    @Marinus-van-Deudekom I think that the biggest improvement that could be made would be to make the buttons larger that we push regularly. That's one thing that the DMD2 software does very well.

    I have the Carpe Iter remote ordered and it should be here today or tomorrow so I'll report back as to how that works with the DMD tablet. I've heard mixed reviews but I have to try it for myself! 🙂

    @Steve-Jarrell hi @Steve-Jarrell for the tablet space is issue at all but I van imagine that it would be different dit the users of a phone. But lets ask the expert opinion of @Corjan-Meijerink and see if he has a solution

      Will do.

      I'd recommend @Corjan-Meijerink take a look at the map view in the DMD2 app for some ideas on the interface. DMD2 is sorely limited in a lot of its features, but I do like some of its UI functionality. For off-road riding it would no doubt be a great app.... for on-road touring, it's extremely limited currently.

      I'll be honest... I was very surprised and pleased to see how well the MRA app performs on the Android platform and on the DMD-T865X tablet. I tried it on my iPhone using the Chigee device and in my opinion the Apple CarPlay interface is currently just too limited and the Chigee device is too small to be useful for my purposes.

      I'm sure the DMD tablet with the MRA app is going to be ideal for my use.

        DMD2 is very good for off road - while MyRoute-App is very good for on road. Both intends to limit their gaps.

        I believe, easiest would be, they should marry 😊

          hi @Steve-Jarrell for the tablet space is issue at all but I can imagine that it would be different for users of a phone.

          DMD has a clever automatism: the app detects, if it's running on a phone, or a tablet. Per example, there is a extra app to configure function of device- and remote hardware buttons. It will be detected automatically a phone has only 2 buttons, vice versa the tablet has 6. So, technically it's possible to arrange SW buttons on screen, depending at display size...

            It is... 😉
            Way too many and way too small buttons.

            I am just an enthusiastic MRA user, and hope you will be one too!

              @Steve-Jarrell Hi Steve
              I've got the exact same tablet and run MRA on it. The glove friendly part as I see has mostly to do with the DMD screen. You can use it with gloves on but it's not great. Therefore I'm considering buying a Silverfox H1+ to handle it. The only thing that's holding me back is the space on my Goldwing's handle bar

                      @Marinus-van-Deudekom The Carpe Iter controller works great for zooming in and out and panning left, right, up and down. It also brings up a handy menu for locking the screen, changing the brightness, changing the volume and other functions. It does not move around the MRA app's screen and allow you to directly control MRA, but overall I'm very pleased with it.
