    This question is a reaction to the several posts that come down to: "i missed a waypoint, and NEXT rerouted and sent me back while i did not want this."

    I understand that this often is consequence of not placing a routepoint correctly. It happend to me that a routepoint was on the wrong side of the highway... and before I understood what was going on I lost a lot of time.

    I assume that in most cases one does not want to go back to a missed waypoint.

    Is there, or could there be a big message on the screen:

    "YOU JUST MISSED A WAYPOINT. IF YOU WANT ME TO SEND YOU BACK TO THAT POINT, TAP THE SCREEN ANYWHERE.
    IF YOU WANT TO CONTINUE TO THE NEXT POINT? DO NOTHING"

    Alternative could be:

    "YOU JUST MISSED A WAYPOINT. Your phone will self destruct in 5 seconds"

    Now I am expecting someone to point out that this already exists 🙂 I don't seem to have any time anymore these days to keep up to date with the MRA revolution 😞

    It is not difficult, it is easy, it's a hobby

      @Drabslab hmm, if MRA didn't see the WP, how would it know you missed the WP? 😀
