Voice announcements about passed POIs in navigation mode.

Is it possible to have a voice message about a POI you pass during navigation, e.g. "water source", "last shop on the route".

I want TTS to read the name of a given route point that I set. I drive with the screen off and sometimes unfortunately I skip points that I wanted to visit. A voice message would be very helpful.

Is it possible?

you can add a LoPoint or a user point into the route - these will be handled as viapoints during navigation (will be announced)

When planning, make it an intermediate destination and give it the appropriate name. This name is then read out.

You asked for the Android app. I don't use Web Planner. But you'll get an answer from the team soon.

So originally I asked about the android app and I checked that it works, your method is good.


But it doesn't work through the website, that's why I'm asking.


Thanks again for the help with the andrioid app.

Is there a way to add a "via point" in Web Planner like in the Android app?

I want voice prompts and the distance to the point during route navigation.

Oh thank you, I'll check if it works for me.

Are there any plans to introduce in Web Planner the possibility of changing "shaping point" to "via point" like in the Android app?

Hi,

thanks for reporting the bug. It has been fixed and a new version of the backend will be published in a week.
