increase volume depending on speed
Thanks for pointing this out to me. A better headset could solve this problem. I am a touristic driver and prefer the smaller 60 km roads so the problem is small. At this moment is use an old smartphone (stripped all unnecessary apps) for mapfacto…

Test of Android version 4.0.x
at this time I see that after updating the app several files are saved with a date added to the name of the file. I know this is done on request of some users but I think that the directory .../files/navigator/ becomes a bit messy with this extra fi…

same for navigation.xml. I would be nice if we can select files that are excluded from an update.

vehicle_profiles and backup strangeness (Android) - where did I go wrong?
I would try the following:1. remove the file vehicle_profiles.xml without replacing it with your backup file. Then start navigator again. I expect that navigator will create a new profile.2. uninstall navigator. install an older version of navigator…

skipping waypoints, response time
I made all the 8 panels "skip waypoint". it is the only panel I need on my motorcycle trips. The waiting is frustating but it is also easy to make mistakes. When I keep my finger too long on the panel I get the menu in which I can change t…

skipping waypoints, response time
skipping a waypoint is only possible when you are navigating a route. creating a waypoint is only possible when you are not navigating a route. Is this behaviour changed since 4.0.48???

Disable waypoint/routepoint in route after passing it
I have the same experience as Stavrich. All passed waypoints are still cleared after restarting mapfactor and alsoe after restarting the phone. Perhaps It has something to do with your head unit???? Stavrich also mentions a second point: The active…

in 4.0.48 voice stutters Today I noticed that the commands are spoken by a stuttering voice. Not always. Sometimes the sound is ok. But regularly the sound has hickups so fragments of the command are gone. And then I can not understand the spoken…

The new route grouping option works good. Great, but I personally do not need this. Will navigator keep reading routingpoints.xml files without groups in the future??

request: button for skipping waypoint.
Strange, this is the menu you will see when you not in navigation or simulation mode. I also tried version 4.0.27. When I start mapfactor, open the map and tap on the screen then I also get this menu ( but I am not in navigation or simulation mode)…

The waypoints are not deleted. In the 'Route Info -> Routing points"you can see that the waypoints are still there. My request is not new: see the older link from McDony in second comment.

routes with several stages (motorcycles)
I have changed all 8 buttons to Skip Waypoint. So mapfactor is optimally configured for my needs. I stil would like one single button on the screen that is directly avalalable. This is a more convenient option for me.
