Name of village while riding

Hi Guido, I am a big fan of Scenic and I recommend it at every opportunity.

There is one feature that I wish it had: when riding (following my a route that I have planned with Scenic or following someone with Scenic on Map mode), when I am within the boundaries of a village, I would love to see the name of the village displayed on top of the screen. Currently, when I follow my own route, I see the street name. This is rarely useful to me, as I am rarely looking for an address in a city. Instead, I ride in the countryside, and often wonder about the name of the village that I am passing through.

Best wishes

Bixio

I understand. This has been requested before. I'll add it to the feature request list. Will be a while though, as I'm working on a bigger update.

I add stops with the name of the places I go through so at some point I get told the place names. For example on the approach road to a town before it gets complicated with navigating through the town. It is also handy the as I can see the distance to the next stop (town) as well as the remaining total route distance.

If I create a map with Stops rather than vias will it display that stop name in the app (or on the CarPlay screen) as I ride? And will having all stops and no vias create any navigation problems for me?

 

You can use both stops and vias.
