@Rob-Verhoeff Rob, Thanks! Like I said, I am aware of that option, but I was hoping for 1 click option....

Brian: Your XT2 experiment obviously didn't turn out well, and I perfectly get your frustration. You didn't mention having experience with previous Garmin devices, so I'm guessing this was your first (and probably last) experience. As I mentioned in my last post, the XT2 was Garmin's first serious attempt to connect their devices together. Architecturally, they try to attempt this using what they call the Explore DB that exists in their Server Cloud. The problem with Explore is that it can seriously alter a route. If you read Garmin forums, it's been the source of endless mind-numbing frustration. Most XT2 users fall into it without even knowing. During installation of the Garmin Tread app, your asked if you want to use external storage. On the surface, who would like that? Answer yes, and you go down a rat hole that many users regret. Knowing the history of Explore, I said NO when prompted in Tread. The only thing I use Tread for is Traffic/Weather alerts, and a really slick connection for my Phone to Headsets (I have both Cardo and Sena Helmets). That's it. Furthermore, I manually copy all my GPX routes (wired) directly from my computer to the GPX folder on my SD Card within the XT3. Of course, it's recalculated on the XT3 side, but no manipulation by any other layer. I'm guessing Explore is the source of having all your routes messed up. If you ever want to get a degree in everything Zumo, check out the following website: https://zumouserforums.co.uk/ It's a treasure chest of everything Zumo XT, and a must resource for anybody who owns a Zumo or is thinking about it.

@corjan-meijerink quick feedback and just wanted to say Wow. What a difference with stability compared to the previous build, which I used for a 10 day tour to Misano, Italy from the UK - had constant crashes on wireless CarPlay disconnect. The testing I have been doing has not had any crashes at all with this new build 480 and functions very well. I like the new search functions and they work well. Some of the vehicle type options could be changed slightly - toilets for motorcycle but there will always be a discussion for a future date. As an aside, when will the roadblock options and route type options be introduced into CarPlay? Top job. Thank you.

I don't have CP or AA, but the disadvantages would be from my point of view as far as I've noticed: Disadvantages CP / AA two devices, the display and the mobile phone Mobile phone gets very warm Skipping WP is not so easy Zooming is not so easy the CP / AA coupling causes problems no direct remote control with BT Type of operation wander over the display Display usually only horizontal Mobile phone advantages all MyRouteApp functions Control via BT keyboard directly possible Navigation map zoom +/- Skip WP Double click (DC) right Call menu / search function etc. Mobile phone horizontal and vertical My solution is an iPhone Xr in BMW Cradel with inductive charging, with the MyRouteApp with full function, the BT keyboard from Remotek One for direct zooming +/- and WP skip with DC right

The BMW Nav 5 can handle a maximum of 30 announcing waypoints (via points) per route, you can also include up to 125 unannounced shaping points between any two waypoints. You have probably exceeded the Via point (announced waypoint limit.). If you MUST have a route overview you'd probably be better exporting the master route as a Track to the Nav 5 and displaying it beneath the magenta line of your routes.

enjoy the country side. hope it isn't raining cats and dogs

Dit is SUPER!, ongelooflijk hoe jullie met zo'n kleine groep mensen dat voor elkaar krijgen. Voor allemaal super bedankt en in dit geval Cor-Jan

Ik ben niet meer te helpen, ik ben reddeloos verloren

@Apatrida-2-0 Cuando lo uses, no querrás cambiar. Es el mejor planificador y conjuntamente con su navegador, no tiene rival. Ya hace tiempo que lo uso y ni siquiera exporto los GPX para tenerlos por si he de usar otro navegador... porque no lo he necesitado (por ahora). Saludos, y nos vemos en la carretera (perdon @b0hd1 por el plagio )

@Edwin_M Thank you for sharing our Tool Edwin! Good to hear you like it.

@Lynchy67 It is on the list for major maintenance of the website, just like being able to export multiple routes in one go. Please be patient.

@Garry-Davis exactly, that would have been my second advice, but you are one step ahead. You can choose your beloved app, to count a route to the petrolstation

Hi ! So, the bad news is that Transfagarasan is still closed for now, but it should be opened in the next two weeks. You can check the live cam from time to time: https://www.roxy-world.ro/webcam-transfagarasan Good news is that Transalpina was opened about 5 days ago, some of my friends went there already and confirmed this. Enjoy Romania !
