Custom POI color and icons

[Lluis Arasanz]

I know that is an old request… but will be possible with new planner?

With the option on Next to use POI groups and show on map while riding, the possibility to know what a displayed icon is by color or even by personal icon could be very good.

This can be expanded to the star for favorites, allowing a color change (not only yellow)

Thank’s in advance. Regards

That would be good to be able to adjust the icon itself in color or in the symbol, perhaps similar to now also with the WP at least with the colors.

So yes now at the WP

Since the POIs Icons

I would like to add my support for this suggestion, if you have a few POIs close together, adding your own colour will help you identify the POI category that has been used. So in principle it would work in a similar way to waypoints, you select your POI and add it to the map then if you click on it a menu pops up where you can change the details including adding a colour.

How did you do that, what your two pictures show corresponds to my idea, that doesn't exist yet or am I so blind that I can't find exactly that in the new MRA route planner Next

Or did the AI make you a design for this

@Hubert-Thoring ia?

[Corjan Meijerink]

Done!
It was indeed already shared as a request elsewhere so I was already working on it.

Note: if you sync the app with beta, the new colors won't work. A new beta version will be released next week. Given the minimal people it can impact now I went for a lazy option to not be fully backwards compatible.

I refreshed beta planner and see no changes for colors. Perhaps still not pushed ??

Yes!!!
I think I was too faster to check

Great!!!

[Lluis Arasanz]

Wow!!! 11 more icons and 6 colors. That’s really nice

Just a quick question: is that feature coming as well?

• Text displayed in the app...
• Web links that can be embedded in the text and then accessed by clicking "Next" in the app's navigation...

Basically, just like with waypoints..
