Enable routing vs tracking
Quote from mdh001 on 20.10.2024, 08:37How do we enable routing vs tracking?
If I start a journey to a destination it will initiate a turn by turn route. If I clear the route (not end ride) and pick a new destination, the app stays in tracking versus switching to route and doesn’t provide turn by turn directions.
I could stop the ride and start a new ride, but then I lose the total ride metrics which I prefer to keep for the duration of the activity.
is there a way to change a tracking ride to route?

You can try my steps and see if it is different for you a maybe I should be doing this differently.
- Open the Scenic app
- Select search to find and select your desired destination
- tap “Ride” to start navigation (this will enable routing and turn by turn directions)
- move the screen and select edit route
- select clear route to remove route and destination
- On the same edit screen, tap search to find new destination
- tap “end”to make it the new endpoint
- Choose the back button and then “close” to get to the main map screen
- A pathway will be highlighted on the map, but it is tracking versus routing (no turn by turn prompts)
It’s a small nuance….and I really like the new map vendor…thanks for all that you do in supporting this app!
