New update! (4.4.1)

[Corjan Meijerink]

Hi everyone!

It has been 2 months since the last update. Now that the season is ending it's a nice moment to release a minor update. We are very happy with how the app (and the MyRoute-app platform in general) was a part of a lot of your adventures.

This update will be available in coming days.

Language updates
Thanks to @Chudy and @Krzysztofa our app now supports the Polish language! This is only the app, not the website. So if your app is in Polish, the website will probably be English (or whatever you selected).

Android language select
Since day one you could already select a different app language in iOS when accessing the iOS app settings. Now that's possible for Android too! Especially useful now we have Polish translations.

Note: only Android 13 and higher

iOS GPX import issue
Since an update from iOS the GPX import function of the app was broken
That's fixed again! You can now open any GPX file sent to you with our app again.

Recalculation improvements
Tweaking the recalculation behavior of the app is quite complex due to the vast variety of situations. Over the holiday season we received quite some reports that the app would excessively skip waypoints. In this version we deployed a new version of the waypoint skip algorithm.

Besides that we resolved an issue where sometimes recalculations in track navigation could get stuck.

What's next?
We are working on a major overhaul of the UI / UX of the app. We hope to start beta testing early September and aim for release in October!

Cheers,
Corjan

Hello Corjan, nice to improve further. Did you also had a chance to have a look to the laggy behavior of some Android phones? I had to switch back to 4.3.9 as 4.4.0 has been hardly usable.

@Thomas-Neumeyer also curious about the same thing ... To be honest it doesn't even matter. I started creating routes using the OSM map in the web planner and exporting to Osmand+ !
Just did a trip from Romania to Montenegro and back and works perfectly !

@Adrian-Avram @Thomas-Neumeyer We updated some engines that hopefully resolve the issue - curious to hear your feedback.
