    The route line is thick and non-transparent. This means you can't read the street name underneath. You have no idea what street you're supposed to be riding down. It makes planning difficult because you can't compare route modes because you don't know what streets the route is planning.

    For what it's worth, a similar app to yours that also uses open street maps has the same problem. They don't have a solution.

      @Nick-4f, The current streetname as well as the upcoming streetname are displayed in the app:

      I agree that the street names on the actual map are not readable while underway, but to be honest, I have the upcoming street name disabled in the app-settings, because I really don't care about street names. You usually can't read any street names in the real world too, so in my opinion it adds nothing to have them readable in the app. Not for scenic routes anyway.

      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.
