    I think it is time to put this app to bed.
    It was made for a stand-alone Garmin Unit.
    The fact that traffic will never work with this app because it needs an external traffic cable.
    Plus all the other things that do not work.
    The app was made for Android 6 and there has been no updates from Garmin.
    They are not the best when it comes to the Android platform in my opinion.

    There are many other app on this forum that do a very good job and far exceed any thing that this app gives you.
    The fact that every change you make be it internal or external you have to restart the app over each time.

    Plus it was made to be in the Landscape format just like Garmin Standalone units.

    For "voodoo" to spend any more time on this app in my opinion will not happen.
    You have 2 choices deal with it's faults or use a different GPS app and be done with it.

    Oh, and what else will work with my collection of Garmin .img maps, POI's and Cyclops? Or has a better user interface, that also maintains consistency with other Garmin devices I have?

    It's a great option for head unit, it works, and the improvements being sought are relatively minor.

    It's also still an option for a mobile with a later version of Android that will no longer run Street Pilot which is my main interest.

    The other apps I've tried don't come anywhere close.

    If you don't like it that's fine, but don't discourage further effort and undermine others by suggesting the work be shut down just because you personally can't understand the value. It's also highly disrespectful of the great work that has been contributed so far.
