Voice to phone-speaker at bluetooth connection on
A commentator on Google Play is asking for an additional bluetooth feature: half a second prior to a announcement, play a short sound. This is helpful for sound level in motorcycle helmets, he says. Who can explain to me how this works?

Test of Android version 1.3.xx
I have a question concerning the new features mentioned on Google Play. You write: "Show next manouvre by clicking on streetname during navigation" - what do you mean? In navigation mode, the next manouvre is always shown; this is not new.…

Test of Android version 1.3.xx
My case is a "bit" more complicated. First, my phone had no tts at all because I previously had deactivated Google tts. I downloaded IVONA (German Marlene), set it as default tts. Then I wanted to choose it for Navigator, but I couldn&…

Latest version didn't work either. What's your next suggestion?

hvdwolf now has fixed it, for you :-) It does not help you now, I'm afraid, but the next MapFactor map version for UK will contain this fix. Edit: too late :-)

Map not finding route at home
Yep, there's a bug (or better: a gap) in the OSM data: Homestead Avenue is not linked with Woodgreen Drive, thus not linked at all. No wonder you get this error. This would be the correct connection to Homestead Avenue, by car, isn't it?

Apparently the OSM data do not contain (service) roads to your home, or your current car profile has them not activated. Could you point to the corresponding section of the OSM map? Just search for the correct position, then share the updated URL.

That's why we have to wait for mdx. I don't know whether he is the app developer, but other than tomas, he has the insight into the code. mdx, your turn, please ;-) PS: By the way, tomas is right that the app actually is able to show the…

Before I download: What Germany related modifcations did you NOT take over? Or why should I be unhappy about the update? The compass worked fine for me - what were the issues with it?

Are we really talking about a phone (which?), or the PC version of Navigator?

Can somebody please provide an update about this topic? I also have the issue, that when my phone is connected with my car by bluetooth, the MapFactor voice is muted.

What exactly happens/is diplayed when you open the app, and then click on big button "Maps" (with GPS turned off)?

After some journeys and further tests I am very content with my current tts.xml and navigation.xml in German 8-) If you now add the spoken references, as suggested earlier by hdvwolf, I will be in heaven ;-)

The bottom info was missing for me because GPS was turned off. Why is it not shown without GPS?

@hvdwolf I saw the lane assistant only a week or so ago, on a Autobahn. So it actually works. I was just wondering why it does not appear on "my" route. @mdx Where do I find this information exactly? Please consider that I download all ma…

Well, at least on your screen shots I cannot see any lane assistant?

You should first figure out why you get different results than the users.... The manoeuvres should have been identical. Talking about Android only.
