Using MRA as a Sat nav on my mobile

[Kev251]

I have been planning routes on MRA and transferring the to a Zumo 346. But i have had issues, i belive it is the Zumo about to die on me!. With this in mind, can i use MRA as a navigation system, as you can with google? I beleive i have seen mention of MRA Nav, but haven't a clue!

@Kev251 yes you can. Youneed a special app and i guess also a yearly fee but many people seem very happy wit it. It is the way i will go when my tomtom dies. Extra advantages are that rout preparations and navigation happen on the same platform and there are some special features. Just have a look at a navigation webinar.

@Kev251 As @Drabslab said, you will need to download the MRA Navigation app. It works out at less than a tank of fuel per year. €39.95 per 3 years subscription.

@Nick-Carthew Not much value for money if it doesn't work and the company can't even keep their users appraised

@Nick-Tranter That's very harsh, the problem has been found to affect ios systems only and the technicians are working on it now.

@Nick-Carthew Thanks for the update.

@Kev251 adding to Nick his comment. A decent motorcycle nav system costs easily 400 euro. And you would be very happy if it survives 10 years of use. For that amount yuo can have a regularly improving MRA nav for 20 years.
I know this is not entirely correct because using a phone on a motorcycle may lead to the phone dying a bit sooner. Just want to say MRA is not breaking the bank

In addition, its a general IOS problem affecting many apps from many different companies.
