Import POI in MapFactor Android
For me it's not suitable to have hundreds of POIs among my favorites. The advantage of POIs in mca format is that You always can see them on Your screen, be it in planning or in navigation mode. With digger, I created a mca file with all mount…

My file manager is total commander. Choosing 'open with' will give You a list with all apps installed with MFN amongst them. Does MFN appear there? Second Option could be changing the standards in MFN app info

Recording GPS Tracks - Please remove the Dialogbox for nmea or gpx
Yes, know this, but the thing is that you can't see whether it's activated or not at first glimpse. I never record whole tours, but only some interesting track sections. In this case, switching over means fiddling around in the menus. The …

Recording GPS Tracks - Please remove the Dialogbox for nmea or gpx
Ah ok, it's the standard option which means fiddling around in the menus - not ideal on the bike during navigation. Maybe it's a good idea to have an option to put this switch on one of the fullscreen panels (like nightmode, skip waypoint,…

Create 10 groups and some favs in the root. Then try to move an item sitting in the root to the very upper group. I doubt You will succeed at the first time.

You could download the total commander app and install its gdrive plugin. Doing so, You can manually push around all important mfn files and backup as you like. Further more, this is quite a handy way to synchronize Your mfn settings on several devi…

Auto switching between night and day mode doesn't work or is very slow
Hm, GPS often dies in tunnels, so Your device will not know when You will leave it. Any precalculation will fail if You for example stop in the tunnel. Cell phones have many functions which are driven by its camera or a dedicated sensor having a p…

I understand, normally it wouldn't hurt that much - until you dive into a tunnel ... in this case a quick reaction is required.

Don't know whether it's the new version, but manual switching is now fine when global GPS is switched on

You are right. If You simply load a route You will get no warning, but You should have got a warning when You were planning it.

user is warned and he/she can decide - wouldn't demanding answer be contrupruductive for those wishing not to change ? Tomas, it's okay, but claiming it clearly as a simple hint or warning should do it, see RogerGatsky's post.

Yes, there is a warning without any option of yes or no, it fades out after a few seconds. The German translation however is kind of unlucky. If you put a question mark behind a warning you would expect an option to choose.

There is indeed something going wrong with day and night mode. I modified the panel with the mode switch as described, but whatever option on/off/automatic is set in the settings, the switch in the panel is showing no reaction until a restart of the…
