Hi @miketorcy
I want to be confident enough before I say something about it.
I will seek some clarification.

Hi
Another one....

I have also started getting a purple symbol in the last week or so. It doesn't seem to follow any pattern and I have worked out what it is supposed to represent. And if you tap on it, nothing seems to happen.
Any ideas anyone?1 -
We are all waiting for an official answer from the staff!1

Hello All,
Got the clarification as below:
The purple icon is part of the 'Decide by Steering' feature available in the NavKit(firmware).
The firmware is self learning the common routes the user is driving, it helps the device show alternatives on those common routes.
The green blobs are showing the faster alternatives (like -1 mins) and the purple blobs are showing the slower alternatives (like +1 mins).
Thanks for bringing this up...
Regards

Thank you VikramK for this answer. So, in fact, we do not take into account the purple blog and if there are indications after the arrival we must not take into account. Anyway, what users expect from NAV4 from the beginning, is an intelligent management of POIs like on the NAV3, the latest improvements are just little gadgets unimportant as IFFFT.2

Another odd thing in this new firmware:
After planning a couple of journeys spread out over a couple of days, the two next petrol stations in the route bar will disappear. So planning a next route doesn't show petrol stations anymore (and of course the notification for this in the setup is activated). To "solve" this issue temporarily, I switch the slider in the setup from "on" to "off" and back to "on". Any clarification for this?0 -
Please add support for POIs ov2 with audible warnings, I am waiting for this feature, which has always been available on my TomTom XXL, to be able to buy a new one.
Without this function the GPS is worthless to me.2 -
Is this release also faster? I have the feeling that the whole system is more responsive.1

Any chance of allowing ANY vehicle to avoid motorways in a future update?0

It looks like a type of memory balancing issue in the device will occur some issues. When start planning a route, the fuelstation icons in the route bar disappear IF the route will NOT be recalculated automatically due to heavy traffic, see attached screenshots.
In these situations Advanced Lane Guidance works. Unfortunately I also have seen ALG failing now for two times on highway exits.1 -

@VikramK
The purple blob, what a confusing addition. Have TomTom lost the plot as I don't even understand what it means even after your explanation.
These surprises of changes in functionality is the exact reason release notes should accompany any update.
When will TomTom start properly supporting their customers.
Release notes please and if your software team is refusing to give them, then that's an indication you need new a development department. All changes should be tracked and noted.

Yesterday, I had a nightmare journey back from London, as the M40 was closed. My Go520 re-routed me, but kept showing me two green blobs with +4 minutes faster, and +14 minutes faster a little bit further. These were in fact phantom faster alternatives, and kept appearing for my whole journey. At one stage, it stuck at re-routing saying '0%', and I had to do a drum roll reset, which seemed to fix it. So far, not very happy with the stability of this new release.1

Hi all. I have I have the same issue. For me and my job this is very big problem.0 -
Hi all. I have I have the same issue. For me and my job this is very big problem.
Fortunately I am not the only one! Thanks for also pointing this out. It is easy to detect. Also it looks like some sort of motorway/highway issue only because I did see it working on other type of roads and I suspect this has been linked to solving the ALG problem somehow.0 -
I'm getting savings showing of 0 Mins and also savings past my destinations?
It's like the firmware is looking at savings on routes i'm not even taking.

Hi all! Following to this topic on the french forum:
https://discussions.tomtom.com/fr/discussion/1114655/les-bogues-de-la-version-19-101#latest
with no answer, can i hope to have an official answer here?
I have just made more than 3000 kms with my GO6200 since I installed the version 19.101 of the navcore. I suffered several bugs that it would be nice for our TOMTOM developer friends to correct. These faults are present in a random way:
- Purple cartridges that offer a longer course are useless.
-The green cartridges that offer faster courses that are displayed after arrival.
- Green cartridges that do not react when clicked.
- The device that restarts without reason
-The course bar that suddenly blocks 100% without ever asking for anything, so we no longer have access to all the information in the course bar. By pressing menu and return to the map, the course bar disappears, it comes back after a few kilometers without doing anything.
You noticed that too? Google translation.

There seldom are official answers here -- the moderators aren't the software developers. The software developers seem to be in a world of their own adding features nobody asks for instead of fixing existing ones. For what it's worth, I 100% agree with the first 4 points. I have not experienced the course bar disappearing so cannot comment on that. And I must point out that often things work quite well.1
