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.

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.

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.
