    Since a lot of us have been experiencing issues with HERE maps, I was wondering if it might be possible for MRA Next to use TomTom maps (or have the option) instead of HERE? It seems TomTom maps are more accurate with less issues.

      Hi @Ron-Z

      I understand your idea, but there are - at last from my experience and point of view - 2 reasons to not change from HERE to something else:

      • My personal experiences are, that every single map provider have very good and accurate areas in their maps and very bad areas. When I used 3 navigation systems in parallel (that was when I was testing if MRA is the way to go for me, or not) HERE had bad data and TomTom had bad data. Seldom in the same area, but overall there have been no real winner.

      • HERE is not only map data, but also comes with an API and a development framework. If you want to change the map data, you also would have to rewrite a lot of your application code, which doesn't make sense for me, when you read my short report about map data being better or worse

      Greetings

      • Seasonal closures affect not only seasonal road closures (mountain passes and the like) but also closures due to roadworks. This is why the route takes you through the closure even during planning, even though Here is actually aware of it.
