    As an Android user the Android Auto options for route guidance are minimal (MRA being one that actually works - mostly ok in my experience).

    Others out there - Sygic for example offer a much better interface (maps/smoother auto zoom etc) but does not work on a route where you're starting and finishing from home with route cross overs etc as it always finds the most direct route.

    My question is what are the short/medium and longer term AA updates being planned? One I'd like is the waypoint in the top right (as per the phone).

    Thanks,
    Andy

      @Andrew-Dickerson it all depends on Google and Apple. When they finaly give in, things could change. As long as they are in charge, nothing will happen

          I agree ! I also have Sygic installed, and it even shows a picture of the lane you are to follow when leaving the highway, directly on Android Auto.
          So to blame Google and Apple is just an excuse from my point of view. A lot of good things can added ....

            I don’t use Sygic myself. Just did a small Peek at there website. As far as I understand there route guidance does not cover a route like made with MRA, just simple A B driving. If you to compare it with that, be my guest. My €900 T865X covers it all but that’s a real navigation device.

              please don't kill me - but its's my conviction after many painful experiences:
              If you want to navigate - take a navigation device!
              AA devices aren't navigation devices. But things like T865-X are.

              Nothing is impossible ;-)
              In past: GARMIN Zumo 210->GARMIN Zumo 395->GARMIN XT=> now: DMD T865-X + MyRoute-App, LocusMaps, OsmAnd.
              In past: GARMIN MapSource ->GARMIN BaseCamp->Tyre->Kurviger->Calimoto=> now: MRA-Routplanner.
