Yes, you are right but not entirely.If you create a waypoint (or route point) it automatically gets the name of the street or the name of the POI.When you are in the "Route Information" screen and you tap a waypoint you can also rename it.

Repeat the last voice command
SnD said: "What about a short tap on directions arrow to repeat last voice command, and a long tap to open itinerary?" I fully agree. This is also how some other apps work. One addition: If you are in the itinerary screen (after the long …

Hi Dmytro, What you describe is a favourite. That is the bottom option of the side panel. The "Waypoint" is really like a temporary waypoint which you want to use in your navigation.If you want to store it with a name use the "Add Fav…

MapFactor OSM Data Processing
The mapping of multi-lane roads as such is also a long running discussion within OSM. For motorways it is most common to really make it as two separate roads. For trunks it is not always clear and for lower priority multi-lane roads it is even less …

OSM and MapFactor are indeed "free" ...
Maybe you have the issues due to the country you live in. I have used the OSM based maps and several apps in the Netherlands, England, Belgium, West and North of France, Germany and Austria. All those countries have active communities and the road m…

What do you mean with "our perception on the road".

Navigating a pre-recorded route
You can create routes in routeconverter. Than convert this route with RouteImporter. RouteImporter will directly place it in Navigator free as a route making it possible to completely use this as a route.

Bug or feature? I just encountered the following bug/feature during travelling.When using "destination:lanes" you get the nice blue road sign on motorways in the top-left of your screen (see Google Play). Say, we have two ongoing lanes wit…

Dangerous commands / screen on Zwickauer Straße in Chemnitz/Germany
I have already been struggling with this from the last 2-3 map builds when working on turn:lanes and destination:lanes. This weekend I have been trying to make a reproducible case as I wanted to report this myself as well, but Oldie was ahead of me.…

If I select the city center of München I also get an error as if I haven't downloaded a map. Which is not true as I have all german regions.The problem is that if you route to the center of München, you end up in a pedestrian area. This gives t…

Slow route recalculation ?
I do agree of course about Navigator using multiple threads.I reacted on 2 posts and maybe I should have used 2 posts myself. One about the single/multi-threading possibilities. It is hard to program though if there are dependencies between calculat…

Yes, you are right. It is an error in Navigator. I tried two other ones and both route correctly over the M1. Neither can I find errors in OSM.I can only think that it is due to the Wooton roundabout which has u-turn restriction tags which are not c…

Slow route recalculation ?
I have the idea that navigator is mono-core. I tried many navigation apps and Mapfactor navigator is by far the fastest in route calculation. Simply fast is not useful if the route is not OK. I did comparisons between Osmand, BeOnRoad (now Aponia an…
