New update! (4.3.1) Activity feed

[Corjan Meijerink]

Hi everyone!

Just a quick update while on holiday
The beta was completed successfully and therefore the 4.3.1 update will be released this week!

Now you'd think after the last smashing update, there would not be time for another major new feature. We managed!

Activity feed

We all do fun stuff in MRA! Creating routes and tracking our activities.
Yet, there was no way to find them in the app. To be honest, the activities in the website are in need of a massive update too...
So over the weekend, I wanted this to be added to the app!

There it is!
Just open the activity feed and see what you've been up to or show what your friends / the world has been doing. You can filter the list between tracks and routes (or both). If you only want to see activity from your country, easy as that too!

Update information screen

When opening a route or track immediately, you can also see the amount of likes and comments

Start route from nearest waypoint automatically

Yes, we have the "resume navigation" feature.
But some people dismiss the prompt or encounter other issues with CP / AA causing them to restart the route.

If this setting is enabled, the route will also be started from the nearest waypoint! This also applies to CP / AA so especially for those users ideal as you do not then need to skip waypoints one by one or get your phone out of your pocket.

Lock screen navigation

Rain an issue? Not anymore!
Simply lock your screen!
The orientation of the phone is then also fixed.

Tap the lock icon to unlock it again.

Minor changes

• Textual improvements to clarify the new sync features
• Some mandatory (short!) walkthroughs to explain new stuff
• Warning about road violations before starting route (when setting to check these is enabled)
• Fixed minor sync issues
• Increased memory limit to allow users with memory issues to store all their routes.

What's next

Joost will continue working on the stability of the app / resolving some bugs and Jarnick is getting up to speed with the technologies for the new website and researching some custom scenic routing algorithms! I'm currently driving in the Alps

Enjoy this update!

Notifications about social activity are not yet supported, this is something we truly wish to implement later on. If you have any fun suggestions, please do share!

Cheers,
Corjan

@Dirk-Kevin-K what is the confusion?

The “only” in the wrong place.
Maybe I just misunderstood “Activity Feed”.

@Corjan-Meijerink Unfortunately, it's currently raining cats and dogs here and in the Alps. It's even supposed to snow. Unfortunately, autumn is already knocking at the door. Drive carefully!
