I’ve just tried V6. A few suggestions.
-
I have just tried V6, and I must say that an excellent job has been done with this new version; it represents a significant leap in quality. I have nothing but praise for the developer(s). That said, I would like to offer a few suggestions. I own a TomTom Rider 550, and I recently purchased a Carpuride 702 Plus—which runs on Android 14—on which I have installed the MyRoute-app (I do not use Android Auto). I have included an image of my setup to illustrate my suggestions. I must acknowledge that TomTom has managed to fit all the necessary information onto a 5-inch screen, and one of its greatest strengths is the side progress bar, which I find very useful. I believe there is ample room in the white space at the bottom left to place such a progress bar; that area currently feels underutilized. In any case, it could be implemented just as TomTom does—by making the progress bar optional. If you look closely, TomTom’s bar also displays upcoming gas stations along the route. This approach could be adopted, potentially replacing the black box that currently shows the distance to the next gas station, thereby freeing up more space for the map. The Carpuride 702 is sufficiently large (7 inches), and it works well for me as it is; I would simply add the progress bar in that space, where it would fit perfectly. Additionally, the blue box in the top-left corner seems excessively large and could be reduced. I offer these suggestions primarily with smaller devices in mind.

I cannot agree more. I also think a TomTom like info bar cleans up the interface and at the same time to be able to put more info on your screen without the change it is overcrowded with info.

Ook mee eens heb ook de Carpuride W702 Pus het neemt te veel ruimte in beslag in het linker gedeelte, de venstertegels zijn te groot voor een 7 inch scherm, betreft de optie zoals de TomTom lijkt mij ook beter ziet er wat geordnerd uit en kriskras verdeeld over het scherm me grote en klein tegels.
De W70s plus werkt goed na een eerste rit maar nog niet goed kunnen testen in de praktijk aangezien ik de Carpuride nog niet zo lang heb, en het seizoen wel voorbij is en het voorjaar maar eens grondig testen in de praktijk met goed weer. de app installeren en gebruik zonder telefoon is al een verbetering en de online verbinding via Hotspot in de praktijk zal ik moeten testen hoe het gaat met gpx bestand route inplaats van track, dat moet ik nog uitvogelen.

La prueba de hoy fue para probar la V6 y muy bien. Ya habia realizado varias pruebas con y sin conexión de internet mediante punto de acceso desde el móvil. Con una pantalla de 7" con la del Carpuride 702 plus, la verdad es que aunque los cuadros de indicaciones sean grandes, el mapa se sigue viendo bien. Sin embargo creo que tomando las buenas ideas de otros (barra de progreso de TomTom, la interface se puede mejorar aun mas y dar mas espacio a los mapas. Esto beneficiaria mucho mas a personas que usan dispositivos de 6" e incluso de 5". La barra de TomTom da mucha informacion. Está muy bien estructurada. Yo creo que si se agrega esta opción a la interfase de la V6, se estaria dando un paso mas. Ademas se podria hacer que se active o desactive según el gusto de cada quien

Hello,
I’m curious whether the next turn instruction—specifically the text below the arrow—is displayed in a larger font in the new Android app. In the previous version, the font size in that area was simply too small for a mobile phone, making it difficult to read while riding a motorcycle in bright sunlight. During a 1,000 km trip, I found that even my TomTom Rider 400 offered better visibility regarding the distance to the next turn. I would really appreciate a larger font size for this information. It seems to be well-implemented on your Carpuride unit. I agree with you that the info bar on the TomTom is well-designed.See here:

En la Carpuride 702 plus, todo se ve perfectamente, incluso diría que demasiado grande. No tengo ninguna queja de como se ve. Pero si creo que se puede optimizar de manera de que quede mas espacio para el mapa. Yo creo que con una barra de progreso bien planificada se puede quitar cosas de la pantalla (por ejemplo la de la gasolinera proxima). Entiendo que complacer a todos es imposible Cada uno tiene unas necesidades y gustos diferentes. Pero la barra de progreso puede ser opcional como en TomTom. Incluso en TomTom se puede establecer el tamaño. Hay 2 tamaños. Y tb está la opción de quitarla. La Barra de progreso en muy util y bien diseñada, seguro sería un gran aporte a esta excelente aplicacion.
