Location problem 6 407 Hi Ian - if it can't detect your location it is likely to be a permission issue of some sort. Have a look at the advice here to see if this helps: Why can't the mobile app detect my location?

"View Route" page - Uneditable text 7 249 I've not noticed it before but maybe it's always been present, there is a line of un-editable text on the first page after selecting "view route". For example, on one of my routes it says "A hilly c

Map jumps around in navigation mode 4 322 Hi Jacqui,It's hard to know why without more details. I would check your Auto-Plot switch though to make sure you haven't enabled any of the drop-down options like "Prefer Off-Road". Also, make sure
