[App] Preview to the new Kurviger App | Vorschau auf die neue Kurviger App

[hellsguenni]

Na, das ging ja schneller als erhofft .

Was ich mir wünsche ist ein Anleitung für ein Grundsetup der Navigationseinstellungen, mit dem ich direkt losfahren kann. Ich bin erst seit dieser Saison aktiver kurviger User und war am Anfang ein wenig genervt, wenn ich mir zuerst das komplette HowTo durchlesen muß, bevor ich starten kann. Ich hatte dann für mich sowas gebastelt, das hat Anfangs sehr geholfen. Auch gut waren die YT Videos - keep it stupid simple

Das Grundsetup sollte folgendes beinhalten:

• Anleitung zum Laden der offline Karten für die gewünschte Region (keine Ahnung, ob da auch wieder mit BRouter gearbeitet werden soll, falls ja dann bitte auch hier ein Grundsetup wählen, daß für die meisten Landstraßen funktioniert)
• eine Basiseinstellung für Zoomstufen bei der Navigation
• Vorauswahl der POIs (das ist soweit ich das sehen konnte schon sehr gut gelungen)
• grundlegende Navigationsfunktionen (Wegpunkt überspringen, Tankstelle oder anderes Zwischenziel unterwegs zufügen)
• Route aus der Cloud laden finde ich persönlich zwar nett, dennoch werde ich immer eine lokale Kopie der geplanten Route auf meinem Navi-Handy haben, falls man die ohne Netzabdeckung nochmal neu laden muß. Vielleicht eine Synchronisation mit einem lokalen Ordner innerhalb der App vorsehen?
• 3D Ansicht beim Navigieren unbedingt ermöglichen
• die Routeninformationen beim Navigieren sind wie schon beschrieben noch zu groß
• Kompassfunktion zur Kartenausrichtung wäre auch schön
• Entfernungen zum nächsten Wegpunkt/Ziel über toggle Funktion
  -…

Ich freue mich schon auf die nächsten Versionen, weiter so Männers

Hallo @Keith_Conger , es starten die beiden vorhandenen App Versionen nicht. Alles andere kann Dir @boldtrn beantworten. Ich bin auch nur Anwender von der WunderlinQ und den kurviger Apps.

Hi @Keith_Conger it does not launch the two existing app versions. Everything else @boldtrn can answer for you. I am also only a user of the WunderlinQ and the curvier apps.

Ich habe meine Touren immer direkt am Handy geplant. Ein Riesenvorteil.
Bei der neuen App nimmt die Einblendung von Start ,Ziel Wp. einen großen Teil des Bildschirms ein was das Planen erschwert. Ich weiß, dass man die Einblendung mit den Pfeil wegblenden kann, was aber umständlich ist, da nach dem Setzen eines Wp. wieder da.
Bei der “alten” App war bei der Planung keine “störende” Einblendung vorhanden.

Hi there, when can we expect an IOS version. I’m so anxious to try it !

[boldtrn]

@Keith_Conger

@boldtrn Is there a new launch scheme for the app?

I will double check the launch scheme for the new app and will come back to you.

Mein Wunsch wäre, dass solch eine Anleitung in Zukunft nicht mehr nötig ist. App installieren, Route planen, los fahren.

Zusätzlich sollte es natürlich noch die Möglichkeit geben, relevante Einstellungen zu ändern, damit sich die App so verhält wie man sich das wünscht, aber die Standard-Einstellungen sollten für den Großteil passen.

Once the Android app works as expected, we will start working towards an iOS version as well.

I just tried the new app for daily drive and everything worked fine.

• I would appreciate to have more details for next advertisement, for example Autobahn Number, Autobahn exit name…

• I would be also good to have more information if the route goes straight for ~10km but not all crossings are straight. So its not 100% clear where to go.

• If go to “Favourite” choose one → choose Destination it appears at starting point not destination. Would be good if the starting point is always Position except I choose a different Point.

