Minimum tablet requirements for MyRoute App

[Makro]

For those using Samsung like me, if anyone should be interested, then split screen can be enabled using finger draw.

But also in another way: open the list of recent apps, click the app icon and select the split screen option.

This may or may not work on Oukitel

@Jörgen Thank you, it works!

@Jörgen I have just bought RT3 pro, how to get split screen, could you advice me?

Hi, I ask you a favor, could you give me the measurements of the screen and the total size? H, L, in cm? Thank you very much, I want to take it too but I have to see if it fits under the windshield.

Very kind, thank you!
On amazon they give exaggerated measurements.. I think I'll take it immediately.

[Stanisław]

@Gaetano-9 I can confirm these values from the link, just measured manually

[Gaetano 9]

Ok.. took measurements... The Pad is too big, it doesn't fit under the windshield and in any case for a motorbike I don't find it very proportionate. I opted for a 6.6" Rugged Smartphone, definitely better and highly visible. It's also easier to find brackets. After all, on a motorbike, we go to look at the world and not at a screen.

I will definitely have fewer problems with My Route on my motorbike.

@Jörgen what kind of mount are you using ? Thanks !

@Adrian-Avram a self made DIY.

@Lee-Parker-1 Hi Lee,
I'm driving with a TFT Carpuride W702B.
It has a lot of nits, is waterproof, and can absorb vibrations.
This TFT screen has built-in Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and works perfectly in combination with MRA.

[Gaetano 9]

Here is my final configuration. Instead of the Zumo I put this cell phone, so I eliminated Android Auto that with MyRoute, on a motorcycle, was not the best. Now MRA is perfect.

[Jörgen]

@Gaetano-9 Which phone do you use now?

[Gaetano 9]

@Jörgen ... I took this one, "OUKITEL G1", without too many expectations but very satisfying. The resolution is not pushed and allows me to use gloves without any problems

[Con Hennekens]

@Gaetano-9, An Oukitel G2 could be the follow-up of my CAT, but I am really thrown off by marketeer lies like this:

It obviously has just only 4GB of RAM... It is like saying: "the battery is 12000mAh (2000 on board + 10000 in your powerbank)"
(Can't find the puking smiley)

[Gaetano 9]

@Con-Hennekens ... you can find everything on the market, I searched real sites for information and in the end I chose the G1, knowing that it costs little and I can't expect too much. But reading the reviews on Amazon I noticed a certain coherence and so I acted. When it arrived I tried everything and if it didn't satisfy me I would have returned it. The advantage of Amazon is that if it doesn't satisfy you you send it back and you don't lose your money. what can I tell you... I'm satisfied with the G1 and I can finally manage MRA in the best way easily even on the motorcycle. find out about the G1 which seems better than the G2

[Marinus van Deudekom]

@Con-Hennekens It would be helpfull if they were to put in the spec of the screen. HD+ Display isn't very helpfull. Sating how many nits it is makes it objective. Then you can decide wether or not it is good. For a minimun of 1000 nits or otrherwise it's of lesser use

[Con Hennekens]

@Gaetano-9, indeed... I falsly assumed the G2 would be the successor of the G1 . The G1 has more (real) memory and a bigger battery (and probably a much better camera setup which is of no concern if you dedicate the device to Navigation).

That's a harsh conclusion ;-). Many people have been using older Zumo's that also have about 500 Nits brightness. My CAT reaches about 600 Nits. It is doable, though not ideal. The Oukitels have not enough nits to my liking indeed (the G1 has 400...).

[Jörgen]

I'm also surprised that the brightness (or nits) is so important. As you can see on my photo (one page before), the display is still bright enough even in sunny weather. Even with sunglasses I can still see everything from MRA. So I don't need 1000 nits, I get a tan from the sun
@Marinus have a look at the devices in the sun and don't believe everything that is written there.

[Gaetano 9]

@Con-Hennekens He had deceived me too, then I thought that the best is always number 1
o give you a practical example, today I surfed on my motorbike for 4 hours and the battery dropped by only 20%.. with the screen at maximum and Spotify blasting at full blast!
