Today the website received a massive update. This update includes [Waypoint Names](https://forum.kurviger.com/t/website-waypoint-names/216/30) and [Shaping Points](https://forum.kurviger.com/t/website-waypoint-types/1142/9). For details on how to use them have a look here: > [@Website: Waypoint names](https://forum.kurviger.com/t/website-waypoint-names/216/30): > > It’s now possible to assign names to waypoints in the website. You can do this either in the waypoint list or in the waypoint popup: [Screenshot from 2020-07-03 10-12-57] [Screenshot from 2020-07-03 10-13-49] Currently, exporting waypoint names is not available (except .kurviger / url / qr-code). > [@Website: Waypoint types](https://forum.kurviger.com/t/website-waypoint-types/1142/9): > > The website now offers the option to change the waypoint type to shaping points. You can do this using a few different options: [Screenshot from 2020-07-03 10-05-40] (click on the number) [Screenshot from 2020-07-03 10-04-41] [Screenshot from 2020-07-03 10-01-42] [Screenshot from 2020-07-03 10-00-23] [Screenshot from 2020-07-03 10-08-49] Also when clicking on the route itself, these will be automatically shaping points now. Currently, exporting shaping points is not available (except .ku… The website received new waypoint markers (green=start, blue=waypoint, black=shaping point, red=destination). ![Screenshot from 2020-07-03 10-39-05](https://forum.kurviger.com/uploads/default/original/2X/2/2cf666b4b99957b01e58c05ec9d9fbf82ee6b29d.png) In addition a lot of minor things were tuned. The website received quite a speed boost, especially when opening the website or a route. Opening pre-planned routes should remove a lot of potential issues that existed with geocoding providers. Like placing a waypoint at the wrong spot or being unable to find a location. Tons of smaller improvements. Please let us know how these new features work out for you or if you have any questions. Enjoy your rides 🏍 🏎 ---

What browser are you using, is it the same on different browsers? Does this happen with every route or only on a specific route? ---

Works well. Is there a feature to convert all waypoints to shaping points? I obviously only created waypoints before shaping points were possible. ---

First of all I feel that I have to apologize: I hadn’t written any posts and comments here in the forum for quite a while. Although both boldtrn and devmux86 did a really good job by providing even more features for Kurviger’s app and website. But due to the current Corona situation I had a lot of work to do. And almost no occasions to drive my bike. In fact I even didn’t use my car for almost four month. Even more I now take notice of all those new features. And this week we’ll finally be able to test them all because we (my wife and me) will take a little trip to Austria. First part will be a Gloßglockner-tour, then we’ll head for Wien/Vienna. This time we won’t take our bikes but my Mazda MX-5 (RF) instead. But I already know that Kurviger also makes roadster trips a lot more fun than any other navigation system available for cars. Today I planned Großglockner and I immediately noticed the new functionality concerning waypoint names (including the changed usage of the name fields) and types (via and shaping points). And I seamlessly was able to share the route with the Kurviger app preserving all the waypoint types. Great - I love it! 👍🏽 😃 I will report my experiences after returning from [our trip](https://kurv.gr/gRvYs). ---

Can anyone please explain the difference between waypoint names, shaping points and waypoint markers in german language? My english is not good enough to understand the difference or when to use what or how. I didn’t find the explination in the german documentation yet. Thanks BR juschka ---
