Waypoint info and screen brightness

[Bart De Medts]

Two reports:

1. When I drive a route, it does not always succeed in displaying the info behind certain waypoints by simply clicking on the waypoint. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. And is it normal that the photos associated with the waypoints are not displayed in the app?

2. While navigating, my phone screen sometimes dims a bit. It is subtle... and the phone settings indicate that the screen brightness is at maximum, but in reality it is not. Why the screen dims I don't know, I think it's a bug. Am I the only one? I've experienced it a few times.

@Bart-DM thanks!

1: only waypoints with a description and / or images can be opened to display more info.
2: sounds like something the phone does - possibly a side effect of the battery drain (to prevent heating issues)

@Corjan-Meijerink

1. I understand that. However, I discovered that when you open a route en start navigating in Next the function does work, but if you close the route back and then reopen (or another one) it no longer works.

2. Ok, but maybe other people have noticed this too?

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Bart-DM aha, that sounds like a problem! I did not read it like that the first time Do you have an example of a route where I can reproduce the issue with? Please let me know what waypoint it applies to.

[Bart De Medts]

@Corjan-Meijerink I only just discovered it myself. It occurs on all routes and at all route points that have info behind them.

The first time, it works. After that, not unless you restart the app.

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Bart-DM aha! I got it now too
Isn't related to the waypoints - it's another problem. Try opening and closing the navigation menu Clicking the waypoint after that does work!

[Bart De Medts]

@Corjan-Meijerink Yes you are right!

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Bart-DM probably know how to fix it already but Sunday evening isn’t the time for that Thanks for all your reports and continuous effort to make the app better.

[Bart De Medts]

@Corjan-Meijerink Haha, you're welcome

[Bart De Medts]

@Corjan-Meijerink I assume it is normal that the photos are not shown in the app?

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Bart-DM waypoint photos should be displayed

[Bart De Medts]

@Corjan-Meijerink I don't see the photos in the app. Can you check this route? Most of the yellow waypoints have a photo...

@Bart-DM I also don’t see them. Waypoint images as visible in the routeplanner are also shown in the app. When images are present, the app will also show them in the route info screen (the one you see when clicking the url).

Try this one: https://www.myrouteapp.com/route/open/6227367

[Bart De Medts]

@Corjan-Meijerink Yes here I see them. Any idea what could be wrong?

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Bart-DM no idea You see the images in the routeplanner?

It’s a nice route! Just been there as you read

[Bart De Medts]

@Corjan-Meijerink yes i see them in the routeplanner. Thx, nice route you forwarded too by the way

Perhaps interesting to know... I copied the route from the Xperten library and adapted it myself. So the photos were not added to the route by me.

[Bart De Medts]

@Corjan-Meijerink Please ignore my post about the pictures. For some reason there are no more photos in the route I was talking about. Just tested and when I add a photo I see it in Next

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Bart-DM happy it’s sorted!

[Bart De Medts]

@Corjan-Meijerink sorry for this.

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Bart-DM no need to!
