Navigate along a track?

Chera Bekker

Will it be possible in future to navigate along a track? OSMANT has this feature.

@Chera-Bekker Track navigation unfortunately won’t be supported in the near future. Converting the track to a route will allow you to navigate it.

It's a shame because there are more and more tracks available on the web.

@Alain-Spronck You can easily create a route from a track with MRA. In addition you can check the route/track before use and it prevents you from bad created tracks.
I don’t need track navigation on a motorcycle.

@Reinhard-32 My experience with the TomTom Rider is that a combination of tracks and routes work very well. I often use the navigate along a track feature to make sure that I am riding exactly the route that I (or somebody else) has planned and it doesn't get hijacked by a "better" route decision by the navigation software.

And my experience with translating tracks into routes has been spotty. Sometimes it works very well but other times It takes a lot of manual labour to get the route right. Especially when working with tracks that go partly of the paved road into trails. But that is a subject for another discussion.

To add to my previous post:

I use the TomTom route functionality mostly to make a detour to the nearest fuel station or to navigate around a road closure.
