What we like on Karoo :)

We always post here to tell what should improve on Karoo, what are our problems with Karoo. I made this post to tell what we like in Karoo and Dashboard. My opinion:

As almost everyone I like the display quality.
The graphical datafields, especially the circular heart rate, the remaining elevation graph (in large size), the combinated elevation and distance remaining field and the e-bike rider vs bike power field.
I like the navigation route colors. Very easy to understand that I'm on the route or off-route, and the remaining distance to next turn indicate this state with the same color.
I like the climber tab, it is very informative.
If there is cellular or thethered WiFi connection the route and the ride synchronization is very fast.
I like the dashboard very much. The route planner is very good.
The ride analysis screen looks very good. Easy to read, easy to understand. The colors are consistent over the whole Karoo UI and the Dashboard.
When we hover over the elevation graph the data popup shows the selected data with the same color as on the graph. It is a very nice idea.
I like that we can see a lot of extra data on the graph: AXS gears, e-bike assistance level, e-bike battery
I like the Strava link on ride pages
I like the mobile version of the Dashboard. Perfect implementation.

There are lot of others what I like in Karoo, but maybe these are what I would like to highlight. I know there is space for improvement even in these areas, but in my opinion Karoo has the most modern and the best looking UI these days. And the e-bike datafields are best in class.

What do you like in Karoo?

In no particular order: navigation, display quality, graphic design, UI/UX design. Of course there are things that could be better (and things that just don’t work due to bugs), but at least for me the overall package is good enough that I feel no need to see if the grass is greener on the other side.

In addition to those items listed above, I really like the AXS Gears graphical data field. It shows me every bit of gears info in a single graphical data field.

I also appreciate how easy it is to create routes on the Dashboard, especially the Universal Navigation points feature. And I look forward to future updates that will show distances to POIs based on my current location.

I like a lot about the Karoo 2. Routing, maps, display, size.

It would just be great if the areas of concern were not about fundamental items like runtime or elevation data.
