      @Cleo Make sure that your camera view is either Dynamic or North up.

        I did play with it today while driving. If i approach a juntion the zooming is reduced but my speed also. I do dynamic zooming but maybe i llike it more zoomed out on the junctions then the developers had in mind. So when i drive on the highway i like the zooming how it is but when nearing a junction on a highway i like more reduced zooming even if don't reduce my speed.

          @Cleo, I think I see what you mean... Is it about junctions where you go straight? Indeed in those cases there is no instruction to zoom-in upon, and usually also no speed reduction that triggers a zoom-in. This has caught me by surprise a few times, mostly in forest areas with equivalent intersections when you almost cannot see the intersections, but do have to give way to other traffic.

          I don't see why going straight on a crossroad is treated differently from going left or right. I made suggestions about that some time ago, but it was laughed away I am afraid.

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

                  This whole topic is everything where all other topics about auto-zoom where also about.

                  Autozoom should be speed dependend and also zooming in on traffic junctions.

                  An example:
                  https://youtu.be/vzLnBvtyRkg?si=VeMZkmHjI5LKw_uI&t=276
                  Starting from 4:35

                  This is how HereWeGo uses the autozoom on junctions.

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

                    I agree with you with this topic. It's highly appreciated to have an automated dynamic zoom; but it could be enhanced.
                    Sometimes, if there are double exits on major roads or highways - if zoom level isn't low (detailed) enough - you are on risk to take the wrong exit.
                    By "Murphy's Law" - if it was the wrong exit, you need to drive 50 Km until next exit, you can take for turn back. 😠

                    That's one of the reasons why I mounted a remote controller on handle bar. Now, it's easy to do zooming to the level I need - instantly πŸ˜‰

                    Nothing is impossible ;-)
