Simulate navigation anywhere with fast forward / rewind and adjustable speed.

  • Play / Pause navigation simulation :play_or_pause_button:

  • Select simulation speed (tap speed panel)
  • Works nicely with App: Smooth movement

Available in “Settings | Navigation | Navigation mode”.

- Navigation: speed based voice guidance (Pro)

Allow speed to influence voice instructions timing (speak earlier when run).

Available in “Settings | Voice guidance | Speed”.

- Location: location marker / arrow appearance options

There have been reports, e.g. here or here, about location display problems in older devices, probably due to poor OpenGL drivers.

So I added a 2nd location appearance option available in new location settings.
It uses standard svg symbols instead of OpenGL advanced real time rendering.
It has all expected features like arrow size / tip, except (currently) custom color.

Available in “Settings | Location | Location appearance”.

- Location: show speed / altitude in follow location mode

Display speed and altitude panels also in follow location mode (besides navigation).

Available in “Settings | Location”.

Fluid map move / rotate / zoom animations in navigation & follow location.
Can be used alone or together with the Kalman filter.

Available in “Settings | Location | Smooth movement”.

Show map zoom level in (advanced) scale bar or (auto hidden) zoom buttons.

Thanks a lot for the update. I could like the smooth movement. I tried it yesterday on the bike with the latest version. For a car it may be sufficent, but for a motorbike it is too slow in alternating curves. Is there a technical way to make the map movement quicker especially in sharp or alternating curves, maybe based on the speed also?
If this is too complex, is there a way to indiviually make it quicker by a slider or factor setting?

GPS on Android devices usually does not update the location reports more often than 1 sec.

Smooth movement has a prediction time of 1 sec based on common GPS update interval.
So can never predict or animate location “wrong” longer than 1 sec.

Have you tried it combined with Kalman filter, if work better together?

Making it faster, animations would be quicker than GPS updates and movement not smooth.
Nevertheless like all features, it is not written in stone. I review everything for improvements. :slightly_smiling_face:

Yes, have used it with active Kalman filter, maybe I should try it without. But not today, it is raining here.
