    Hello!
    I have mainly used OSM, but there are other alternatives such as TomTom, Here etc..

    I do navigate with the MRA on my Android device fitted on the motorcycle, I wonder if there is any benefits to use either of the layers. I guess maybe it is only important to use i.e. TomTom if you would normally extract the route such a device. Is there any benefits to use OSM versus Here?

    Also, I guess you may select which map layer to use when constructing a route, is there any benefits to chose the layers against each ither?

    In two weeks we will travel south along Europe.

        Hi @Johannes-Bergmark if you are explicitly asking about the map layer in the navigation app (the green arrow)

        8d15387c-092e-46aa-84b6-cd88621e9d35-image.png

        As far as I understand it makes no difference to the navigation which map layer you use
        The map layers in the navigation app are purely a graphic layer so you pick the one that most pleases you
        I also tend to use the OSM as it has more contrasting colours & I find it easier to read,
        the Here map is just a bland indecipherable grey mush

        BlackView BV7100, Android 12
        Navigate "Routes as Tracks" in Offline mode with Offline Maps
        No Wifi, no internet, no interruptions, works well
