      Hi guys, I'd like to make a suggestion if I may.
      I've recently bought the app and think it's amazing,so thank you, exactly what I want, haven't had much chance to use it yet in the UK until the weather comes but looking forward to using it.

      My suggestion is that when using navigation that there is a screen option which just has a big arrow and large distance info (similar to Beeline Moto for example,but better 🙂 ). With a dark background, and the 2 reasons I am suggesting it are that I struggle without my reading glasses to see the information when riding a bike,and if I haven't heard it clearly I can just glance down at the clear arrow, or at the clear distance until the next turn.
      And the other reason is I'm guessing a largely black screen with just a big arrow etc would be good for battery drainage on my phone. ?

      So thanks for an amazing app and hopefully you'll find a magic way to assist my poor eyes.
      Keep up the good work, kind regards.
      Ian

        @ian-davies-2 happy to read you are enjoy using the app! 🙂
        The suggestion you gave is not something that will be implemented in the nearby future. It sort of removes all the fun stuff from navigating however it would be very clear to read! 😉

            I wear varifocal glasses so can usually see the screen. But with an aging population and not everyone can get on with varifocals, this could become a significant request.

              @Tony-13 I did watch a couple of reviews of the Beeline Moto to use side by side with MRA but at the moment the Beeline can't cope with a GPX and just crashes. Plus I'd only want it for the arrow so wouldn't really want to pay a couple of hundred pounds for it. Will keep Googling. Glasses aren't for me I'm afraid, just reading glasses when on stop

                It could be an option to implemented when your wish list is empty.
                A kind of "Easy Mode"
                I can see the attraction of the Beeline principle.
                A simple single color screen with a large navigation symbol, navigation line and a few side roads for orientation.

                (I use MRA Next only on Android Auto. Every comment, suggestion, etc will be based on my usage with Android Auto)
