Web Dashboard

• When the user modifies a route, please update its DATE to today. This should allow the default sorting of NEWEST to automatically highlight these routes that have been recently modified.
• Route Creator does not indicate the route direction. The head unit nicely handles this, but when I view routes online, its ambiguous what direction the route is headed and makes it challenging to modify.

Tile downloading can be tedious. I suggest the following methods to improve the user experience

• Allow the user to search for a region to download.

Alternate ideas that may be more challenging and less useful

• Set a default Region, such as United States
• Detect the user's region based on their GPS to suggest tiles
• Detect the region of the route to recommend a download

Forum Feedback

• Whenever I access this forum, I see Recent activity (Community), and each time it confuses me as if there are many posts titled 'General Discussion'. This seems backwards. I would suggest making the Forum Topic as a small font tag. Otherwise, it eats up space and doesn't allow easy skimming for topics of interest.

  Excellent suggestions Zachary regarding the Dashboard route creation and map download. We really appreciate it. This is something I can bring up on the Product meeting. Your feedback regarding the Forum has already been forwarded to the concerned team.

  Further feedback:

  • I recently went on a trip to Colorado, loaded up my routes over WiFi and saw the preview for the routes on the device.
  • The next day, I begin my bike ride and realize I never downloaded the tiles for the region (but assumed I did, due to the Route list showing a preview of the map). This made for an awkward hunt for public WiFi so I could figure out my challenging route.
  • Please give an indicator on routes when imagery is not available for a region as it gives a false impression that the tiles are loaded and rendering.
  • I was able to download my tiles midway into the ride, which worked as I resumed, but Turn-by-Turn never activated. It seems the logic for Turn-by-Turn does not attempt to load mid-ride if Tiles are not present at start.
