Tomas.... The three shortest or three cheapest should be no magic for the programmers.

Test of Android version 2.1.x
The moment the menu opens and I can choose the next action, and I press an entry like set as destination point, it hangs. Just like the other users reported it........

Test of Android version 2.1.x
I can confirm that under 2.1.94 address from contact still does not work. Application hangs.

Hangs from the People App
@hvdwolf I found the bug first with German language. I tried UK English. After a test of 3 languages I don't think it's related to them. I am using Android 5.01 (not rooted) on a Sony Xperia Z3 Compact and the stock Contacts app. It worked…

Hangs from the People App
After the last comment I hoped maybe it is related to the app language, but it also hangs when I am using English or Czech language. BTW I already wrote that it hangs only if the app is not already opened the moment I click on the address.

No it isn't.

Hangs from the People App
There is currently a bug when the app is opened by an address and then choosing a menu entry. I experienced it already with the "Set as destination" function instead. It is not related to the app you were coming from (here People). It is n…

My android device runs hot while using MapFactor Navigator
Unfortunately this is "normal" as the hardware renderer keeps the CPU quite busy, though the heat level differs from phone to phone. But you can influence it positively by decreasing the FPS value in the settings menu. Maybe you find a g…

Address not found
It seems to be the one in Kreis Siegen, because west Germany. And Marktstraße is found there too.

Map Update Issue
Tomas, please read the initial post again... You are missing everything after "(fair enough)". The question about update was okay, but not what happened after declining (!) it.

Stop showing private gardens
I agree!

Change spoken words in text to speech?
Your settings are fine. Does navigator use street names during navigation inside towns? I'm asking because that's the last proof the TTS voice is really used. Wait, another one would be to check the logs file. When TTS is used, the spoken …

Is TTS really activated in the Navigator settings? Default value is recorded voice.

Change spoken words in text to speech?
TTS.xml was correct to fix. But it seems you changed it in the wrong section. Please note the different languages and default one. But if you exchange ALL occurrences of slip road to exit, it should work fine for you. Another possible error could…

Strange routing
The only possible reason I found was a very short section with oneway=no. It's tagged correctly (though it's not common to tag it that way), but it seems Navigator does not IGNORE oneway=no like it should.

Direction change: say the distance at the beginning of the driving instruction
Depends on the TTS app you are using. I am using the German TTS voice from Google, and it is really good. But Google is not the only provider, maybe you'd be happy with another one.

Direction change: say the distance at the beginning of the driving instruction
No I already fixed it in German TTS version. By switching to TTS too and editing the TTS.xml and navigation.xml you can achieve the same result. Or hope Mapfactor will apply it one day too all languages ;)

Strange distances to next turn shown
The announcements come a little bit earlier than for the spoken distance. This makes sense, as the announcement itself takes a few seconds to finish and the user to understand it. During that time, you move forward and the announced distance would b…

Map transfer MSC mode vs. MTP mode
I only found out so far that in mtp mode the state since last phone restart is shown. So if you restart it now, your directory view should be up-to-date.

Are you using TomTom or free maps?

Activation Code
If I remember correctly, at the bottom of that form there is a button like "Use free key" or something like that ...

Unnecessary instructions given
I strongly disagree. When you follow a main street PLUS this main street runs straight or only slightly curved, a spoken instruction is in best case superfluous and in worst case wrong, dangerous. In either case: misleading. When you drive such str…

Unnecessary instructions given
@mdx Look at the Theodor-Heuss-Straße: If Navigator sends you here from south to north, it instructs you to "turn left" at the marked point - why is that? In OSM, it is only one way.
