"...troubles with getting that information onto the GPS device..."

As I tried to point out earlier - the departure or duration information isn't being exported from MRA in the GPX files - so if you want it in the GPS you have to enter it from the GPS front panel. (Or, use Basecamp to read the MRA file and generate a proper GPS file.)

As to why it's significant let me give you an example from last year's riding season - I was riding back to New Hampshire from the BMW Performance Center in South Carolina and wanted to have lunch with a friend on the outer banks of North Carolina. He had both selected the lunch spot and also the time to coordinate with his own schedule.

Building the route with predicted duration times at breakfast and fuel stops and setting the restaurant as the trip endpoint gave me a reading on the GPS screen as to my predicted arrival time. It was updated continuously - if I was ahead of schedule I knew it and if I was behind I knew it.

Hope this is clear and if you don't use the tools on your belt the same way I do, that's ok with me. 🙂

Hi Hans yes I have been told that's the case, thanks for your reply.

I have the Garmin Zumo XT.
There are 2 different options for the the XT
GPX1.2 (Route, Track, POI)
Using this GPX Type you will only see the VIA Points “Stops” on the Map.
The full route is available based on the Shaping Points but they are not shown on the XT Map.

GPX1.1 (Route, Track, POI) will display both the Via Points and Shaping points on the XT Map.

I have no idea on the Garmin Camper 890 but there are members and Admins on the Forum here that will be able to guide you on the correct GPX types to use for that device.

@herko-ter-horst Daarin heb je gelijk, door de weeks nog gewoon bereikbaar. Dan maar vrij nemen 😄

Hallo Bart, nee is niet mogelijk

@mtc-tet-club
Hi MTC-TET, we use the group function and events the same way with MTC-Zeilberg.
What you can do as a workaround, find the person who wants to participate in the event, check if they have routes or tracks that are public. If so, you can leave a comment in one of the routes or tracks.

@wim-o-0-0

Dan moet je even een route via de app gebruiken

@pad-0 said in MRA Navigation and downloaded maps.:

@con-hennekens Could the terrain, roads and traffic conditions we usually inhabit inform our varied navigation habits, perhaps?

I think your comparison of circumstances is quite correct. However I am living in the far south (as far as you can speak of that in the Netherlands 🙄 ) with German Eifel and Belgium Ardennes in less than an hour drive away. I have been riding for years without audible guidance, so I am probably more used to do without it than many others. But in my experience, the more unpredictable the road gets, the better it is to look at the map at your own chosen time. That gives you knowledge about the road ahead and prevents having to look at the screen when it is necessary to have eyes on the road. I ride in landscape mode, so I have better sight on side roads too.

@alan-hilton For most other devices from Garmin and TomTom you can use any of the GPX-options that includes a track and then make sure to use the track instead of the route.

@con-hennekens I have asked Sygic again about the route import. Here the answer:

Yes, this route import is in the plan for the development.
Although, we would like to ask for your patience, as we can't confirm when, or even promise it will be added to the app anytime soon.*

I do like the fact that a copy is made that is shared in an event.
And it does indeed take some getting used to.

With regard to making the track visible in MRA navigation, this may be included in further development.

@cristiano-repetti said in App navigator iOS: can not calculate route message:

Only these 2 software are able to do that, actually.

I would add: on condition that the navigator is stable, and makes full use of all the routeplanner features and vice versa.

In my opinion the TomTom desktop planner is quite limited.

@jack-van-tilburg thank you for your reply...I understand now..isn't technology wonderful.

@mtc-tet-club

Hello @MTC-TET-Club

https://forum.myrouteapp.com/topic/1730/mra-for-clubs-let-us-know

@sudolea Thanks. Yes, I saw and checked that option. It's not real intuitive. It will tell you there's a potential problem, but it doesn't give you hardly any indication of what the problem is or how to resolve it. I guess I'll have to watch a few more of the videos and read more of the manual. I'll figure out the basics.... somehow..... someday. 🙂

Thanks!

Steve

Okay folks, that works great.

@jack-van-tilburg I agree. It is usually a bad idea to work directly with your "historical" routes as the risk is high that you would unintentionaly change them.

Your approach is much safer.
