer 3D buildings 🏢 on the map (like the app was until today) but others hated it. You can now choose this for yourself!

                  • “Off” doesn’t show any buildings
                  • “2D” only shows the footprint of buildings (this is now the default setting)
                  • “3D” shows them like you were used to
                    We thought it would be best to make 2D the default as this is what most people seem to prefer.

                  building_render.png

                  Where can you change this setting? Map layout might be a good place to look.

                  Long routes issue
                  The app wasn’t able to calculate the fastest route to a destination far away (> 600km). This has now been fixed! 🙂

                  @Corjan-Meijerink geweldige update weer, hoop handige functies die ik hier in Polen al met plezier gebruik zoals de 3D en het zoomen.
                  Op de Samsung Active Tab 3 heb ik al een poos geen probleem meer met battery life, blijft keurig tot 100% bijladen, zelfs op volledig helder scherm
                  Beyond impressed, ook Joost natuurlijk

I’d simply recommend that you all go out and enjoy the weather to experience it for yourself.

                        App walkthrough
                        As we are approaching the release, we need to make sure that users understand the app! Therefore we’ve added two walkthroughs in the app 😏

                        • The first explains the basic functionalities of the app previously known as the “Mobile” app. This will allows users to understand where they can find which features.
                        • The second walkthrough explains the layout of the navigation module and the important nifty little features you can find there. For example tapping the ETA field.

                        walkthrough.png

                        Can the walkthroughs be skipped? No! It only takes a few click and we believe it adds a lot of information about the app, such that everybody should see it at least once 😉

                        Improved tilt / zoom (dynamic camera)
                        In almost every update we tried to accomplish this. However..... we were stupid and missed a very stupid little detail. This explained all the user reports where they mentioned that the map would not be tilted at all 😞 So now we can finally say that the dynamic camera correctly tilts in all scenario’s. This means that you will always have a tilted view! You don’t want that? Keep on reading!

                        field_of_depth.png

                        Fixed camera & zoom buttons
                        You knew that tapping the compass would cycle between the dynamic camera (automatic tilt & zoom) and the fixed camera (top-down view). In the fixed mode, north would always be facing up. This has been changed so that your heading faces up (like the dynamic camera).
                        In this camera mode the camera will always show a top-down (no tilt) view and you may choose your own zoom level using the new zoom buttons!

                        zoom_buttons.png

                        UI rework of tracking button
                        Adding the previously mentioned zoom buttons was a pain in the ass regarding the layout. Therefore we reworked some buttons to make better use of available space 😍 Tapping the tracklog button now pops out the different options. This allows a more scalable solution for adding buttons to the map. The same type of button has been used for the zoom buttons.

                        Building layout
                        Some people prefer 3D buildings 🏢 on the map (like the app was until today) but others hated it. You can now choose this for yourself!

                        • “Off” doesn’t show any buildings
                        • “2D” only shows the footprint of buildings (this is now the default setting)
                        • “3D” shows them like you were used to
                          We thought it would be best to make 2D the default as this is what most people seem to prefer.

                        building_render.png

                        Where can you change this setting? Map layout might be a good place to look.

                        Long routes issue
                        The app wasn’t able to calculate the fastest route to a destination far away (> 600km). This has now been fixed! 🙂
                        A nice extra is that the calculated fastest route now matches the selected suggested route when starting navigation.

                        Traffic preference
                        In the functional navigation settings there was a setting to toggle “Traffic information”. This has been renamed to “Traffic aware route calculation”. When enabled the map will show traffic jams and takes them into account when calculating the route 🚗 🚗 🚗
                        Using routes from the website? The behavior in the app and routeplanner are aligned! This ensures that you always drive the route exactly as you planned it.

                        settings.png

                        Improved waypoint list
                        The waypoint list is a great tool to show the passed and remainder of your route.
                        As of this update it actually opens at the upcoming waypoint, the menu cannot be closed accidentally anymore and we’ve added a visual distinction between the passed, current and upcoming waypoints.

                        Resume navigation issue
                        When resuming a previous navigation session sometimes the incorrect waypoint was used. This issue has been fixed! 😃

                        Bad internet & login page
                        If you had a bad internet connection the login page would sometimes appear. We’ve made improvements to prevent this from happening. If you still encounter it, please let us know!

