New beta! v4.1.3 (308)
-
Good evening all!
It's time for a new beta! It's packed with nice new features and improvements. We expect it to be available somewhere tomorrow.
CarPlay / Android Auto changes
There are quite come nice changes for these platforms!Route library
Finally! One of the most anticipated changes. Directly load any of your routes from CarPlay / Android Auto!Speeding
When exceeding the speed limit - this will now be visible tooResume navigation & skip waypoint
The resume navigation prompt has been improved and when skipping a waypoint, we ask you to confirm and we show the number of the waypoint that will be skipped!More settings!
As you all enjoy settings, we added some more!
You can change the displayed arrival time as you can do in the app too. Now you can toggle between displaying duration / distance to the end / next waypoint / next viapoint.You can also change the camera orientation between the available modes!
Common changes
As we also changed some general things the app, these are listed below!North-up
We already had the dynamic and topdown camera mode. Now we added a north-up mode where the camera is fixed north. This allows you to navigate using the orientation that matches that of a traditional map!Simply tap the compass as you are used to in order to cycle through these modes. We remember the last choice you made so you never have to tap the button again once you selected the mode you like
All modes are available in CarPlay / Android Auto too!
Display search results on map home screen
When searching for things we wouldn't display them on the map in the home screen. Now we do!Short tap a displayed icon to display the name, long press it to navigate to that item.
Configuration options auto zoom
We would automatically zoom out when you were driving faster or when the next instruction was farther away. Most of you enjoyed this but some did not. We decided that it's up to you how it works!- Off: we do nothing extra
- Speed icon: based on speed slightly less zoom
- Instruction icon: based on next instruction distance less zoom
- On: we use both! This was default like it was
The difference can be observed here:
Major details
- Solved white screen (map loading issue) + crash! (rare issue)
- Improved position delay on all Android devices!
Minor stuff
- Improved waypoint skip algorithm and fixed an issue causing it to skip large sections unintended.
- Improved algorithm that places stops (such as fuel stations) between your waypoints
- Added extra Carpe Iter controller configuration option
- More little tweaks
- General stability
Quite a long list! Hope you enjoy all of it!
Have great week and looking forward to your feedback.
I'm heading to Scotland next week to do some "testing"What's next
In my absence development will continue to support editing / creating routes directly in the app!Cheers,
Corjan -
@Corjan-Meijerink thnx for the long list of nice features. Enjoy your holiday weekend!
-
@Corjan-Meijerink well done!
-
@Corjan-Meijerink Deeply impressed again by the tremendous amount of work done by the team. Wow.
-
@Corjan-Meijerink
thank you lot of good things more, like to try it on my test route to the gym one file, back home (with the actuall skipped, not announced, but requested by setting SP and Via 5-7) the other file.
May best thing is hopefully now to see in CarPlay clear distances to next WP, Via , not only the final target.Is there the opportunity to skip it at the ETA Line on the bottom of the Display or only one fix mode via setting screen und jump to setting all the time for the information you lik to see?

IOS downloaded automatically from TestFlight

Any one else voor the sameNot at my iPhone, but what I did, after reading such recommendation. I delete the previous App. May you do it in the same way?

@Peter-Schiefer
To answer my question myself.
Just the first Test.
You can change the ETA Information on the bottom left in CarPlay by pressing the Infofield for this quick at the bottom on the iPhone. The Icon flag, arrow or hand in the corner presents you what is selected and with the Info now on CarPlay. An acceptable compromise in a Car if your phone is somewhat near to the Dashboard, in reach to tap but not for viewing. In most cases for longer Trips such fixing of the phone is necessary for charging the battery.
On bikes perhaps with additional CP/AA Screens and the Smartphone in a box or jacket not handable. -
@Peter-Schiefer You can change this directly from CarPlay too, simply open the settings there
See screenshots in this post. -
309 is coming your way (very minor changes)
Mostly algorithmic improvements. -

See screenshots in this post.Corjan, I know and I had seen and test it, but you need some taps more.
First tap on the screen somewhere. The headline open.
Tap setting, tap ETA, select what you like to see, tap close to come back to your map.
What I found is in the condition I described, the phone is somewhere close at the dashbord but not direct in view for battery charging, the quicker way.
For for those who like this way. -
@Peter-Schiefer That's correct
The setting syncs both ways! -
Hallo Corjan, my problem not annoucing 2 shaping points and a viapoint on my way back from the Gym continues with 308.
Everything works fine with the 8 WP on the way to the Gym, on the way home not.
For areas planing tours not knowing where I am a reliable system is necessary.
I canโ t find the cause for this issue.
May how we can solve it.
See my pictures at 305 forum -
Great news, thanks! It would be nice to be able to move the search panel down and see the full screen map with the selected POI type. Now I can see it only on a half screen and it disappears when I move the search panel down.
POI are displayed along the route near my localtion? -
@Peter-Schiefer yes on my iPad it is fast. Deleting the app Will result in lossing thรฉ settings, favourites ets.
Maybe itโs a flaw in 308 and could be solved by @Corjan-Meijerink
