Recalculating route when changeing highway sides during construction
The message in the middle of navigation was a mistake in 1.1.5. It is removed from 1.2.19+ and it should behave similarly as in older versions. There should be improved GPS snap if you are using Car profile ... let us know if it is better. Here is t…

Pedestrian profile settings not working
Hi PeskyPerson :), you are right. I do not feel like charge/toll/congestion charge would have any sense for pedestrian, but enable/disable some road types could be useful ... in 1.2.19+ is the category on/off taken into account also for pedestrian: …

External SD card not found
Hi, the download link: http://download.mapfactor.com/mapfactor_navigator.apk is now pointing to 1.2.18+, which should solve the issue with read-only access to navigator directory. If you still have problem please let us know. regards Martin

Lake "Müritz" is not on maps of northern Germany
No - as I said, it is mapped correctly. In OSM it is bit unfortunate, that you can describe objects (lake in this case) with several options. In this case mapping as way and mapping as relation is used, which is from OSM point of view correct (!).

Private swiming pool should not appear in the "Points Of Interest"
patched - in March data 2014 you should not see it as POI any more (if access=private)

Lake "Müritz" is not on maps of northern Germany
Hi Oldie, the "Müritz" lake is probably mapped correctly. If you click in navigator in place where you would expect the lake, you will see it in info. The reason is that it is mapped twice - once in your relation http://www.openstreetmap.o…

Can you send us related log files (/sdcard/navigator/log folder) ... it could be more clear from that. Mention this forum URL as reference. regards Martin

Did I get the map update I purchased?
This is probably confusion between TomTom maps notification and OSM notification. At the moment you can buy TomTom maps from 2013, but OSM maps are updated every month, i.e. the latest is from Feb 2014. TomTom is releasing maps quarterly, so release…

@touko810 - Android APK files are in reality ZIP files, and some web browsers "decides" to change their extension :( ... just rename it back to ".apk" and it should work.

OK - it should be fixed in March 2014 data, i.e. if 'int_name' is available and 'name' is missing, 'int_name' will be used instead.
