Thanks for this feedback Fedor. I'll need to give it some thought. Anyone else have views on this?

Auto-playback of the route is a cool feature for the first time. Then it gets visually distracting, though I've learned to ignore it. The bigger problem is when I share public routes with my friends - very often they think I sent them animated GIF and are distracted enough not to see the menu with download options and other info.
If I could turn it off for all my routes, that would make the experience cleaner.
