MRA Nav App suitability for off road use

[David Martin Sandilands]

Im considering the Nav app addon to use for on and off road use, and have a few questions:

1 Can you load and follow GPX files of an off route (Like TET) and follow the route off road?

2. Can you log/record a route save as GPX route then follow it at a later date?

3. An MRA planning advice, can I plan an off route on the MRA planner?

Any advice is welcome.

Thx

I may be wrong but I would say "NO".

I trail ride, as well as road riding, and I have tried to load trails onto MRA without success.
For me Basecamp is far superior for trails/off road, but MRA is now my default for road riding.

I would say the same.

MRA is excellent for on-road, but there are better alternatives for off-road. I recommend ADVHub; it is primarily intended to work with DMD2 (navigation app) and is currently in beta.

You can request access via the DMD2 discord server: https://www.drivemodedashboard.com/forums/topic/dmd2-discord-server/

Let me know if you need assistance to get this set up.

@richard-3v Thank you, it’s as I thought, MRA need to up their game, as I use a tomtom the MRA nav os pointless for me

A TomTom Rider is also Not suitability for off road use.

@David-Martin-Sandilands Use Kurviger.de for creating the GPX and load the <gpx in My-Route.

@Jörgen Exactly as I have a Tomtom rider and why I’m looking at alternatives.

@Ton-Machielsen
Kurviger for off-road? Are you sure?

[Ton Machielsen]

@Martin-Wilcke That’s what I do…

@Ton-Machielsen
To recap: Your workflow is to create off-road routes/tracks with Kurviger and navigate them with MRA NN? That sounds super interesting!
Can you please share one of these as an example? I'm on MRA and Kurviger, both platforms will do.
