ETA is way off since scenic 3
Quote from schalex on 16.05.2022, 04:25Hi Guido, hi forum,
since scenic 3 the ETA (estimated time of arrival for newbs 😉 )is way off. I have ridden 1000km with scenic 3 so far. And a lot of times even routes I created with scenic 2. I’m using the app for 5 years or so, the ETA estimate was almost perfect in the past! I still have and always had an average of 50-55km per hour in reality. With scenic 2 this matched perfectly. Now I found out, that the time for a 2.5h trip is calculated as 3.5h. More precisely, my standard tour that I ride very often is 147km and 3h 44min is the scenic 3 estimate. I usually do that in 2h 45min that proves my 50-55kph average. the tour is out of the capital city and around on country roads. 100% official asphalt roads (Bavaria, Germany)
is this something you (guido) can do something about or is this an issue with the map provider?
and to the forum, did someone too experience this issue?
love to hear from you all and ride safe,
kind regards, Alex

It's a known problem as has a variety of causes which unfortunately lie with HERE map data. Here is a little bit more info: https://scenic.app/forum/topic/arrival-time-inaccurate/#postid-2764
