Thanks Andy,
Very informative.
Hopefully that will come to iOS soon or i may have to ditch the 3 Year old 6Plus for the S9 :-)
I also think that the function should be automated, I stopped 3 times to day to use the skip button. It was extremely annoying continuously being told to turn left or right in order to route back to a missed way-point, when I could see the correct route on the screen in front of me. Some times on busy roads it's difficult to find a place to stop to carry out the skipping, and all the time I have to put up with verbal instructions that are of no practical use. Please Please do something about this as it's obvious from all the other post that it's a globally recognised problem.
Hi Andy,
I’m on iOS v1.0.10 too - which appears to be the latest version - and I can’t find any way to get the App to show anything like the display you have posted. I still get the same 'skip' window we have always had.
I suggested last year that giving us the option to skip a number of waypoints without displaying a list of them was asking a lot of users who have plotted many waypoints on a route. I also suggested that the Navigation app surely knows where the rider is, so offering the option to skip waypoints that had been already passed was confusing and redundant.
Perhaps MRA could let us know when this feature will be available to iOS users.....?
Hi Andrew,
I'm using a Galaxy S7 which is Android and when I posted my original message I hadn't realised that there was such a difference in the app between different platforms. I'm sure though (on Android) that when a list of waypoints is displayed, it does not include the ones that you have already passed.
Cheers,
Andy
Can you comment please support !!
Hi Clive,
I've been looking back through the earlier posts on this subject which was originally flagged up over a year ago and it seems that they have been either removed or archived. I can find no reference to them now although there was an extensive discussion titled ‘Automatically skip waypoint’. Many opinions and good suggestions were included in that discussion which, sadly I don’t have a copy of. Searching for that topic on the Community Forum now produces no match.
Perhaps Support put could let us know as a matter of urgency why there is such a glaring discrepancy between the two platforms and if there is ongoing development work on this feature.
