Statement on map spinning

[Adventurer18743]

Hi MRA-Team,

I recently updated my navigation solution to a Caretta from Carpe Iter, MRA App & MRA Gold.
Unfortunately, already in my first test ride, I also ran into this error. In rural areas it might just be annoying, but in big cities, with complex intersections including multiple exits where a wrong turn can easily cost 15min detour, this could be a dealbreaker for me.
MRA is the preinstalled and well integrated navigation App at Carpe Iter and I am a bit surprised, that such an obvious error still seems to be unfixed after half a year.
Is there a bugfix on the way?
Or maybe a workaround where the App relies (more) on the compass of the device instead of the GPS position, if you are not moving?

Sorry for the harsh post, but after spending a premium price for a Caretta + a Gold membership, expectations were pretty high.

Greetings

The bug is fixed in the beta for version 6 which has just been released.
If you are not a beta, you will have to be a little more patient, ETA not known but probably soon.

I’m a beta user and my current version is 5.2.2-489.
I was travelling with this version in Bulgaria and Turkey until 6 September 2026. Unfortunately, the rotation issue when stopping was still present. That’s my experience.

@hawebo, of course, since you don't have version 6 yet
We know Google is taking a lot of time for releasing updates lately...

[M. Schrijver]

It should be fixed from the beta of version 6. Which is just released but maybe not on your phone yet.

[hawebo]

Both smartphones (see signature) are up to date; I’ve just checked again. The updates usually installed quickly. When was version 6 released?

[Corjan Meijerink]

Not planned for public release yet.
It’s now in beta.
Release will be somewhere in the later part of October.

[M. Schrijver]

And.......Google is not very quick lately with releasing the updates in the store

[hawebo]

@Corjan-Meijerink
I’m a beta tester – why haven’t I received version 6 yet?

[Nick Carthew]

@hawebo The iOS BETA update has been released by Apple, Google generally take a little longer to release the Android BETA update. Please be patient.

[hawebo]

No problem, I just wanted to make sure there wasn’t a bug in my settings.

[Corjan Meijerink]

@hawebo will be there when Google approves. Submitted yesterday.

[hawebo]

Thanks, I’ll get in touch as soon as it arrives.

If you have a Android based phone, you have to wait a little longer. The release was 23 september and the last time update for android came about a fourth-night later. So in this case it will be about the second week in October I hope!

[hawebo]

The update to version 6.0 arrived today – thank you!

How come my Android is still on 5.2.2 - 489 ???

[Marinus van Deudekom]

@LennyO go to the Google Store and update it

[LennyO]

@hawebo I assume you are showing the Android phone (looking at your signature).
How come my Android is still on 5.2.2 - 489 ??? @corjan-meijerink

Marinus-van-Deudekom I did, My Store does not show an update option for it...