                        Creating scenic routes & round tours
                        Fixed two major frustrations regarding the route creation menu:

                        • It cannot be closed anymore by swiping it down
                        • When changing the travel mode the calculated route now also updates appropriately

                        roundtours.png

                        Offline mode indicator
                        Are you driving in offline mode? We’ve added a nice little indicator to show this.

                        Track navigation validation
                        When loading a track in navigation, you sometimes see warnings about errors in the route. This popup is purely informational but can be frustrating if you drive a lot of tracks. If you really don’t care about the warning, it can be turned off from the functional navigation settings 😉

                        Using TomTom / OSM routes
                        If you open a route created in the TomTom / OSM map for navigation, we now display a warning that the calculated route might differ from the planned route. This makes sense because the app uses HERE as foundation of the navigation. You may choose to accept any (possible) differences for what it is or load it as track. Using track navigation ensures you drive exactly what you planned but you loose all waypoint functionality.

                        here_warning.png

                        What's next?

                        The release is approaching fast! With this update we are confident that the app is ready for a great release 🎉 In the remaining two weeks the most important issues we will work on and make sure that they are fixed are:

                        • Offline maps download stability / lack of progress
                        • Voice prompt stability & configuration options
                        • Battery usage

                        Obviously we still got some other minor features we want to implement but the above will be the focus. Besides that, we'll keep on processing all your feedback 🙂

                        Looking forward to your experiences with this update!

                        Best,

                          Hey everyone! 👋

                          Today is the day for another big update! We've fixed the most crucial issue in the app and added / tweaked a lot of functionalities! We're pretty sure that you will be very pleased with this update ❤

                          It will be available somewhere between today and tomorrow 🙂

                          Obviously we gave this update a good test about which you can read here: https://forum.myrouteapp.com/topic/4379/alpha-test-result

                          Position delay
                          Finally the day is here that we can announce that the position delay in the app has been fixed! 🎉 🎉 Not a lot of images to share or to write about but this is the most important change of the update!

                            Hey Corjan,
                            Ik heb even een pauze ergens in de buurt van Sveg in Zweden.
                            Dit is de 6e dag van mijn trip naar de Noordkaap. Ik heb nu ong 2k gereden en heb nog 10k te gaan in 20 dagen.😀.
                            Ik rijd met MRA beta en TomTom Rider 550 naast elkaar en ben alles aan het vergelijken.
                            Ik was in het begin van bèta erg sceptisch, maar op dit moment kan ik redelijk mijn weg vinden. Probleempjes waar ik nu tegen aanloop is dat ik geen poi's zie langs de route en heb nog niet kunnen vinden waar ik dit aan kan zetten. De pompstations zijn hier erg belangrijk 😜.
                            Verder heb problemen met het terugkeren in de app als je even iets anders gedaan hebt op je telefoon. Er is dan geen kaart zichtbaar. Als je navigatie stop en start, dan is de kaart weer terug. Als je gelukt hebt start hij waar je was gebleven en anders aan het begin van de route. Ook hier heb ik nog niet kunnen vinden waar ik het routepunt kan kiezen waar ik verder wil. Sorry als dat al ergens in het forum staat of in de nieuwe beta zit.

                              @Johan-Ri, mooie tocht voor de boeg!
                              Fijn dat het vergelijk met jouw vertrouwde TomTom goed uitpakt!
                              POI's zichtbaar maken is iets voor ná de release waarschijnlijk, maar vóór de release wordt er nog gewerkt aan aan de melding voor het dichtstbijzijnde tankstation op de route (en hoever dat is). Het probleem dat sommigen ervaren met het hervatten van de route is in de update van vanochtend al gefixt.

                              I am just an enthusiastic MRA user, and hope you will be one too!

                              Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebar to the saddle.

                                Looks like a great release with lots of new features and enhancements. Looking forward to testing and using it on my 14 day tour starting next week. CHEERS! 👍 🏍

                                  I have just signed up for Next but have been using MRA for a while to plan rides. I’m so looking forward to having my first ride using Next. Have removed TomTom mount from the bike and replaced with a Quad Lock. I do hope I’m not disappointed. Using TomTom for routes/tracks is not good

                                    Fantastic work team MRA, well done! I can't wait to try this latest release, away on a trip next week and will, on some days, be running this in parallel to my Garmin just for the sake of comparison. Hoping that the Garmin can be replaced by MRA Next in the coming months.

