Another Failed trip...UHG

@D-Griffin i've looked at the route.
You got the Here map to navigate OK
Waypoints placed OK
There shouldn't be any problem according to the route.
Maybe you could serve y the crash Log, holding on to the version number in your account and then send that to the helpdesk.
Are you Navigating online or offline
You could try to change that
I see that you use the motorcycle profile. That shouldn't be a problem but you could try the car profile.
In your case I would send in the crash Log@Marinus-van-Deudekom I have done with online and offline, no difference. When I first started on MRA yes I screwd a lot of routes up. But with help and guidance from all of you, I feel I have the route planning down pretty good. I am just frustrated!! When you put an android and an iPhone together on the same bike, same route and you get 2 different results, that to me is an issue with the android/iPhone platform communicating with the program, this is just my opinion. I will reach out to the help desk see if they have any suggestions, I hate 2 give up on a good product, however what I thought was gonna make my bike so much more fun to ride has done the direct opposite!!!

@D-Griffin just to be shure, you use just the phones and no secundairy screen.
In my case it doesnβt matter if I use an Android phone, iPad or Android tablet, the result is always the same. So why wouldnβt it in your case. Beats me and I hope the helpdesk can help you out -
I have never seen or even heard of the issues you describe. The app has always worked very well for me. I hope hou can find a solution.

Me to! Im so frustrated with this thing!! But dont want to throw in the towel because I feel it has great potential!!!
-
Ticket went in tonight...see what happens.....Thank you all who responded and had feedback for me, I really do appreciate it and I do want to see this product get me from point A to point B with minimal issues!!!!

@D-Griffin, In my view there is nothing wrong with that route, and I cannot think of anything being wrong with a route that would result in what you describe. To be honest I never heard of anything like it, at least not in any version that starts with a 4.x.x. Since you are using a Samsung S25, your version cannot be older than that I suppose?
The app asks for "exact location" permissions at first start. Did you by any chance decline that? Please check the location permissions on the app, from within the Android system settings.

Con, I have never seen this.....When I plan a route I put waypoint #1 a long way away from the start of the route. I have never been asked permission or declined it. If you look at my route my start is away from where we leave. I do this because who knows with the phones what's gonna happen, so I give a bit of a buffer zone, to make sure all is on and working. In this case Sunday morning my 1st waypoint is a good mile away from where we started, and it just never would find the route from the time we left the hotel. Once past waypoint #1 it finally caught up, but just long enough to start veering off route. I pulled over got on Google maps (which had close to same route planned in MRA) we all followed that for 3.5 hours with ZERO map issues.....Got to lunch ate, and did another 4.5 hours home with ZERO Google map issues, no stress and actually liked to be on my bike! No veering off route, no icon going so far off of route that my planned route leaves my screen leaving me totally lost. Con forgive my shortness! I understand you are here helping and I greatly appreciate you and your time. However on my bike sometimes leading 10-15 riders and MRA fails......not cool. I just want someone who programs/edits or what ever this MRA to take me serious and help me out.....Ticket went in tonight, will see what happens. Thanks again for your help and your time, MRA is lucky to have you, and I hope in the near future I can be there helping new guys stumble thru!!!!

@D-Griffin, it sounds perfectly fine how you go about your route, that for sure is not the culprit. Now I understand that the phone keeps calculating a route to a point just a mile away? That seems to be a clear indication the app does not know where you are, just like with "veering of a route". That's very strange, since gMaps obviously works okay. That's why I still think it is a permission problem.
Please check this:
-
What is the version number of your app. To find this open the app, click on the profile icon in the top right and scroll to the bottom. The version number is there.
-
Close the app, and go into your android system settings. Goto Location, ensure it is enabled. In location permissions look for the MyRoute-app. Ensure permissions are enabled and always on. Also check if Exact location is enabled.
I am looking forward to your findings.
Also @Marinus-van-Deudekom his remark about a secondary screen is a valid one. His question means whether you are using an Android Auto compatible screen, instead of the app natively on your phone. If you do,
that could perhaps indicate a problem with the GPS built into the Android Auto device. -

As for the second screen I Bluetooth to a Android Auto/Car Play stereo. It Is a Soundstream V2 motorcycle radio. When the icon starts to veer, or take me off route, I click my phone screen on and the phone and the radio screen are doing the same thing. All the radio does is mirror my phone screen. The radio itself has no GPS built into it and is doing no navigating. I also have a Rokform case on my phone. I reached out to Samsung's help line and they suggested sometimes in very rare cases a phone case can affect GPS signal. Yesterday I took off the case, but I still had the same results with the icon veering off route.

@Con-Hennekens doing a little research here is what I found on MRA and the second pic down where the icon is off the route and in the lake is exactly what I am seeing on a regular basis.....And apparently others are too!!

@D-Griffin, Yes I know, but that was many versions ago, and the reason I asked for your version number
The radio itself has no GPS built into it and is doing no navigating.
I have been looking up your device:
https://motorcycleaudio.com/collections/harley-davidson-headunits/products/v2-headunit
and I learned that actually it DOES have built in GPS, and it DOES offer native Navigation through IGO Primo.What I would like to know is whether the MRA app also veers off while navigating without this Android Auto connection. I bet it does not
My Ford Sync3 has a very similar problem, which I mitigated like this:
Go into your Android Settings, apps, all apps, search for Android Auto, Permissions, Locations, deby location permissions to Android Auto. If you do this, the MRA app will fall back to the phone its location.
Please report back. I am very interested in your findings!

@Con-Hennekens
Out of interest, if one was to turn off location permissions in AA then surely MRA could not run in offline mode, or could it?? -

Offline or online, the Locations Service will fall back to the Phones GPS. GPS reception works independently from Cell network, or internet availability.

Thanks for replying. That did occur to me after posting but nice to have confirmation.

@Con-Hennekens Con the igo maps only use GPS when activated. yes ut has its own Nav on the radio, however not when i am using the MRA app. at that point the GPS on the radio is off and not in use. Yes I still have the veering off route issue if i don't use my radio. i have a local route near Lake Erie that goes off route everytime i go. ot will put the icon out in Lake Erie. i have been on this rpute many times on my bike and my truck. truck has no NAV or anything in it. so at that point im using jist my phone and it still goeas off course.

@Con-Hennekens here is,what I see in my settings

@Con-Hennekens here is,what I see in my settings
I dont see deby locations?
-
Do you mean....Deny locations? What does this do?, Will it still mirror on my screen on bike?

@D-Griffin I think @Con-Hennekens meant to change it to "don't allow".
-
Indeed: don't allow location permission to Android Auto.
Excuse me the typo -

@Con-Hennekens Con what is it I am doing here when not allowing location permission with Android Auto? Will it affect the Google maps? Will it affect my work truck which has NAV on it? I will try but I just want to understand what it is I am doing...thanks
