Automatically snap waypoint to road
-
When placing a waypoint by clicking on the map or dragging the route, it should automatically snap to the closest road available, similar to the default behaviour in the calimoto route planner.
Having this feature would make it unnecessary to review every single waypoint placed, to verify that it is located on the road. Maybe only in the case of highways where there's two sides, would you have to potentially manually correct if the algorithm to snap to the road would not be smart enough to pick the correct side.
This suggestion was already made a few years ago, but not implemented. It would still be a great improvement and time saver though...
Could also be implemented with a toggle to turn the feature on/off for those rare cases that you don't want to drive on the road...

I actually posted this ‘Snap-to-Road’ suggestion on the forum a few years ago. Unfortunately, I only received a rather dismissive reply: ‘There are currently no plans to introduce this feature.’ I’m a big fan of the MyRoute-App. However, I also consider the lack of a ‘Snap-to-Road’ feature to be a major shortcoming. I’d be interested to know whether we can expect this feature at some point, or whether it’s unlikely. What are the arguments for and against it, from the developers’ perspective?
