<![CDATA[Suggestion: "Snap to" a road]]>As I place waypoints I find that I don't always hit the roads. Your YouTube instructional videos address this quite well, and advise that you ensure that each point is actually on a road. Is it possible to add a "snap to" feature in the placing function so that if you were close to a road it would just put it there? I've seen other mapping programs do that & it does speed up route creation while making sure things are right. (It does not replace checking your work--it just makes it easier/faster).

In some instances I know this is not desirable but that could be addressed by making it a switchable option.

I never seen that lay out before. And I am using Android. Can you be more precise how to get there?

Snap-to would be really helpful on the web routelab. I find I drop a bunch of waypoints as I build a route and then need to do a cleanup pass zooming in to every point to make sure it’s actually on the road and not 5-20m in a field.

Currently the Android app has a few more features than the iOS app due to the development capacity being slightly skewed with more expertise on Android being available.

...this is an issue (incident), right? And @Nick-Carthew should raise a Ticket?

But unfortunately, I can't find this option in MRA App.

I then use the right arrow button within the route point information box > to move to the next route point and so on.

It can as well snap to the other side of a highway, or to a tine sidestreet of the main road you are aiming at.
