Me Too. It would be really nice if the zoom level was related to the speed, the slower you go the greater the zoom.

Maybe you are looking for too much from a navigation app, a one size fits all perhaps. There are other (also free) apps which are much more suitable for recording displaying and analysing GPS tracks and routes, even cross-country (off road). I use N…
