Voice notification for waypoints in swedish
Quote from LarsLGD on 13.08.2024, 14:45Hi,
I’m a new Scenic user and so far it feels like a really great app, with a super nice user interface. Well done 👏!
But, I have found a strange bug for us swedes, and perhaps others.
When I use Swedish as navigation language I get notifications for every waypoint, rather annoying I must say.
I have tested with a couple of other languages but none of them has this “feature”.Is there maybe a solution for this?
Best regards
Lars

You should only get notifications for Stops, not via points. Are you getting notifications for via points too?
Here's more info on difference between stops and vias: https://scenic.app/help/stops-vs-via-points-whats-the-difference/

Quote from LarsLGD on 14.08.2024, 01:13Yes, I am getting notifications for via points. If you try and change to Swedish I hope that you get the same result.
As I wrote, I'm not getting notifications for via points when I try other languages.BR,

Quote from Guido on 14.08.2024, 06:58OK. Thanks Lars. Sorry... had to make sure there wasn't a misunderstanding.
So... the HERE framework generates voice directions even for Via points. Scenic is filtering them out based on the text that is spoken. It seems HERE changed the Swedish text that is spoken slightly, so now the filter doesn't work for Swedish. I'll have a look at that for the next update. In any case this whole filtering is a (dirty) "hack" that won't be necessary anymore in the bigger update I'm working on for October. Stay tuned.

And many thanks for your quick response!
I agree, it sounds like a hack that you don’t like to work with as a developer.
I am looking forward to the coming update.
In the meantime I will try to follow Martha (English) 😊.All the best!
