ADVICE PLEASE Very pleased to have found that it is possible to offer a range of assumed speeds in Nautical Miles per hour, and to present a more useful route line (ie does not obscure important map details). But disappointed to have lost all voice prompts (turn commands) in all travel modes.

Some progress, but a snag. The good news - In "Boat" mode, navigation offers a range of selectable speeds in Knots. Calculated results seem to be mathematically correct, and length of route line is accurate on the map. The bad news - The voice announcement which should come at the start of the

Hi Ralph Think of it as - "Auto On (when off)". (Maybe that is why the developers called it "Turn screen on (if off) when approaching a turn".) So; Set it up. Get it going. Turn screen off (manually). Wait for the next turn insruction. Be delighted. :) Paul W -- You received this message

Hi Ralph Note, in OsmAnd the setting is carried out in a section entitled; "Turn screen on (if off) when approaching a turn". ie if the screen is already OFF, the feature will turn it ON for the selected time, then turn it OFF, not the other way around. Don't confuse this with your mobile
