POI for MFN
Do you mean a website that has POI's in a format for Navigator, instead of having to convert?

LPG, CNG fuel stations
You can download LPG POI's from:- http://www.mylpg.eu/stations/ you will need to convert them for Navigator. See other posts in the forum for information on converting POI's. http://forum.mapfactor.com/discussion/comment/8918#Comment_8918

I have also mentioned the arrow problem failing to point in the direction of previous travel when stopped. This has been happening in many versions of navigator.

Is it possible to make the House Numbers bigger?
Matthias I don't understand. In one post you mention your device is Android (Android Navigator crashes with GPS off). In this one you talk about windows, which version are you using?
