Difference between planned route and navigation

Hi, I have been using Scenic for quite a long time and am very happy with the app.
Now, a route imported from myroute app is displayed to me in Scenic as planned. On the trip, during navigation, however, Scenic repeatedly wants to take me off the highway and then straight back on again, this on a 50km stretch of highway. Although it is easy to ignore this, it is still a bit unpleasant. Why is there a difference between the planned route and the navigation?

This is the route: https://scenicapp.space/route/clJKzcPH
The problem occurred between the  Via 3 and 8.

When was this route imported / planned? Was this perhaps with the old version of Scenic (pre 3.5?). If so, this could be the reason. Scenic 3.5 uses the new HERE maps, and new HERE routing algorytm.

Thanks für the reply. I updated to 3.5 before the Easter trip on which it happened, but only did the recent update afterwards.

Just to double check... did you also PLAN (save) the routes  after you updated to 3.5?

Yes, I have done that. But since it was the first and only time Scenic has done this so far, we can leave it at that. I would come back to the subject next time. Are there any important details that I need to consider next time in order to provide you with accurate information?

Thank you.

The most complete what you could provide me next time is: 1)... the share link to the route, 2) the share link to the ride and and 3) an indication where the routing was different during navigation then it was during planning.

Had exactly the same problem with a planned route from kurviger.de

Nearly every point I should leave my track, drive 100 m on another street, u-turn and back to the original track.
Wow that was annoying.

Later it missed my points and brought me back to a route back home.
I stopped the route and did a new one directly in the app.

Also "extra curvy" isn't usable.
I tried that. During the route scenic wanted that I am driving on a Autobahn and do a sharp turn left to leave the autobahn again.
I think I must not say that this is highly illegal to do so.

I will see if I can improve the placement of the via points for curvy route generation. I general, I always recommend to check your imports and curvy generated routes for these "strange loops". Here is a help article on why these strange loops can occur. The article is about import, but the same is true for curvy generated routes.
