The discussion for all new features in Beta should be done here, to have together in one place all opinions.
I announced its removal near two months ago, due to many complaints, without responses.
We cannot have mandatory the âRoute missedâ message as several donât like it (or their GPS causes troubles). And filling the app with another on/off option is also not very intuitive.
A thought is that when the new (repeated) off route notification is off, then the âRoute missedâ is announced once.
Then you would have the old behavior of a mandatory acoustic notification.
If that is possible the other way:
More than 60s = âRoute missedâ is announced once.
Avoid roadblock tested successfully. Both 500m and 100m behaved as expected. Stopped just before a crossroads and then activated avoid roadblock, the detour functioned perfectly in both cases by choosing the correct other branch at the intersection.
I wonât use that feature, besides a one time info that I am off route.
So leave it as it is (1s - 60s), unless someone who would use that feature has a better idea.
I donât like the idea of a repeating signal unless it has the ability to tell something new.
New in this context could be some kind of info about:
have tested the ânext unvisited waypointâ option on a 410km round trip⌠works very well⌠thankfully I can use Kurviger again as default nav system
⌠at least as long as internet connection is available⌠which is often goods in short supply in Hunsrßck-Eifel area⌠what about a new option to automatically use a simple shortest-way re-calculation when there is no internet connection when beeing off route?
Hi, the Voice guidance after instruction points feature definitely needs some more fine tuning.
It does not work nicely when turn instructions are following in a rapid sequence.
E.g. here near WP1 I got âturn rightâ âturn leftâ messages in rapid sequence.
Feels like it was playing the text of the already passed instruction mixed with the new instruction.
In other situations I got messages like âin 40m turn leftâ, followed by âturn leftâ
IMO the âin 40mâ instruction shouldnât be played.
I could provide more examples if that would help.
My settings were:
after instruction point
2km
1km
300m
Kalman-Filter was on.
One tuning measurement could be to wait a bit longer before playing the next instruction, to be sure that the intersection has been passed safely.
When you return back to the route V1.10.2 doesnât trigger any voice instructions at this point.
It might even skip the next turn instruction if it is too close.
I think this is OK.
Pre V1.10 versions immediately triggered the next turn instruction, even slightly before you were back on route, which was often misleading because it was too early.
Maybe, in my test scenario I returned to a route point where Iâve already been.
I just did a few âleave the route and return backâ for testing purpose.
