New beta! 6.0.0 (514)

[Stephen Rowland]

Wow, I’m starting a 2000mile trip around France on Saturday. I’m going to be testing this new version and I’m quite excited. Though I do hope there’s not too many issues.

Riding season is almost over here in Canada! I won't have time to try out all the new features! I will try.

Let's go just loaded for iOS

@hubert-thoring; Yes, go on then, rub it in for the Android users!

@hubert-thoring; Ja, wrijf het er maar lekker in voor de Android gebruikers!

I took a short trip home yesterday with the new beta and everything worked smoothly with no problems, good job! The new resizing is good for roundabouts, etc., but I'm not sure if it's enough for curvy roads – I have to do some more experiments. In my opinion, it could be more effective at lower speeds – the curves would be bigger.
The bottom part with the swipe-up gesture is great!
I have two ideas on how to improve the new beta:

1. Section-based speed measurement: the new bar is fine, but why doesn't it show the current average speed for the section? Would this be possible?
2. The trip line at the bottom is a good idea, but not very useful for long trips. It would be perfect to see only the next 50 km, for example(maybe as a configuration setting), with small fuel station icons on it . Could @corjan-meijerink think about it?

For information:

Just noticed, in the announcement it says (514) in the app it is under iOS but now that I have looked it up (515).

@Hubert-Thoring nothing special in navigating! Just a minor issue that you won’t even think of! It’s not even worth mentioning

when do you expect to have it available for Android?

If it takes as long as the last update, it will take about 14 days. So sometime towards the end of the first week of October.

Do I miss anything? My actual version is 5.2.2. - 489 - but you are talking about 6.0.0. - 514. Because there is a big gap in version numbers (digits). Or is it the usually delay of Android PlayStore?
