Next: Suggestion - Skip button on Navigation front page

[UltraStar]

@Nick-Carthew I just observed something funny. I have started a route (I was by the waypoint 1.) For the heck of it, I have pressed Skip waypoint button. The popup window asked if I want to skip waypoint 3? Strange; it is the same thing that happened to me before, I could not skip the point.

Also, after I have stopped the navigation, the application was still running, I am guessing using a GPS (Blue highlight of the time on the iPhone 11P in the top-left corner.) (?!)
I got read of it restarting the navigation and terminating it again.

Hi @UltraStar This is way beyond my pay scale. I think we need @Corjan-Meijerink to see and answer this.
Thanks for taking the time to share your findings.

@Nick-Carthew Nu jullie het toch hebben over skip button. Zou het niet mogelijk zijn een keuze te laten of je het route punt wil overslaan of verwijderen uit de route.

Vb: ik wens een bestaande route te rijden en voor vertrek wens ik een lus af te snijden omdat het weer niet zo gunstig is. Als ik dat nu doe en ik skip in een route punt 7,8 en 9 dan wordt de route herberkent vanaf mijn huidige locatie. Dat wil ik niet want ik wens wel route punt 1,2,3,4,5 en 6 te passeren. Dikke proficiat aan het hele MRA team , jullie leveren bijna op maat en gebruiksvriendelijk.

@Alderweireld-Rudi-0 That’s a great suggestion that I’m sure will be considered. Thanks

[Corjan Meijerink]

Will indeed consider it

@Nick-Carthew I think I have read somewhere that the time to the waypoint might be turned off. I have not tried it yet. It would be a good option though, When I create a route, I always use lot of shaping points; I do not want to play by chance and let the navigator, whichever it is, alter my route. So, the distance to the next point is irrelevant for me. I like the selection on the bottom giving me different option.
If I turn off the icon display at the top-right corner, the only option for me would be the long press on the point and start the route from here (that option I would leave for the time when I am parked, I would not want to fiddle with it while riding a bike,) or opening the Setting menu to quickly skip waypoint; in this case I would definitely like the Skip waypoint button to be readily available, not buried somewhere down.
I've got to play with it more to see what is more comfortable, and quick, while riding.
Thanks a lot for your help.

As UltraStar writes, I also use many waypoints. It is irrelevant that the APP gives not only visual information but also voice information. Giving information on the arrival of the stage points (hard points) would be much more useful and pleasant.

@Alain-Spronck I would also much appreciate that option.

@UltraStar Maybe easy way to go from navigation to route planner with current route to edit it somehow (deleting points, adding new, changing route type etc), and then starting navigating at new by one click would be good solution?

[UltraStar]

@Stanisław Actually, I have tried to do that on one of my rides. I got stuck somewhere bypassing the WPs, and I was trying to get to edit (in the middle of the ride) to alter the route. Well, it did not work (I thought it will be implemented in the beta )
to do it I would have to delete all the WPs until my current location. I did not want to do that because I knew the route will be saved like that, and I will have to recreate the whole route again from the beginning later on.
I like the suggestion!

@Nick-Carthew that's a nice option. works great if you have to restart a navigation half way through the route.
