    Yes, I know that you can skip the Waypoints or tap a Waypoint from which you want to start from the Waypoints menu, but.... it's too much work for a simple thing.

    Garmin has a very convenient feature where it asks you where you want to start navigating from:
    Start of the Route OR A Nearest Waypoint.
    One touch deal! Very Convenient!

    Is there a chance we can have that in our MRA Nav?
    Thx!

    @Lenny-O No idea which version you are using, but of course that feature may have been available for quite some time already. If you ride the route as a route (not as a track), then before you actually start navigating the route, you can choose the point from which you want to start. You can start from the nearest route point, select a route point yourself, or rearrange the route (a nice recent update).

    You can find “Rearrange” in the buttons on the right side next to the “Start” button. You may need to swipe to the right to see it.

      @Rob-Verhoeff Rob, Thanks!
      Like I said, I am aware of that option, but I was hoping for 1 click option.... 😜

        I don’t think you’ve understood what Rob was trying to tell you.

        This one-click function is also available in MRA.

          You can only select a starting point if you navigate a route as route. If you navigate as track than the starting point is always the first point. In an earlier release this difference was not there.

            @Lenny-O really, too much trouble to tap a wp to skip?

              @Lenny-O How many buttons do you want on your screen to control everything with a single click? I think changing the starting point of your route is a simple and straightforward way to do it!

                @RetiredWingMan It is not troble to skip one, but annoying if you have to skip many.

                  Thank you all for your thoughts, but I think you all are missing my point....
                  It's not about me, not about criticizing the App, not about me not knowing my options...
                  All I am saying is that MRA knows where I am and the route I am taking.
                  Just offering to start from the nearest Waypoint, like Garmin does, would be nice to have. Even if as a little pop-up.
                  All I am suggesting is a user-friendly way to start a route. I think that would make the App easier to use and be more appreciated.
                  So, no sarcasm or passive-agressive coments are needed.
                  I am trying to suggest something that would benefit everyone, at least in my mind.

                  Also, @herman-veldhuizen is absolutely correct in his statement. And that brings another twist into starting somewhere else other than the Start of the route.

                    Long press on any waypoint on screen to skip all previous waypoints. One manoeuvre, no extra buttons.

                      @Nick-Carthew Thanks, Nick! That's what I needed!!! 👍
                      And I see that it works whether you navigate the Route as a Track or just navigate a Route!
                      Perfect!
