As a Kurviger Tourer+ user I would like to change the position of my “center” and also change the default zoom level. I have a feeling that this was possible with the old app or that the default was way better.
With a big mobile phone screen, 6.7 inches, the center of the screen is way too far at the bottom part of the screen.
Also the default zoom level is also too far for my liking. This zoom level is okayish too see what is coming up ahead, but it is too much/cluttered to me therefore I would like too zoom in so I can have less details of other roads next to me and/or ahead of me.
Yes I know I can change both temporary for like 15-20 seconds before it changes it back to it’s default.
Maybe I just didn’t look good at the settings then. Now you have mentioned it I found it. (shame)
A suggestion for this is to seperate the two from the settings. So one setting for the zoom and one setting for the recenter. Because automatic recenter with your own zoom level feels great.
There is way too much road ahead visible with a screen this big. The screen gets a little bit “cluttered” that way.
Another thing is that with my riding position (supersport) I can barely see the bottom part of my screen unless I tilt my head really far down. The suggestion to change the mount is not viable in this case. Moving the center (current position arrow) more towards the center of the screen would be a perfect solution for this “problem”.
In navigation and follow mode as a user of mostly the 2D view, sometimes the 3D view for 2D and 3D view it would make sense to center the Position Arrow more in the middle. Fix or by setting.
In the past had some critical situations not seeing the coming road due to bendings and the position so near at the boddom edge.
In vertical format, the navigation arrow is simply positioned too far down. In the second screenshot of another navigation app, the arrow is positioned much more conveniently. The positioning used by the other provider is also used by various other apps, including google.
With Kurviger, it currently feels very unnatural for me to have to look for the arrow so far down. It also distracts a little too much from the riding.
If you add a via point, the box on the lower end will become higher and the arrow will be further up. So, as a temporary improvement you could place a via point (blue) very close to your destination.
