New beta! v4.3.0 (project sync)
-
Ladies and gentlemen!
It's been a while and believe me, it has also been quite some work.
A massive shoutout to Joost is well deserved
He works in the dark to serve the light! And he definitely brings to light to all MRA users with this update. After a lot of technical coding 
we are proud to present this smashing 4.3.0 update: project Sync! 
Sync all your routes
Sync? What is sync? According to the oxford dictionary:
in (or out of) sync working well (or badly) together; in (or out of) agreement.
With this update, the app will sync well with the website.
Meaning that all your routes will be magically synced across both platforms
You can select to sync all your routes or choose an individual route to be synced.
When a route (or all for that matter) is marked as syncable, any changes made to that route in the app, will be uploaded to the website. Or when the route is modified on the website, it will be automatically updated on your phone
By doing so, all your routes will be available in the app all the time and most important of all, they are up to date
Therefore the downloads folder now no longer contains your own routes.
Groups / events / friends are not synced or available offline by default. You will still need to download these yourself and yes, they can be found in your downloads.Conflict handling
What if you made changes in the app and on the website? How do we select the right one to save? We don't! You do
Conflicts are automatically detected and you are forced to resolve these in the app.
Restyling information screen
To facilitate the offline availability of all your routes, the information screen has been modified too!
A cleaner look and besides that the following options have been added:
- Share link to route
- Show QR code for easy access
- Mark route to be synced
- Delete
Map styles navigation
Yippee-ki-yay, motherf***er!
This one will make a lot of people very, very happy!The HERE map lacked some detail. Sad but true
A weird development how all major map suppliers changed their colour scheme to be less rich in contrast.
Head over to the map styling section and be amazed! We offer 3 different colour themes and 5 editions! Are you oriented on logistical roads, we got your back!
Want to use the old colour scheme? Try out "Wong" Bonus points to the person that discovers the favourite band of me and Joost.
Improvements generated routes
Did you ever generate a nice route? Did you ever want to save / share that? I guess both apply to you but you could never achieve the second
An issue that is no more!
Generate a route and with the touch of a button, you can share the same configuration to your buddy. As this is a QR code, we expect the person that scans it, to be in the same location as you
If not, just save the route! Then you can share the route and it will work too.Minor changes
- Improved Spanish translations thanks to active MRA user Ramon C.L.
- You can now switch between imperial and metric directly from the app
- HERE SDK updated to newest version
Wrapup
If this isn't a great update, I don't know what else we can do!
Hopefully you all enjoy this update. There are even more little, nifty details for you to discover. We are looking forward to all your feedback over the coming days. Hopefully we will be able to release this to the public before the end of this month.Cheers,
Corjan
@Corjan-Meijerink this update is amazing! Great job

Corjanwrote on 20 Aug 2024, 15:45 last edited by@Corjan-Meijerink Can't wait to try this, especially for the colours. It's been a problem using my Chigee screen that will now be solved. Also easier to swap imperial to metric when going on tour out of the UK will be a godsend (I could never remember where to do it)

Nice Update, thanks for all the hard work.
Especially like the Routes syncing so no more needing to “download” them locally before going on a tour…. Awesome! -
@Peter-Schiefer I have been able to update just now through Test Flight.

Thanks for the update and very happy with the way the maps look now. When just playing a little with the app I found something strange. When I open and start navigation a route which was created for a motorbike or car, the route is navigated in camper mode which is my default setting for creating new routes. I also have to confirm the camper message before navigation starts.

@Corjan-Meijerink Love what has been done with this update and the project sync appears to be working really well so far.
That said, when saving generated tracks, I wonder if a previous ‘pop up’ screen might now be redundant.
If I take a route that i have quickly created and stop navigation, I receive the unusual ‘No’ or ‘Navigate” - photo 1.
However, if I then say no, the following appears - photo 2:
I still have the option to navigate, close the route without saving or enter MRA Planner for changes and/or saving. Not sure I need the step at photo 1 given the options in photo 2.
Maybe it is to do with CarPlay but happy to be corrected if I am missing something.

@Arno-0 This seems to always have been the issue.
I've fixed it for the next build! -

Corjan@Corjan-Meijerink It is a really goos job, congratulations and thanks!
Is there a way to mark every newly created route synced by default?
I did a quick test, the route has been synced and works fine but there is no map preview on the initial screen, can it be improved?

@Dave-J-0 It is indeed something different.
Resume navigation immediately continues where you were when you stopped it (apparently before reaching the finish).
Navigate will just start all over as if it's a fresh start.Regardless, I've changed something in this flow

Developerwrote on 21 Aug 2024, 07:07 last edited by Corjan Meijerink@Stanisław If you enable the sync all, this will also ensure all your newly created routes will be synced.
To load the map, an internet connection is required at this point.
Therefore we added a pretty custom background and simply draw the shape of the route (when you're offline) If that doesn't give you enough info, just start the navigation and those offline maps will be used! -

@Corjan-Meijerink Brill thank you. Sync is working brilliantly for me. More testing later.
Map styles is great and they look good on the phone. That said, they may need more contrast or vibrancy for CarPlay; I will see later.
