4.11 - Travel Orientation, CarPlay views, and Way Early Route Turn by Turn

Hi G,  I'm sorry if these have been previously reported, but I have not been riding for 3 months and got my chance this past weekend to use 4.11 which I use CarPlay mode on my Honda Goldwing.

Issue #1 (Heads-up vs North-up?) - This past weekend I was not following a route, someone was leading.  I simply wanted to Track where we went.  Mostly it seemed to work well, but I like using a heads-up view.  This works when I initially started the tracking.  But with carplay if I change over to another view or app (such as spotify) and then come back to Scenic the heads-up view seems to have changed.  Goes into a north-up view.  So my triangle icon is going left / right/ down and /up, instead of being always up.  Going into the settings (via Carplay) and changing the view for this has no effect.  I have to stop tracking and restart it, works again until I change views and switch back in CarPlay.

Issue #2 (Light Mode vs Dark Mode?) - Again in CarPlay when Scenic is the main app on the screen it uses my setting properly (which is light mode).  However if I go to the CarPlay Multi-view, here it will show Scenic on the left side (small mini) and on the right side (is spotifiy and also up coming turn perhaps).  When I go to this screen Scenic changes that mini view to Dark mode.  Go back to the Scenic as the main and large view it switch back to light.

Issue #3 (Too Early Turn by Turn) - The other issue was I did a route home (set up on my iphone first and then enabled CarPlay).  This worked as it normally has.  What I was seeing however is that I was getting to curves, intersections, and turns early and scenic said I was still up to 100 feet away.  Even the map would show I had a disstance left to go.  I think this was both for audio and map display.  I use the map to help see how sharp / serious a turn is, but I found I was getting to the curve well before what was displayed on my map.  This was repeatable each time and did it for every turn, etc..

Hi @clarkml72,

#1 and #2 - sound like a bug. I'll have a look.
#3... I added a setting in 4.11 "extrapolate position" under fine-tuning. Perhaps that will brings some improvement for you. Furthermore I'm working on improving the performance / decreasing the lag.

Best regards,
Guido

If you're enjoying Scenic and are happy with the support, please leave a nice rating in the App Store. It would mean a lot to me ❤️

#1 : got the same behaviour but w/o carplay, just Iphone,  getting to north up , but I can not remind the conditions, perhaps the first time using 4.11 after 4.10 it seems to me; corrected when re-asking scenic to go heads-up

#3 : delay behaviour already reported  and 4.11 new magic button don't solve properly
