@devemux86 thanks for your efforts! Please be aware that I'm unfortunately not able to test the new beta and its settings before next week. |

I tested this very setting today during a short trip with the car @devemux86... Unfortunately there is no change in behaviour to the previous implementation - GPS track recording and counting distance travelled stopped as soon as the screen was switched off... 😞 I had no time yet to check the suggestion from @0709wiwiwi, tough. |

@bios4 Thanks for the testing. This could be good news in the sense that we don't need the "Allow all the time" location permission, But this also mean that the problem is somewhere in your device settings? |

Things are working fine here, a full test/report (if needed) later. Some info: Your Routing options may "break" slightly when using this: My "No Motorways/Tolls" Routing Profile (previously set to 5/5 on both) had only 30% for "Motorways". The "Curvy/Fun" profile needed a bit of work, too. Not a big problem, but just ensure you know your settings before trying the new App build 😄 On a related note, this old BRouter issue persists: In short, if I opt for "Toll-free" roads, BRouter/Cruiser will not obey the For example, if the French motorway network had "free for motorcycle" sections then it would be impossible to take advantage of them. In my part of the world, the Humber Bridge is a good tester for this. |

About BRouter tags, they must first include them in their database so they are available in routing: cc @afischerdev |

Ich hab das mit den Routing-Vermeidungsstufen mal schnell ausprobiert. Für die "schnellen Routen" hab ich mal folgendes eingestellt: Für die "schnellen+kurvigen Routen" hab ich mal folgendes eingestellt:("kurz" umbenannt in Schnell+kurvig) Für die "kurvigen Routen" hab ich mal folgendes eingestellt: Für die "extra Kurvigen Routen": Nur mal so als GROBE Orientierung. Muss letztendlich jeder selbst nach seinem Geschmack optimieren..... |

When making route reports, please always attach the routes so we can examine them. For the "unpaved" information, a BRouter link is better as we can examine the road tags in the Data tool: |

Installed b3 and tried to calculate this route I shorten the route and set the start point nearer to the same end point and a 40km route was calculated with brouter. When the route is longer then something about 50km I get "brouter memory limit reached" I changed the brouter profile to curvey route and brouter calculates the route. I manually set all options like avoid unclassified roads, avoid residetial road etc. to off an the the 67km route is calculated with fasted route. |

I discovered a bug while importing tracks. I have exported the tracks from one device and wanted to update those on the 2nd device. It doesn't update the existing track folder with the missing tracks and also renaming the existing track folder and importing again results in a new track folder but with Zero files. The zip file on the storage contains all tracks from the other device. Also when trying to export a single track as gpx file and import on the other device, the error message comes up: "there is no tracks". It seems to be an issue only with the tracks, routes import seem to work ok |

works now, thanks a lot for the quick fix. But have the next question. When I store the GPS track, I want to store it with all data including height and speed so that I can recover the track diagramm from the gps recording. This doesn't seem to work. When I load again the individual track name from the imported track folder on the other device, then it automatically generates a route from it. This is a good function, but I also want to have the option to load the original track data with speed and height data from that imported track. Is this somehow possible? |
Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
-
|
I have tested it with the individual gpx with import from GPS recording. The problem here is that it only imports the height, not the speed data. From my point of view this should work with both data, height and speed. Additionally I think it should also work via the my tracks collection. At least this would be more intuitive for me. |

|
@DolomitesTom If you mean to save the GPS recorded tracks in My collection, GPX does not support the speed, so it is complicated to save speed in storage. |
Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.

|
@devemux86 ok thanks for the feedback, I will make a new post when I can save some time. In the recorded track in my collection I can see the track diagram, but unfortunately this also contains only the height, not the speed. |

Found a UI glitch yesterday (note: this was still observed with Beta 4).

Yes, I think it's all related to short-term recreation in nature – that is, picnics. Whether it's during motorcycle trips or, especially now, during bicycle trips. Of course, with the exception of the aforementioned public transport stops or shopping cart shelters, which are not very suitable for picnics 😀 (although I often took shelter from the rain with my motorcycle at the long-distance bus stop 😉). |

@DolomitesTom When making reports, please invest time and describe with details your steps.
We can only guess your steps: Share action in Routing menu or Share in My collection / Routes? I tried both and the shared route files in json or kurviger format are correct files that work fine.
Recognized by what, the Android file managers? I exported a route as json file, tap the json file with Google Files or Total Commander Perhaps you have set another app to open automatically the json files. |

Share action in Routing menu ... then Share via WhatsApp and Directly open the file in the other phone in the Chat without going over a file manager. It asks to open with and proposes Cruiser by default. I just use Cruiser and then the error message appears. No Time this morning to Play around. Tour is coming. |

I only use landscape mode and in real navigation mode it looks different then in this screenshot, (which comes from simulation mode?) much smaller. I wouldn't say I need 40px, but something around 35 px, but when it is not available, I can't test anything while navigation. |

This would be very nice, because I had till now no time to test it live. At the end of the week it will work. To my impression there is always a difference between live and simulation mode. |

By the way, former discussion. I find myself wanting to drive an electric car instead of riding my motorcycle more and more often, especially in winter. Maybe it's a sign that I'm getting old 🙈. For that reason, it would be advantageous if Cruiser, the best Navigation app ever, ran on Android Auto. How much effort would that take? |

@DolomitesTom Android Auto is extremely restricted and requires to write a new app. With minimal settings allowed, it can never be as flexible as an Android app. |

The "Motorcycle YouTube" community has been going crazy about the various display devices over the past year or so. They do offer a cheap (and convenient) way of navigating without strapping the phone (and your personal data) to the bike. However, of all the various reviews/collabs I've watched, I think only 1 actually stressed that the App needs to support the screen, and that's it not simply a mirror of the phone. Imaging getting subbed-up on CaliKurvMRA-Viga or whatever and finding out that your App isn't compatible 😒 Winter riding? Not if it's wet/nasty but I'll kit-up for an hour's ride if it's a bit chilly but otherwise dry/sunny. On topic... The Routing settings seem much stricter. I've had to turn off all the Road avoidances on the "Fastest" profile so that I can place ShapingPoints along "fun" roads without ignoring them. I'd say that the "maths" has been reworked and some % values may need reviewing on some Routing Profiles. This is actually better for me as I generally load Cruiser with a pre-planned route more than I do "A-B" navigation, so I nearly always want a faithful reproduction of what I saw on my Desktop... That is always best with no avoidances and plenty of ShapingPoints! This means that the "Curvy" profile may offer a better result, but need to test more and play with the % values. |

With this version Cruiser uses the location data even if the location service is turned off and it is not necessary to use it because there is no navigation. Why is this necessary? Can you change this again please? When the location service is turned off by System then I don't want any app to use my location. |

Ah ok that's 👍. For which notification does it stand for? |

Android services are required to show a notification icon to inform the user for their operation. This service handles the location when GPS is enabled and allows the app to work in background, screen off, etc. |

Thanks, this information has helped already. It's a route where I live, therefore I don't want to provide the route. Other routes in my collection contain obviously the elevation data and the diagram is displayed. |

Routes that contain elevation data also display the ascend / descend (with arrows) in their info. Most routers, like BRouter (offline), should provide elevation data in the calculated routes. |