                                      Hey everyone! 👋

                                      Today is the day for another big update! We've fixed the most crucial issue in the app and added / tweaked a lot of functionalities! We're pretty sure that you will be very pleased with this update ❤

                                      It will be available somewhere between today and tomorrow 🙂

                                      Obviously we gave this update a good test about which you can read here: https://forum.myrouteapp.com/topic/4379/alpha-test-result

                                      Position delay
                                      Finally the day is here that we can announce that the position delay in the app has been fixed! 🎉 🎉 Not a lot of images to share or to write about but this is the most important change of the update! I’d simply recommend that you all go out and enjoy the weather to experience it for yourself.

                                      App walkthrough
                                      As we are approaching the release, we need to make sure that users understand the app! Therefore we’ve added two walkthroughs in the app 😏

                                      • The first explains the basic functionalities of the app previously known as the “Mobile” app. This will allows users to understand where they can find which features.
                                      • The second walkthrough explains the layout of the navigation module and the important nifty little features you can find there. For example tapping the ETA field.

                                      walkthrough.png

                                      Can the walkthroughs be skipped? No! It only takes a few click and we believe it adds a lot of information about the app, such that everybody should see it at least once 😉

                                      Improved tilt / zoom (dynamic camera)
                                      In almost every update we tried to accomplish this. However..... we were stupid and missed a very stupid little detail. This explained all the user reports where they mentioned that the map would not be tilted at all 😞 So now we can finally say that the dynamic camera correctly tilts in all scenario’s. This means that you will always have a tilted view! You don’t want that? Keep on reading!

                                      field_of_depth.png

                                      Fixed camera & zoom buttons
                                      You knew that tapping the compass would cycle between the dynamic camera (automatic tilt & zoom) and the fixed camera (top-down view). In the fixed mode, north would always be facing up. This has been changed so that your heading faces up (like the dynamic camera).
                                      In this camera mode the camera will always show a top-down (no tilt) view and you may choose your own zoom level using the new zoom buttons!

                                      zoom_buttons.png

                                      UI rework of tracking button
                                      Adding the previously mentioned zoom buttons was a pain in the ass regarding the layout. Therefore we reworked some buttons to make better use of available space 😍 Tapping the tracklog button now pops out the different options. This allows a more scalable solution for adding buttons to the map. The same type of button has been used for the zoom buttons.

                                      Building layout
                                      Some people prefer 3D buildings 🏢 on the map (like the app was until today) but others hated it. You can now choose this for yourself!

                                      • “Off” doesn’t show any buildings
                                      • “2D” only shows the footprint of buildings (this is now the default setting)
                                      • “3D” shows them like you were used to
                                        We thought it would be best to make 2D the default as this is what most people seem to prefer.

                                      building_render.png

                                      Where can you change this setting? Map layout might be a good place to look.

                                      Long routes issue
                                      The app wasn’t able to calculate the fastest route to a destination far away (> 600km). This has now been fixed! 🙂
                                      A nice extra is that the calculated fastest route now matches the selected suggested route when starting navigation.

                                      Traffic preference
                                      In the functional navigation settings there was a setting to toggle “Traffic information”. This has been renamed to “Traffic aware route calculation”. When enabled the map will show traffic jams and takes them into account when calculating the route 🚗 🚗 🚗
                                      Using routes from the website? The behavior in the app and routeplanner are aligned! This ensures that you always drive the route exactly as you planned it.

                                      Improved waypoint list
                                      The waypoint list is a great tool to show the passed and remainder of your route.
                                      As of this update it actually opens at the upcoming waypoint, the menu cannot be closed accidentally anymore and we’ve added a visual distinction between the passed, current and upcoming waypoints.

                                      Resume navigation issue
                                      When resuming a previous navigation session sometimes the incorrect waypoint was used. This issue has been fixed! 😃

                                      Bad internet & login page
                                      If you had a bad internet connection the login page would sometimes appear. We’ve made improvements to prevent this from happening. If you still encounter it, please let us know!

                                      Creating scenic routes & round tours
                                      Fixed two major frustrations regarding the route creation menu:

                                      • It cannot be closed anymore by swiping it down
                                      • When changing the travel mode the calculated route now also updates appropriately

                                      roundtours.png

                                      Offline mode indicator
                                      Are you driving in offline mode? We’ve added a nice little indicator to show this.

