How to change voices
For Android you can download different voices from the map download menu and later select the downloads somewhere in the settings. It is not a great choice though.

Looking for an alternative to the Navigator app
This is a Mapfactor forum full of fans of this app. So I think, this is absolutely the wrong place to post such a question. To get an answer for your question, just look at general forums.

Test of version 7.0.x for Android
@MacDony We are discussing this the last days, see above. Go back to version 46 and it will work again ;-) . It really seems to be a major issue, maybe just for people, who don't use Android Auto.

I guess it is since version 7.x, that Navigator even kills my internet radio sound coming over bluetooth. Over the weekend I missed any sound at all in my car, when I tried to listen to radio and Navigator instructions. It did work a week before wit…
