    Hello all, I was wondering what is the best way to use the navigation part of the app. I have an IOS device and use the myroute app for bus routes I have created for my bus routes. The app seems clunky on the phone. So I was wondering if there was a better device than Iphone to use. I drive a different bus each day and I will have to have something portable. What are some suggestions?

      @Matt-Anderson-0, Clunky? What do you mean by that, not enough map available? In that case, just use a bigger phone or tablet 😉

      I am just an enthusiastic MRA user, and hope you will be one too!

      Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebar to the saddle.

          @MotoCon If you use a bigger phone or tablet the view will be the same, but just bigger. As far as I know you get the same information on your screen. Correct?

                @MotoCon by clunky, I mean it seems slow, and some of the roads in my area don't show up. As well as when I pass waypoints on the navigation, they stay on the map or the app tries to navigate a different way than I have planned out on the route creator. I am in America and this app seems to be based out of europe where it would get more support and better navigation. Over in the states most people rely on IOS or Android devices. So I was asking for recommendations for a device. I noticed in the route creator that it mentions Tom Tom and HERE devices. So I was looking to purchase one if it was good and price was reasonable.

                  @Matt-Anderson-0, The app does not seem slow to me at all. Maybe it is your iPhone? I don't have any Apple stuff, but friends do and I never heard the term "slow" from them. If you hate slow, I would certainly stay away from TomTom or Garmin products...

                    You are clearly biased against Garmin and your statement demonstrates the fact perfectly. The latest XT3 devices are highly regarded for their speed of operation. Specifically:

                    The new capacitive touchscreens mean that panning, map scrolling, pinching-to-zoom, and typing on the screen etc. happen quickly and fluidly.

                    Routing and dynamic re-routing is faster than MRA on my phone.

                    Every rider I have met with an XT3 comments about its great performance. Performance is also called out as a positive in every online review video I have watched.

                    I find your comment to be disingenuous and misleading given the overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

                    I can't comment on TomTom devices as I have no experience of, or interest in them.
