As in another thread it has been advised that 3.1 is ready and only waiting for 3.0 to be released
OK, 2021 hopefully
Does this implies that custom POIs are possible now?
No, we display label with a name of the POI underneath the icon in map view. I will try to grab some screen to show some example.
When will custom POIs will be finally possible again and can be shown on screen too?
I would like to suggest a small changes.
Currently when we planning the route, the alternatives panel will show the estimated time of arrival and the remaining distance only.
I would like to ask to put the remaining time to it like you see in the screenshot. I put the new field here myself marked with red rectangle (sure the red rectangle not needed.)
I would prefer bigger font size as well, since there is a lot empty space still...
I like the idea. Indeed a lot of free space. You can also add the road number so you can see wich route you want to choose.
For example if you plan a route, you can drive on highway E34(suggested) , E313(alternative 1) or E17 (alternative 2).
Hi, we have this issue tracked under following improvement: NAV-16684 (Displaying only distance in route comparison when set to 'both' in arrival info is confusing for the end users).
I will notify as soon as we get this issue fixed. I can't provide any dates though
I've mentioned that issue already earlier in this thread. I hope that you would also have a look at my other issues raised.

do you have links to contacts/photos in your MyPlaces screen? can you still find your saved home location just by typing Home in address search?
This is nice idea actually. Please note that we use the second line in the route comparison panel item (line below the ETA) to display information about route segments along the route. For instance, we display there that there is going to be highway segment along the route, toll booth, ferry, tunnel. Adding road number there could be a challenge, since it is hard to tell what is more important to all users.
Also we use right side of the second line to display information about traffic delay in route comparison panel items.
Hi @MattiG , do you remember if the update was done from 2.3.7 to 3.0.0 version? Knowing what version was installed on your phone before the update would help us in investigation.
Additionally, do you remember if your home/favs/recents were stored locally or were actually synced from MyDrive?
I have found that we have ticket reported for this: NAVAPP-41098 ('Traffic jam ahead' toggle is misleading).
In the ticket I can see, that the toggle is responsible for controlling visual aspect of the traffic jam ahead alert. Since this is quite surprising for me, I will check it and get back to you.
I am having the same issue, with traffic alerts being given aloud even when the option is off.
The only way not to be disturbed by traffic alerts is switching off audio completely, but this is quite annoying.
In previous versions of the app it was possible not to hear these long spoken traffic alerts.
I hope this bug can be solved quickly.
I will check that, I have it on my todo list.
@tomdark , do you remember which version of the app did use before when this toggle was functioning OK?
Other workaround for this is to use Recorded voice instead of Computer voice. But for this workaround you have to be sure that there is no other Computer voice downloaded.
I was using version 2.x, then stopped using the app and did not renew the subscription due to prolonged lockdowns... Now on version 3.0.
I will try the workaround of removing computer voices, maybe this is the reason why I was not getting the alerts before, I have never liked too much computer voices and maybe last time I had deleted computer voices without knowing this was beneficial for the issue.
