[Andre Trudeau]

[Erdna]

Thanks guys! Eager to try it after winter is gone.

[Con Hennekens]

Congratulations on the new version! Great job from the devs, and I feel honored to be able to play my small part in testing.

Great shoutout to all Alpha testers providing early feedback

You're very much welcome! It has been a true delight sharing the occasional dealbreaking- but also our nitpicking finds to you. The app has gone through a truly amazing metamorphosis. We, als alpha's, can't wait for what the future holds. The past has been a joy in it's own.

[Benjamin Ralston]

Great job - but really wish you would have addressed the small font size on the "next turn" in the navigation. That's the one little (pardon the pun) thing that makes this app difficult to use.

what about Carplay and Android Auto ?

What about??

[Ronny Schenkels 0]

Well, you can not ignore there were issues with Android Auto, less with Carplay, were they addresses in this v5.0 ?

[Rob Verhoeff]

@Ronny-Schenkels-0 I definitely don’t deny that there are issues with both Android Auto and CarPlay. I personally don’t experience those problems, partly because I only use CarPlay in wired mode in my car. I read a lot about connection issues caused by different interfaces like Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, combined with all sorts of exotic devices such as Chigees, Carpurides, and whatever other brands are out there. And then the helmet also needs to connect wirelessly through one of those channels if you're a biker! Someone once told me: every extra layer is an extra layer of complexity… And you can’t really deny that either. But I think things have improved quite a bit in version 5

[Nomko Nomden]

Kijk er naar uit!

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Ronny-Schenkels-0 improved quite a bit but I won’t deny that those systems remain complex

Fantastic work guys, congratulations!

426 is in the Google Play Store

[Mathijsco]

Very nice update! It was a bit confusing that the map was different than the one when navigating.

However, is there still an option to view another map when not navigating?
I really liked the Outdoor map when I was on my holiday, used it a lot.

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Mathijsco want to reintroduce that later on.
For now there are some technical issues at HERE allowing me to do that

Een ding is verwarrend, kan aan mij liggen, maar bij vermijdingsopties moet je groen kiezen om niet te vermijden en rood om te vermijden. Je verwacht dat als iets actief is, groen dus, dat je iets gaat vermijden.

Als je op de ... drukt bij een route krijg je het tandwieltje te zien voor instellingen en daarnaast de kaartlaag maar de kaartlaag staat ook in de instellingen is dit niet dubbel op?

[Manzo91]

Hi, on the main screen, when using the device in landscape mode, how can I hide the menu in free ride mode? Any updates regarding displaying speed limits in free ride mode? Thanks.

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Manzo91 Not until we actually have a dedicated well functioning free ride mode
If you have a cycle / walking route there will be a free drive option in which the menu is smaller.

For other (normal) routes, this is a slightly hidden feature (by design) but you can long press the navigate button to trigger free drive.

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Cleo Dubbel op zeker! Ik had het in het menu weggehaald maar toen was er al paniek bij de testers omdat ze het niet konden vinden

Je geeft niet zozeer de vermijding aan maar waar je over wilt rijden: groen is dus wel en rood is niet. Ik snap je punt (hoewel dit niet veranderd is in de app sinds jaren).
