@guenniguenzelsen You need some ^ votes, mine will help your posts.

@guenniguenzelsen I've looked at your route.
At point 17 there's nothing that could have caused your fault. Its just a little of route but that's well within the margins of the app.
Could it be that your internet connection was a bit low. When riding in Germany I usually drive using the offline methode because of the poor coverage in your country. (Compaired to mine)
Maybe that could be a solution for you

Hi Marinus
You are right - mobile internet coverage in Germany sometimes still is poor.

But for the situation above, the connection was good and available.
During the coffee break I surfed the internet and it was good and stable 5G connection.
Same at the junction ~1km later where I tried to get the App working again. There was good an stable connection - and the re-download of MRA from the Playstore was finished in the blink of an eye.

Btw: Thanks for the received likes. I can now answer directly

Sounds a bit like this well known issue (?)

I am having the same issues.. no correct gps position. Strange behavior like thinking I am on a side road.. changing direction and so forth.. this is only using the app and not AA ..

I once had a similar problem. After trying many times, I finally reset my phone and . . . the problem was gone!

My (new) phone was just installed the day before...

Had the same problem yesterday. Never had it before. When I started the navigation I noticed that the app had problems to go online (message that it switched to offline mode appeared). I was on data and had just entered a wifi zone. So I expect that it is related to this.
The problem didnt go away until I switched off both data and wifi , stopped the app, restarted wifi and the app.

I'm coming back from my 2nd bike-tour with MRA this year.
Same issue happened again.
After the coffe-break MRA stopped working.
Only a complete re-start of the smartphone brought it back to life.

Is there any support or feedback on that topic from MRA in the meantime for us?

This is a problem with the app. You are not the only one suffering from this position freeze. It is particularly frustrating when leading a ride. There are work arounds but this needs fixing and fast.
