New Beta! (v4.1.0) Android Auto / CarPlay revamp

[M. Schrijver]

Maybe it was a fix in a previous version but i noticed something else.

Because i deleted everything before i updated to the new version. I needed to download the offline maps again.
This time downloading the maps went pretty quick.

@M-Schrijver it seems that downloading maps is very dependant in Internet traffic and how busy the Here servers are. Sometimes it goes very quickly and other times it feels like we're back in dialup days.

Offcourse you're right. But in the past there were many complaints about the slow download speeds of the offline maps. This was something i noticed too. But this time is was completly different.
I have also TomTom GO. This uses offline map too. But in case of TomRom GO the downloadspeed is always reliable.

@M-Schrijver, When you download maps, the app checks the data it already has. This way an interrupted download does not need to redownload the whole thing again. I guess the data was still present, but the app lost its reference to it. The very quick "download" (probably faster than even possible over wifi?) indicates it merely reindexed the existing maps.

[M. Schrijver]

I did clear all data before deleting the app. Maybe you're right.
In the past even updating the maps did not go this fast.

@M-Schrijver said in New Beta! (v4.1.0) Android Auto / CarPlay revamp:

I did clear all data before deleting the app.

In that case of course your download was completely new Clearing the data withing the Android system app settings does not leave a trace of the maps.

With the latest beta update (version 4.1.0. (272) I encounter several problems:

• in Apple CarPlay the program does not update the card
• in Apple Carplay the program does not update the navigation instructions
• in Apple CarPlay the map is not alway shown
• after using Apple CarPlay, the MRA app crashes

Hopefully this is fixed in the next beta update.
Keep up the good work!
