    I have set "automatically start tracklog" under the navigation settings. However, when using Apple CarPlay, nothing is logged during navigation, and nothing is saved when stopping. Why can't it be set so that the track is automatically logged every time the app is used in CarPlay?

    regards
    Ralf

      @Ralf-Zimmerningkat The tracklog is only started for scenic or created routes. Not for A to B navigation.

        And why is that so? Why aren’t all rides logged? That would be much nicer even by using Carplay

          @Ralf-Zimmerningkat Deliberate choice.
          Our users do not tend to be interested in automatic keeping track of AB routes 😉

          Starting / stopping a tracklog from CarPlay is something that will be added in a future update.

            @Ralf-Zimmerningkat, why would a plain A2B route be interesting enough to track?

            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.

              I want to track and record all rides when the app is running.
              There can always be interesting routes.

                    Because of the winterseason it has been a while i used MRA.
                    Last season i've noticed a few times that the tracklog did not start when selecting a route direct in Android Auto.

                    When start a route on the phone and then connect to Android Auto. The tracklog works fine.

                    BTW
                    I'm talking about preplanned routes, not A to B

                    (I use MRA Next only on Android Auto. Every comment, suggestion, etc will be based on my usage with Android Auto)

                      @M-Schrijver thanks, I had a support ticket about this a while ago. Should all be working as intended. If not, let me know.

                        @Adrian-Avram Yes! We tend to keep CarPlay and Android Auto in sync.
                        I just don't feel like constantly mentioning both 😆

                          Sometimes i just go out for a ride (not even a planned route or a simple A-to-B roite, jujst riding) and find myself ending up on a stretch of road which looks very interesting but can't exactly remember were it was afterwards. So tracklogging a route would be very helpful to find it back!

                          I had a try this korning when i drove to my work and automatic tracklog will not start by just a plain A to B route.

                          And what's the big deal not having it tracked automaticaaly? It's just 1 push on a button to have tracklogging working...

                            I have a support ticket still open for this. When I start the route the tracking will only start when you start the route on your phone. Not when you open it on AA. When you have a stop and resume your route, you again have to open the app first before the tracking resumes. Also when you, during the stop, didn't pause the app on your phone.

                                @Con-Hennekens I'm aware of that all!

                                As I already mentioned, I use tracking more to trace back where I have been and where all those beautiful roads can be found so that I can later put it all back into 1 big route.

                                      @KeesV, in the app-menu: "Navigation settings - Functional - Start tracklog automatically" needs te be enabled. After that, tracking of routes and tracks should be started automatically. For straight A to B routes, tracklog will not be started automatically, because those are considered not scenic and therefore not interesting enough for tracking.

                                      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.

                                        I can confirm that there seems to be an issue when running the app completely without ever starting the app.

                                        We will be fixing this issue. However, there currently is a more pressing issue 🙂
