Unnecessary Safety Camera Alerts
Quote from Rainbow57uk on 04.04.2024, 03:41On a ride yesterday I was within 500 yards of my destination when a safety camera alert popped up. There were no safety cameras between me and my destination and the indicated distance appeared to be 7 miles away, well past the destination distance. I am a new user so still getting used to the app (very impressed so far!) so I may have misread, if not then I think flagging cameras past the end point is superfluous and distracting.

Did you save your ride by any chance? If so, would you mind sharing it with me (select ride from your recorded rides, and the use "share" button below the map preview. If you want you can email it to me directly. Use the "email" button at the bottom of the help page.

You can also make safety cams visible on the map. To do this, in the main screen, tap the 3rd button from the top left. There you can activate several "layers" to show on the map, including safety cameras.