• Features from the old app: Would it be possible to use the old app as base to take over some features to not start from the complete beginning? Or are you not allowed the take over the app from @devemux86

Thanks for your afford and time.

Have a look at the announcement and make your conclusions.
In short: The old Kurviger app (V1.x and V2.x) is based on cruiser app from devemux .

[Discontinued] Kurviger app

Kurviger app is reaching end of life by the end of the year. External and internal reasons with finances and resources. As no one offered a solution, it is discontinued from Google Play. Android apps are available for old owners on their Google Play (Google Play Help). Thank you all for the great time. Cruiser can import / export Kurviger routes. Development continues, you can find me on Cruiser forum.

That’s clear, but they worked somehow together. Devemux stopped the work so why its not possible that Robion continues the work?
I think the same happened in the past with " Motorplaner!" it was continued and optimized by Kurviger.

Well, “Motorplaner” stopped its (free) service.
As a service for its users, Kurviger offered a way to transfer your existing routes.
Cruiser is still continued, and has a subscription model for payment.

Okay it was just an idea to have as much as possible of the old functions available.

That was my idea too. I’ll use Cruiser GL until Kurviger V3 convinces me to switch back.
My Routes will be planned consequently in kurviger.de - no question about it!

While the copyright issue is understandable and indisputable, the appearance of the application or its functions are probably not reserved? So, the panels we love in the Kurviger app are the same as in Osmand, and the tour presentation is like in Locus…

With all due respect for work so far, can’t you (I guess that’s a question for @Patrick) just create something along the lines of the good-natured and over the years worked out Kurviger app?

Isn’t creating a completely new user interface reinventing the wheel? Of course I am thinking about the navigation module here, because the consistency of the routing module with the website is a good way to go.

I’m delighted with the Kurviger2, I installed the Kurviger3 but I haven’t used it because I don’t find it functional enough, I’ll try it later.

I’ve installed the Cruiser as well and I think that’s what I’ll be using until K3 convinces me.

I think all Kurviger app fans, including myself, would be happy to pay for something like a only-routing-online subscription that Cruiser app can use. But it would require - if I’m not mistaken - two gentlemen to get along in order to please thousands

[Keith_Conger]

@ToTo_GSA_Rider Launching the old Kurviger apps will be fixed in the next WunderLINQ app beta.

[zaphod_42]

@Ciutnik

something like a only-routing-online subscription that Cruiser app can use

Where is the problem?
No one has anything against planning with kurviger.de and navigating with another medium (TomTom, Garmin, BMW Navigator, smartphone [Kurviger App, OsmAnd+, Cruiser, etc.).
Cruiser allows me to perform my navigation as before. Therefore, I have a subscription since 02.11. - a “savings version” for only-routing-online makes little sense at 9.99 €. The planning function I will not use anyway - I haven’t used it in the Kurviger app either.

[Ciutnik]

@zaphod_42

The planning function I will not use anyway - I haven’t used it in the Kurviger app either.

Which is quite the opposite of what I do. I have never used a website to plan trips (although I am a Tourer). I’ve been doing it for years in an app on a Android 8" tablet, that I also use as a navigation device. That’s why the Kurviger app was perfect for me, and if Cruiser app could use Kurviger’s algorithm, I’d gladly use it.

Here’s the problem - having to choose between a great app or great routes. Of course, I do not exclude that someday the new v3 application will reach the v2 level, then there will be no problem, but for now I am full of fears.

Hallo zusammen, so habe die Navigation eben im Auto getestet. Wo kann ich in der App die Lautstärke anpassen? Medien Lautstärke war auf höchster Lautstärke. Suche ich gerade eine Funktion die noch kommt?

Hello everyone, so have just tested the navigation in the car. Where can I adjust the volume in the app? Media volume was at the highest volume. Am I just looking for a function that is yet to come?
