Sounds great! But I’m not sure what exactly a change to the auto zoom scale (default setting: 100%) will do. And, tragedy of tragedies, I’m not riding my bike right now. Could you perhaps explain a little?

Auto zoom scale makes (speed based) auto zoom smaller (\<100%) or larger (\>100%).  
i.e. scales the algorithm towards long or close range respectively.

So if you feel that speed based auto zoom is too “zoomed in” can try a \<100% value.  
Or if you feel that speed based auto zoom is too “zoomed out” can try a \>100% value.

Please see also the discussion in its feature topic:

> [@App: Speed based auto zoom control](https://forum.kurviger.com/t/app-speed-based-auto-zoom-control/4177/6):
>
> I am sorry to reheat the thread, but after traveling almost a thousand kilometers with Kuriger, I still think about greater freedom in personalizing the zoom levels automatically selected by the application. If there were more interest in this, would the solution used in OsmAnd+ be difficult to implement? This could have an impact on faster/slower time to reach subsequent zoom change thresholds, between defined min and max. [20200614\_213207]

This provides the option “select all” in file browser (Android 7) 👍  
I appreciate this, because I put all map files which I usually use into one folder.  
Thanks!  
And I have seen that the term for shaping point in German version is “Shaping-Point” now, consistent to website 👍 (instead of “Formpunkt”) - I have to hurry to update that in the converter, too.  
And - of course - I appreciate the option to set names of shaping points.

_Android’s storage access framework will become mandatory in the near future._

And it offers several advantages in older Android too, so better now than later.

I have just tested the new file management process and I like it. Finally I can store my tracks and routes on my SD card in the directory, which I have created. Big step forward for me.

A good point that I like is that the compass button is now also faded out when this setting is active for the buttons.

I just noticed that the “Biker Cafe / Meeting Place” overlay in the “Map layers”  
menu is not available anymore. When and where did this go? 😨

I mean the same as the "Biker Cafe / Meeting Place” (“Bikertreff” in German) on the Kurviger website.  
For some reason I thought this was already in the app as well. Checking on [OpenStreetMap.org](http://OpenStreetMap.org),  
I don’t see the tag which is connected to that information, unfortunately.
