Search for POI nearest to map center. You may ask why is this so important? I am English and to spell some of these places to search under address (which does work) is a pain in the BUM.It was much easier to search nearest from Map Center or GPS pos…

Follow position without following a route
I have a secondary navigation app that does warn of speed cameras and when your speed exceeds the posted speed limit even when no destination is set.

Speed Cameras on Navigator
@hdwolf. You are correct speed camera warning software is not allowed in Germany BUT it still works if you want to take the risk (which I do).

Too many windows to leave the program.
It's called programming for idiots. Are we sure you really want to quit? Maybe you said exit accidentally.

Navigating Map view
Auto zooming is not a function of speed (I wish it was) but a function of distance to changes of direction in the route.I never use 3d setting only 2d north up, as I hate it when the map swings all over the place, so sorry can't help there.

Speeds used by MFN higher than speed limits
Don't know why all the fuss. You cannot simulate a real time journey, there are far too many variables and I am not even sure why you would want to, it all seems to be pointless. You get an 'estimated' time of arrival and that for me …

Hi Thomas. That was reality, on the ground the houses had the same number. A bit confusing for the postman.

How can you do it with anything else? If an address had more than one result then all but one would be wrong the only place I have seen that was in Cambodia (Phnom Phen). The street where I lived had the same number house 4 times.

Strange you used to be able to select which search results you wanted to see displayed (there was a small box at the right beside each result). I just checked and with POI it's still there. Pick each result you wish to see on the map and then s…
