Be aware that the application native navigation very differs from navigationg along the GPX route in OSMAnd ( and in the most GPX aware navigations as well ).
The former is calulated by the application, using vector map data, so the app is ware of road classes and conditions. Therefore navigation hints make much sense wrt the road network. The latter puts the nav. application ( more or less ) into a rather dummy point2point GPX route follower. It have advantage it can be used with any map, no vector map/data has to be available. But the same is also its main disadvantage. It uses maps, even vetor ones rather just as a graphical beckground, having no clue about the toad network context while following the GPX route. For GPX, sometime is really the best to follow it visually. As it cannot distinguish the crossroad turn left and the road curve turning left. Have you tried to used start - set of viapoints - destination approach of OSMAnd native navigation ? Another option is to used BRouter to generate navigation hints included in the BRouter generated GPX. You can easily plane and generate the GPX on http://brouter.de/brouter-web/ YOURS and OSRM are online server based services. Straight line is point to point, usefule rather for free terrain hiking or offroad bikes.
