New voice issue.. Also music navigation issue
If you use Android try setting your sound output to Google TTS. There is a better choice of voices.

No Tomas. After entering a town/city/postcode the 'No Results' message immediately appears. Typing the name of the POI into the search bar gives the same 'No Results' message.

Follow position without following a route
Running Mapfactor without setting a route will display the map & your position but speed camera alerts only work when in navigation mode.

I've just checked at navigtorfree.mapfactor.com/en/maps/ & this also shows those four areas as I stated above. These are the OSM free maps. Navigator 17 on my PC also shows out dated maps for these areas.
