            @nick-carthew I don't think there's an actual 'sneaky' reason behind it, but taking 'lifetime' to mean no later than 2098 does seem a bit arbitrary.

            It's almost like the Y2K-problem all over again, except 100 years later (so Y2.1K) ๐Ÿ™‚ At first I thought there was a technical explanation for this limit (and there still might be) but I couldn't figure out any reasonable explanation myself.

                  You did not buy software, you bought a subscription to a service. If the platform stops, there is no software whatsoever you can still use.

                  I am just an enthusiastic MRA user, and hope you will be one too!

                  Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebar to the saddle.

                    โ€œLifetimeโ€ is a classic marketing/legal term that very rarely means what you think it means.

                    I would take a guess that 85-90% of the MRA Navigation subscribers are 35 and over, so in this instance its a bloody good offer in my opinion.

                    Personally Iโ€™ll be swapping my Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro for a Zimmer frame long before my โ€œLifetimeโ€ Navigation sub runs out. ๐Ÿ˜ณ

                    I think Iโ€™ll go for the Carbon Overland adventure version when the time comes.

                        I do not see the use of a walker (rollator) as the end point of the lifetime subscription.
                        Maybe time for some adjustments in the MRA Nav app. I rather see a business opportunity. ๐Ÿ˜Š

                          Loving the conversation here!

                          I can give a simple explanation on the matter. Navigation Lifetime is just like the Gold Lifetime, you get access till eternity ๐Ÿ™‚
                          Our apps need to be updated to display something else rather than a date (such as 01-01-2099). As we now only have the possibility to display dates, an arbitrary date somewhere in the far future has been chosen ๐Ÿ˜‰

                          We are working to support the following with Navigation:

                          • Powered wheelchair vehicle selection
                          • In building navigation with preloaded senior homes
                          • POI's to quickly navigate to the restaurant or bingo
                          • In app solitair minigame
                          • Larger font size that do not require glasses

                          And way more to enable our users to use the app even after 2099!

                              That is not within the definition of lifetime, even if you stretch it beyond the lifetime of the product ๐Ÿ˜‰

                                  I can give a simple explanation on the matter. Navigation Lifetime is just like the Gold Lifetime, you get access till eternity ๐Ÿ™‚
                                  Our apps need to be updated to display something else rather than a date (such as 01-01-2099). As we now only have the possibility to display dates, an arbitrary date somewhere in the far future has been chosen ๐Ÿ˜‰

                                  We are working to support the following with Navigation:

                                    I do not see the use of a walker (rollator) as the end point of the lifetime subscription.
                                    Maybe time for some adjustments in the MRA Nav app. I rather see a business opportunity. ๐Ÿ˜Š
