How to stop navigation and pick up the route afterwards?

Hi all,

last weekend I rode with my Apple Carplay enabled bike and encountered some nasty problems: I was follwing a route provided by Scenic which had some 20 waypoints. Then I stopped to have a break. When I wanted to cintinue the ride, Apple carplay informed me that the operating system of my phone had shut down the app and that I had to restart the app on the phone.

I also tried to make a break by stopping the navigation on the display. In this situation the screen offers three options: Cancel, close navigation and save the route or close navigation and cancel the route. However, I did not manage to restore the route at that point where I was right now.

Is there a proven procedure to stop for a break and pick up the route at this point later?

Interesting topic.

Given that when we plan long rides, we'll often stop for fuel, coffee, whatever, and the carplay unit on the bike is turned off (unless you've wired it to stay always on), I'm keen to know how this will work.

I've just recently discovered and installed Scenic. One test was on the bike with a Chigee AIO-5 Lite carplay head unit, but mostly been testing it in our cars. On a long trip on the weekend we had to stop along the way. Phone was disconnected from the car and its carplay unit briefly, but Scenic was still running in the background on the iPhone.

When I hooked it up and got CarPlay going again, the Scenic app opened automatically and was ready to resume navigation. But this was just one instance.

I have the app set up as per its default settings.

When on CarPlay... I'd recommend what you did the first time. Simply don't do anything. Disconnect from CarPlay if you want. Normally, it shouldn't crash, and then you simply plug carplay back in once you're ready to go again. I'll look into the crash reports to see why this happened.

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 ❤️
