BUG: red track over yellow track
I think that since the last update 1.419.1626 a new bug has been introduced. Sometimes while navigating on the yellow track, it turns red until the next intersection. I have been testing several routes since the update and it has happened to me on all the routes that I have followed to a greater or lesser extent, when those same routes did not mark me off route before. It is a very annoying mistake, especially in the race because you think you have strayed from the path. Today I went out with my wife's karoo2 with an older firmware and it didn't happen to me on the entire route.

Looks like this should be fixed in today's update as of 2023-10-19:

Well... things are still not quite right:
It failed me one time today (much less than in the last outings). I was going along the track all the time and suddenly a meaningless recalculation of several km marked me, (attached photo). Then, my friend who also buy a karoo2 this week, after each crossing, zoomed out automatically, which forced him to constantly touch the cyclecomputer to zoom-in a lot of times to try to see the track again, otherwise it was impossible to view. In the end, desperate, we stopped in the race, he stopped the track and reloaded it, and the same thing kept happening to him (latest firmware from October 19).
However, it didn't happen to me and I have the same identical track. Perhaps the difference is that I have not touched the screen or the zoom at any time, I was on the map page all the time without touching anything for fear that it would happen to me.
Finally, with his new karoo2, he has marked 4000+ elevation, while my 1000+, and it had the official HH support and without a SIM card, he is thinking of returning it and buying another wahoo :/.
And last, 2 cyclists have had their Karoo reset mid-race. All the time it takes to start they can't follow the track :O They told us about it when we reached the finish line when they saw that we were all wearing karoo
HH should reconsider launching a beta, insider or similar program to test the firmwares before releasing them to the public with so many problems. The people who compete cannot allow ourselves to be uncertain every week if it is going to fail us. This 2023 has been a disastrous year in terms of device software evolution. You should talk to your development team and get them out by bike more to test what they program....
