Waypoin automatic correction
-
Development suggestion.
Some MyrouteApp competitors have a feature where the system warns about a waypoint placed outside the route/road and asks "Do you want to correct it to the route?" MRA does not have that and it is sometimes annoying when your waypoint is in a field or on a small road outside the route. Due to the lack of that feature, the route must always be reviewed waypoint by waypoint before the use or the publication.
For example, in the spring, when I was pulling a group of 10 motorcycles out of Berlin, one waypoint was some 200 m on the wrong side of the intersection and outside the route, which caused a 30-minute adventure.
An example of a system with that feature is Tourstart. Tourstart is weaker than MRA in other features.
MRT 5.0 seems excellent and I look forward to using it as soon as the next riding season starts. -
A requested "snap to" feature is long outstanding.

I agree!

you are always going to have to review/check the route unless you 100% trust that the "snap to feature" has snapped the point to the exact road you want which may not be the case if you are placing a point shortly after a junction, it could snap to the wrong arm of the junction & you would still end up with your 30 minute adventure

...if you are using MyRoute-App for navigation, the planning (on HEERE map) must not be 100% perfect. The app is a bit tolerable if the route point is not exactly on the road. See the drawn line.
But exception: if you are planning the route on a highway (separated line directions) - the route point must be placed on the right side! -
@Guzzist : I agree with you, it gets interesting if you simply reverse a route with a highway, because then it happens that a WP is definitely on the wrong side.
@Rauno-Säteri
So I recommend to always control the route with the WP, a function for zooming helps to recognize a nonsensical deviation from WP at an early stage, for zooming there are several good BT controllers.... These help you to recognize deviations early..!! -

Yes, of course, but placing waypoints close to junctions is ill advised anyway. Snapping to the road somewhere outside any junctions would be very nice I think.
