    Hi All, I use MRA to create my route, import to my Nav 5, after which I convert track to trip and start my journey. However, when I miss let's a turn or junction, I get prompted to 're-calculate' but what I've seen is that it would, re-calculate a different route vs getting me to the point where I went off the route. Am I doing something wrong or that's how it should work?

      @Ali-Rehman This behaviour is well known. The reason for this is that a route generated from a track only has two waypoints, namely start and destination. Therefore, recalculation with the navigation system settings leads directly to the destination. To prevent this, recalculation should be switched off.

      Kindly regards

        @Reinhard-32 thanks for your feedback, essentially one needs to find a way to get back on track. Also have you used the MRA navigation app, I am thinking of using it as a back up. Does it behave the same way as Nav 5?

          @Ali-Rehman If you use a route instead of a track on your Nav 5 with via points and waypoints you won't have this problem.
