Problem: Scenic routing ignore setup for avoiding motorways

[TomOnTour]

Hi there,
as we had perfect weather here in Cologne today, I “opened” my 2026 season
The idea was just to take a quick trip to the “Biker Ranch” in the Eifel region. So, I started the app, selected my favorite “Biker Ranch,” chose a curvy profile, and excluded motorways. Ready to go!
Unfortunately, it didn’t work out as planned:
The app decided to route me via a motorway for more than 20 km, which was a bit unexpected.
So, here’s my question:
How could the app route me over such a long stretch of motorway to my destination?
Greetings,
Thomas

Hi, just tried the same.
And there is indeed a motorway on the route to the biker ranch.
Actually, I can't see any difference on the small screen whether “avoid motorways” is on or off; both routes look the same.

Yep, that i exactly what I have seen on the screen
They look the same and switching the motorway avoidance on or off changed nothing.

Nobody else seen this problem?

You mean the “scenic” option in the app, right?

[TomOnTour]

@CD130 Yes, excactly:
I switch ti scenic and selct the middle curvy variant (the one between very straight and the very curvy option )

@TomOnTour Just tested 3 different destinations and seems to be doing well here. Motorways are avoided.

@CD130 Thank you for the feedback. As weather is beautiful again I will do another test to a different location.

I just used some waiting time to make a small test: Inused my iphone with myrouteAPP and surprisingly the iphone version is not using the motorway. I will double check this when I am back home again.

Hey can confirm the error, switch off the chargeable road at medium curve, then the A43 will no longer be used for me !!

We do not have such a chargeable street in the region !!

Hey kann den Fehler bestätigen, schaltet mal bei mittlerer Kurvigkeit zusätzlich die Gebührenpflichtige Straße aus, dann wird bei mir die A43 nicht mehr genutzt !!

Bei uns gibt es keine solche Gebührenpflichtige Straße in der Region !!
