    In the Android app, I set the audio language to English.
    Afterwards I select a route or Favorite and start navigation.
    To my surprise, the app voice talking does not match the previously selected voice. In fact it's not even a native English speaker.

    I have repeated this with different English voices, but not once was the selected voice used for navigation.

    Best regards, Makro

        I have the same problem. Oneplus 12. Voice engine is Google.Android which is the only TTS engine Avaliable.

        I set mine to Australian English and it defaults back to British English which I don't mind but it isn't working correctly.

          I have two engines available, a Google and a Samsung. Switching between them does not solve it, so I don't think it's related to the speech engine.

          BTW, same result using my Samsung Active tab 3 and my Samsung Galaxy s24+.

            @Makro use the Google Android engine. Can you choose a deferent cvoice overthere?

              Yes I tried various voices with both the Google and the Samsung engine. All my efforts are ignored.

              Another bug is that the app writes in Dutch instead of English, but that's a minor issue, not related to the voice issue.

                @Makro I think you’ve done the wright steps. Maybe @Corjan-Meijerink can something smart about your problem

                    @Leike-Lodiers, I have been mentioning this before, also in our test group, but got no response. So I thought is was my phone's problem. I think the voice settings are not honored anymore since some versions, and the app defaults to the system voice. @Corjan-Meijerink?

                    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.

                        Issue is solved in the 4.3.9 update 🙂
