I was wondering if an extra feature in the navigation settings menu could help to solve the problem: if it would be possible to disable the 'general navigation', except for the announcement of GPX waypoints, this would allow the creator of the track to decide which points are crucial. The poor navigation through (self made) gpx tracks is the only thing that's missing to make osmand perfect for me.Īs described above, very often Osmand is indicating to turn left or right where there is no crossroads at all, and on other ocasions, when it should, not indicating anything at all. At the moment I'm very busy creating tracks (on ) for our cycling holiday in Portugal. I recently discovered Osmand while searching for a good app to navigate on our cycling holidays.

is there an offline OSMAND for on my laptop, so I could analyse my route.I have GPSPrune that is very good, but I need something that also takes moving averages of points, to filter out the spikes from the speed estimation. can I incorporate photos I make with my smartphone directly " on route" ? And with GPX indeed is very nice, because you can plan your route online with very good programs, but then while navigating all the corners are told, but at a split you don't hear anything.ītw, I have some other questions, but are not sure if I can post them here:

I encountered similar things over the last months, one particular thing is that roundabouts are given an extra exit for free:-) So, needing to take the first exit, OSMAND tells me to take the second etc.

Is there a fix in the mean time for this voice guidance issue? (I have version 1.8.3, how do I update it, or does that go automatically?) But why doesn't it just use road names and normal voice guidance that it uses when you are just using it as a regular navigation device? Is it something in the way I am creating the route in the first place? I have taken to second-guessing the guidance and learning its behaviour at some junctions, which helps. It's as if the voice is just dictating a line without much reference to the actual map. However, the voice guidance isn't really the best - It never gives road names, if there's a sharp bend in the road it tells you to turn, roundabouts are "slightly left then slightly right", cross-roads are ignored totally if you're going straight through, quite often if there's a subtle fork in the road it won't give instruction on which path to take, the list goes on. Brilliant for saving battery on my phone as I don't have the screen turned on and stops me fishing my phone out at every junction.

I primarily use it for cycling - I create a route on Strava (a cycling website), download the route as a GPX file, upload it onto my phone, put the navigation to Bicycle, load up the GPX file, then stick a headphone in and let the voice guidance take me along the route.
