2017-04-23 Thread Jerry Cowden
Hello, I have OsmAnd+ 1.9.5 on my smartphone. My smartphone is a Galaxy S3 GT-I9300, Android version 4.3. Every time I attempt to update to OsmAnd+ 4.4 I get a message that I need to free up space on my phone. However, I have 8.98 GB of memory available and deletion of various apps has not

I have similar problem with Osmand. I can't open .GPX file recorded by Osmand in my main GPS viewer in PC - MapSource from Garmin. It refuses to open .GPX files recorded by Osmand. The reason is - they include followed tags: 1. 6.0 2. 0.25 If I manually remove those tags, I can open tho

Hi - thanks for that tip. I'm in the UK, but just set my localization to Australian (drive on left, kilometers/meters) because the UK one says "drive on left, mile/meters" which seems weird. Hopefully that will fix things. Thanks again! Terry On Sun, Apr 23, 2017 at 10:44 PM, OA wrote: > I'v

Bike navigation - street announcements

2017-04-23 Thread OA
Yesterday I've tried Osmand 2.6.2 to navigate using bike. I allowed it to use an old track I've recorder earlier. While listening to its instructions, I don't hear any street names. It's just announces - (e.g.) "Make a right turn" without naming the street. It's hard to navigate especially in c

I finally got a phone that I can mount on my bike and went for a decent ride with it today, guided by osmand. The software is really great. One thing I had trouble with is the variety of notification sounds from osmand. I had no idea what they meant, and didn't see a way to find out. Eventually I

Re: Does OSMAND App (Android) allows a user to ADD custom Markers ? (..as a Locus Free Feature does)

OsmAnd provides for 2 kinds of markers: - Favorite: location of permanent interest, such as home, family members, restaurants, etc. - Flag: locations of temporary interest. Such as a feature on the map you want to explore when you're back home. Or a temporary route point you want to keep for
