Test of Android version 3.0.x
@lubos thank you for giving me that feedback. So we need to wait until it is fixed. @tomas: it is not only about missing voice message but about missing and misleading turn instructions, e.g. telling me do drive straight on where one can only turn …

I still have wrong turn calculation mentioned in post #Comment_14458 in version 3.0.123 Can anyone confirm this? Please try to navigate this route with bike: http://www.openstreetmap.org/directions?engine=graphhopper_bicycle&route=53.7092,9.…

Map Download freezes after screen gone to sleep (* perhaps explained *)
You could also check the WiFi energy saving settings of your phone. Normally the Wifi will be turned off after a short moment when the phone goes to sleep.

I searched for a railway station on the map near my current location - without visiblle rails this is not an easy task ;)

Other rails are visible, too. and that is great for orientation.

The wrong turn calculation I mentioned in post #Comment_14458 still exists in 3.0.108

@hvdwolf: I do not expect to simulate real world speed based on the current traffic and all situations that could occur. I did not know that ETA is based on speed limits while simulation is not using it, instead I thought they were equal. So what yo…

Another bug (?) i found is that the route simulation uses wrong speeds. Mapfactor is told to consider speed limits but the simulation drives with 80 km/h (maximum speed I defined in the settings) instead of 70km/h as the speed limit is. I think that…

@hvdwolf: you're right that this is a complex situation, but mnf tells me to turn left. Looks like the node giving this strange instruction is the one you marked red in your image and not the one where there are 4 ways are connected with. This …

Ok thank you. It's interesting that there is so obvious commit related to the voice messages. Btw there is another strange turn message "please turn left" when you should drive straight on: http://www.openstreetmap.org/directions?eng…

It's long ago I asked for this feature - will you implement that railway platforms are rendered (not for routing)?

@tvo: your right, the sound instructions I had in 3.0.77 were wrong, which is now fixed. 3.0.81 still has the same problem with missing turn instructions. Is there a place were one can see the change log?

@tvo: have you tested the route I have posted? There are some very obvious turns but for mapfactor it's must "straight on" In this picture there are two turns that are not recognized by MNF (this way): And here is another turn, tha…

The latest version (3.0.79) seems to have it fixed the repeating speech messages. But now it seems like lots of turning advices are completely missing. Try this route with bike profile: http://www.openstreetmap.org/directions?engine=osrm_car&am…

I used 3.0.77 today for a bike trip. I had lots of left and right turns with distances of about 200 to 500 meters in between. The voice navigation was quite confusing. E.g. the next turn is left and I was about a few 100m before it, the voice said …

Bicycle Routing bug
I was wondering why it says "turn right" instead of "bear right" while it is (in my opinion) exactly the same situation. n this situation iIt would be best to let the navigator just say nothing (but it is nearly impossible to rec…

That is a good point. But given a route like this: http://www.openstreetmap.org/directions?engine=mapzen_bicycle&route=53.74289,9.68114;53.74382,9.68133#map=18/53.74345/9.68204 MNF tells me to stay right but not to turn right. I really canno…

the problem is that MNF does not give proper routing instructions while osm seems to be ok. Neither it is perfect - maybe it is possible to give instructions like: "use footway"

The routing bugs still exists. Is this by design or will you fix this sometime?

Will there be a rendering for railway platforms?

Comment by Garfield December 2014 permalink
railway station
yes, I think this is what I want. Sometimes a railway platform has two ways to access it, so one can use it as a way. But as you say it is a polygon and not a way, routing would be difficult. At least it would be great to show them on the map.

Sry, maybe it wasn't clear: I mean the platform of the station in navigator free for Android For example here: www.openstreetmap.org/way/199552752#map=18/52.51097/13.43177
