Screen on only during navigation messages

stebu shared this idea 12 years ago
Completed

I was trying my Garmin Dakota today and it worked well to navigate me along bike routes. It had a feature, which would be advantageous for power hungry Android phones:


The screen is on only when a new navigation point is shown. The rest of the time the screen is off unless manually activated.


It might be simple to integrate this behavior into Locus:


1. Turn on the screen, when a navigation voice command is given


2. Turn off the screen after a user defined (?, about 20..30 sec seems fine)


3. Enable this with a setting


If this is already possible, I would like to know HOW.

This feature is now already possible.


To enable it, open Menu > Settings > Display > Control on/off screen. In bottom part is possibility to define in which cases, screen should be turned on and also at bottom, after how long /of inactivity) it may be turned off.

Hi,

I know the topic is old, but my question is relevent (I think so):


This is what I would like to achieve but failed with different settings (all points required):


* Signals (beeps) when off track

* No voice commands

* Screen turning on when normally a command is played


Currently, screen is turning on when command is being heard. When I set volume to 0, then I don't hear beeps.


Is there any solution to my need?

Is it possible to have something like "silent TTS"?


All the best

See attachment.

Unzip and find 3 files !

By file explorer put these 3 files into Locus > data > nav_audio

At navigation select Voice Mute.
