    I’ve been using mra online for years but this morning when I logged on and tried to use it, I couldn’t get the map to expand and contract as it should. When I tried to pinch the screen the frame around the map and the map both reacted. I played with it for a while and, suddenly the frame filled the whole screen and I couldn’t get no longer see the address bar and the app worked perfectly. Then I touched something and it went back to the same behavior. It’s driving me nuts. Any ideas?

    The problem with too many features is the app can become overly complicated. Auto skipping shaping points makes sense, having to manually skip Via points makes sense. I lead groups of between 3 and 8 riders on tour (Old friends) and put optional loops in the routes to accommodate the fact that as the number of riders in a group rises the time taken to complete a route extends. I prefer to deliberately skip Via points on the optional Loops, rather than just drive past them. Making the app more complicated is not the answer. The simpler it can be while carrying out its principle function (following a route) the better. Same goes for the Route planner. I use OSMand+ sometimes for motorcycle navigation and sometimes for Hillwalking and its good but there is a much steeper learning curve than MyRoute app Navigation Next. The route planner is simple and easy to use, particularly to change routes while on tour, this is a strength. I am also a proficient Basecamp user and still use a number of Zumo's but mainly now for tracks and waypoints and POI's I need proximity alerts for. Would it be good to all these features to the route planner?? I'm not sure as it would add complication for features maybe not many would use. Doing a little testing the other day. You can see the the screen on my Garmin Zumo XT has the Skip Via point Icon on it. Garmin Gps's will auto skip shaping points but not Via points......so the same behaviour as MyRoute app. [image: 1784039000554-12bed6b0-c136-4a52-9a5e-ad391f86cd14-image.jpeg]

    @b0hd1 Thanks very much - it's what I suspected. Think I'm going to pay up for a Carpe Iter Caretta - very expensive, but a solution that will work as I actually want.
