CarPlay 4.04 - Roundabout Instructions - Request

The addition of directions on CarPlay with 4.04 is really good.   Turns information is good but it is roundabouts where the instructions on screen and the audio is very long.  I presume this is the same as the app on its own but I only use CarPlay due to my car and bike set up.

The app announces correctly the number of instructions I have requested in settings and the visual on the roundabout instruction gives the correct number of exits for the route.  The problem however, for me, is that the details the graphic gives is the roundabout name and the road name but no road number.  The audio will also say “Enter the [Roundabout Name] and take the second exit on to [Road Name] the [Road Number]”. Ideally all I really want is take the second exit  and the Road number with where to.

Understand that this may be difficult to change and not a priority at this time but the roundabout audio instructions are very long winded and the lack of road number is not helpful on the graphic.  Just wondering if something could be done with being able to configure this aspect?

Keep on the great work

This is difficult to change indeed as the instructions are generated by the routing framework. It also depends on the region. Here in my neighborhood for example, as a visual instruction, I only get the image with exit be in the center, but no road name nor road number. However these are known, because the voice instruction does say them.

Once I have a bit more time I’ll investigate further.
