MRA Next and Android Auto is not a good match
-
Yesterday I have tried MRA on a ride with friends, but again it didn't work out for me and during the ride I switched to OSMAND, which worked without issues. Later that day I bought a one year subscription for TomTom Go app. In a year I will drop by again, but for now I'm fed up with all issues I have with MRA. In the winter time I did all kind of tests and sometimes new versions were released which were real improvements. But ... I want to start the riding season with a hassle free and working navigation app. Configuration is Pixel 8 phone with Android 15, Chigee AIO 5 Play with firmware 1.5.9, MRA version 4.3.8 - 386.
Issues I experience:
- When I have stopped, e.g. at a gas station, and want to resume my trip, the AA screen freezes. When I stop again and try to restart the route on my phone, this is only happening on my phone, not on the AA device. That remains stuck. This had been resolved earlier in 4.3.5 - 378, but now occurs again.
- Automatic zoom doesn't work anymore. Also not when I use the Dynamic Compass view. This is also the case when the buttons are hidden.
- Buttons are often not hiding after the screen has been used. Then the stop-button overlaps max. speed indication
- Recording tracks doesn't start when I start a route or track from AA. It only starts when I open the app on my phone.
