@MacDony - Voice Engine - Google Text-to-SpeechVoice Language - English: Synthetised English (GB) If getting working I will ask Tomas or Stepan to incorporate in the updates. They have done some waypoint in TTS.xml changes for me already.

Motorcycle road trip, filter distance announcements and waypoint names
@MacDony - thanks for the clarification. Had a look at the file but it seems not to be as simple in EN language as is in FR languages. I could not see those lines under the EN section but can be found in english under different language sections. …

Inserting % does suppress the announcement of the name of the waypoint but still announces "Waypoint" reached etc. Is this the correct behaviour?

@mes - I think on the motorbike you might have the same result as mine. It could be that due to the speed the app works much harder but somehow it let's the zoom button to pop up. BTW - what app did you use while not using mapfactor?

@MacDony - re. Alternative route. I agree with you fully hence I have mine switched off permanently - too many times had to stop to switch it off. I love the function but too much hassle as most of routes have waypoints.
