Well.... yes, we all do things differently and that's just fine with me! MRA crew is working very hard to offer features and keep Tom Tom users, Garmin users and MRA users happy, and that's all great as well. But to keep different people happy and let them have a CHOICE of using their preferred way without jumping thru hoops is also a great approach. Of course, there are limitations form various areas outside the MRA and some within the MRA world. That's expected too. What I started this thread for is to maybe encourage MRA to offer that simple choice. I plan the route the way I want it, place the waypoints according to MY plan, I put the names and the Notes that make sense to ME... So, MRA please let me be me in this particular respect and let ME choose what I want announced. I listen to the music a lot and every announcement cuts it out, so I DO want to hear the upcoming attraction or a fearure that I degsignated as important, not EVERYTHING or NOTHING when we talk about SHAPING POINTS. Thank you all for your great thoughts and effort to answer and dig into my suggestion! It's great that we have such an active forum and such a smart croud! I promote MRA in my Club and have I think 15 members get the Gold level membership at this point. I give classes on MRA for my Club members and guests. So I am asked A LOT of questions, especially from members who really digging in, learning and using it every day. And I love it!

@Bouke-Ent je kan van alles aan en uit zetten dus waarom niet de keuze met verkeersinfo of track zoals jij stelt. Ik vind het nogal vreemd en vervelend eerst een paar km richting een afgesloten weg te rijden en vervolgens zelf er iets omheen moet gaan verzinnen. In NL red ik dat wel maar buitenland niet. Er zit een optie voor in het menu maar daat reageert ie niet op. Deze afsluitihg zou geen alternatief zijn maar die is er zeker wel. Andere afsluitingen geeft hij deze waarschuwing niet maar ook daar moet je dan eerst voor staan. Het heeft totaal geen nut om eerst naar een afsluiting te rijden en daar te zelf een route omheen te verzinnen. Je moet er sowieso omheen dus waarom dan niet gelijk vanuit je navigatie laten omrekenen zodat je niet eerst naar een afsluiting rijdt maar gewoon lekker door kan toeren?

@Corjan-Meijerink, while I agree with you, I must say that following your own logic it is very strange to be able to sync individual routes... If syncing individual routes is a sensible feature, syncing individual folders also is, for the same reasons. If I am not mistaken, syncing folders was actually possible at the introduction of the the sync feature.

@Herman-Veldhuizen said: MRA should in my opinion think about offering some things as addons or have multiple types of apps in the store, all sharing the same core inside. In general I don't think the audience would appreciate in-app costs. I do understand what you say in favor of a more branche oriented app. But to be honest I think the MRA company is too small for that. Who knows, this might change in the future

In the online routeplanner "Windows Explorer" layout you can easily rename routes by clicking on the pencil button. [image: 1784009017270-165b4858-451b-466b-97ff-2c709e731b4e-image.jpeg]

@Sjoerd-Spieker My current solution is to add the routedistance to every route name. IMO this is very good practice especially if you share routes with friends or other riders who use different navigation systems When they load the route they can very easily see if their navigation system has correctly calculated the route by comparing their navigations systems calculated mileage to the mileage in the file name I still add the mileage to my route names as a check that the MRA app is actually loading & calculating the route I planned with the MRA web planner! IMO on a 6" phone screen there is not enough space for any additional columns for mileage or time & certainly not for both

It's on the wishlist

Just tested in the V5.2.1 Beta, just goes [image: 1783797423112-img_0234.jpeg]

That worked really well, thank you very much for that detailed instructions!

@Warner-1-0 said: So this is the first scenic route that Kurviger makes from A to B. I now want to make the route go via the dunes road just north of Noordwijk so I zoom in on the map to that road and tap it. Then Kurviger askes me what type of point I want to add here. By the way, you can do this just as easily in the MRA app. Open the app Open the MRA route planner Enter your start and destination Use the map zoom or the search function to select the new route and manually set a waypoint on the road you’d prefer to take. To change the type of point, tap on it and choose whether it should be a ‘Via’ or a ‘Shaping’ point. Please note that start and destination points are always ‘Via’ points (hand icon)

@Lenny-O Yes, that’s right, the microphone really is very short. As I wear glasses, I have to bend the microphone to one side every time I put the helmet on, otherwise it gets caught on my glasses. Perhaps I’ll write to Sena about this as well… thanks for this hint.

@stuart-marritt try tedt it but not working

@superg lees nog even, wat ik geschreven heb.

Ja, dit zijn ook mijn ervaringen sinds de laatste update. Inmiddels een veelvoud aan routes gereden en geen problemen gehad. Ook niet meer bij afwijkingen van de routes of stops.

it would also be nice if the spoken name didn't 'spell' out the entire number for roads that contain 3+ numbers. For example, in Texas, there are 'Farm to Market Roads' that are generally 4 numbers long - ie: FM2920. It gets announced as "FM two thousand nine hundred and twenty" - takes way long to say that than it does to read. Not sure if this is a MRA or HERE thing. EVERY other nav app says it as "FM twenty nine twenty"

Ja, dat lijkt mij een zinvolle uitbreiding voor zover dit mogelijk zou zijn.

@Brian-Martin Not sure why you’re not seeing the navigation menu (3 dots) I have just added a place name in the search bar, selected the Navigate button and the navigation menu (3 dots) was available to use. [image: 1782940294917-img_6069.png]

@Corjan-Meijerink thanks.
