I use navigation a lot because i like to drive to unknown terrain and on vacation this is more important. From my last rides i made the following experiences.

I used your default profiles(e.g. hr and cadence)  but for me the map was too small in cases  tbt messages are displayed and/or message from my iphone. I wasn't able to see my position and the route on the map because there were overlapped from this messages(especially important on huge corners there is no sign with a streetname or there are far away). Of course i can swipe the messages away but karoo offers a great huge display why shouldn't that possible to do it without touching the device. Therefore i created my own profile only with the data field elevation (default only on top of the screen) and hoped that it's getting better. The map is bigger but in case of tbt/phone message my actual position isn't visible and overlapped from them.

From a safety and usability point of view wouldn't it make more sense that the data fields are on the bottom of the screen and the map on the top? in case of a message (tbt/phone) only data fields will be overlapped but not the map with actual position and route.

I would like to request a map screen with data fields on the bottom instead on the top.

Best regards,

Frank

  Hi Frank - we agree to all your points and this has been implemented already released to the ATG as of now. Looking forward to the public release soon. We still need some improvement with the extra spaces, but that is to be followed soon after the next release.