                                      Track navigation validation
                                      When loading a track in navigation, you sometimes see warnings about errors in the route. This popup is purely informational but can be frustrating if you drive a lot of tracks. If you really don’t care about the warning, it can be turned off from the functional navigation settings 😉

                                      Using TomTom / OSM routes
                                      If you open a route created in the TomTom / OSM map for navigation, we now display a warning that the calculated route might differ from the planned route. This makes sense because the app uses HERE as foundation of the navigation. You may choose to accept any (possible) differences for what it is or load it as track. Using track navigation ensures you drive exactly what you planned but you loose all waypoint functionality.

                                      What's next?

                                      The release is approaching fast! With this update we are confident that the app is ready for a great release 🎉 In the remaining two weeks the most important issues we will work on and make sure that they are fixed are:

                                      • Offline maps download stability / lack of progress
                                      • Voice prompt stability & configuration options
                                      • Battery usage

                                      Obviously we still got some other minor features we want to implement but the above will be the focus. Besides that, we'll keep on processing all your feedback 🙂

                                      Looking forward to your experiences with this update!

                                      Best,
                                      Corjan

                                          • “3D” shows them like you were used to
                                            We thought it would be best to make 2D the default as this is what most people seem to prefer.

                                          Where can you change this setting? Map layout might be a good place to look.

                                          Long routes issue
                                          The app wasn’t able to calculate the fastest route to a destination far away (> 600km). This has now been fixed! 🙂
                                          A nice extra is that the calculated fastest route now matches the selected suggested route when starting navigation.

                                          Traffic preference
                                          In the functional navigation settings there was a setting to toggle “Traffic information”. This has been renamed to “Traffic aware route calculation”. When enabled the map will show traffic jams and takes them into account when calculating the route 🚗 🚗 🚗
                                          Using routes from the website? The behavior in the app and routeplanner are aligned! This ensures that you always drive the route exactly as you planned it.

                                          Improved waypoint list
                                          The waypoint list is a great tool to show the passed and remainder of your route.
                                          As of this update it actually opens at the upcoming waypoint, the menu cannot be closed accidentally anymore and we’ve added a visual distinction between the passed, current and upcoming waypoints.

                                          Resume navigation issue
                                          When resuming a previous navigation session sometimes the incorrect waypoint was used. This issue has been fixed! 😃

                                          Bad internet & login page
                                          If you had a bad internet connection the login page would sometimes appear. We’ve made improvements to prevent this from happening. If you still encounter it, please let us know!

                                          Creating scenic routes & round tours
                                          Fixed two major frustrations regarding the route creation menu:

                                          • It cannot be closed anymore by swiping it down
                                          • When changing the travel mode the calculated route now also updates appropriately

                                          Offline mode indicator
                                          Are you driving in offline mode? We’ve added a nice little indicator to show this.

                                          Track navigation validation
                                          When loading a track in navigation, you sometimes see warnings about errors in the route. This popup is purely informational but can be frustrating if you drive a lot of tracks. If you really don’t care about the warning, it can be turned off from the functional navigation settings 😉

                                          Using TomTom / OSM routes
                                          If you open a route created in the TomTom / OSM map for navigation, we now display a warning that the calculated route might differ from the planned route. This makes sense because the app uses HERE as foundation of the navigation. You may choose to accept any (possible) differences for what it is or load it as track. Using track navigation ensures you drive exactly what you planned but you loose all waypoint functionality.

                                          What's next?

                                          The release is approaching fast! With this update we are confident that the app is ready for a great release 🎉 In the remaining two weeks the most important issues we will work on and make sure that they are fixed are:

                                          • Offline maps download stability / lack of progress
                                          • Voice prompt stability & configuration options
                                          • Battery usage

                                          Obviously we still got some other minor features we want to implement but the above will be the focus. Besides that, we'll keep on processing all your feedback 🙂

                                          Looking forward to your experiences with this update!

                                          Best,

                                          Different Map Recomended?
                                          I get a notification that my route was created with OSM, however this is not correct as I only use the Here map exclusively?

                                          Update: This only seems to happen the first time opening a Route from the Downloads folder.
                                          Opening the route a second time does not give the message.

                                          You don’t stop riding when you get old, you get old when you stop riding.
