Thread: The distance announced until the next turn is incorrect...

And you've already crossed 30 meters.

Use newer iGO (Pal) it can help sometime
And/Or set notifications to appear earlier and be aware of the difference

I don't think it's because of delays... Car position on map is always accurate... And the distance announced is always wrong no mater whether I'm going 100 or 50 km/h which would indicate the problem is something else other than delay...

Because I use a custom ROM I'll install identical version on my friend's phone (non rooted) to see if I can replicate the problem. Also, I'll create topic on XDA forum to see if any other custom ROM user has the same problem.

I'll try iGO Pal version but I doubt it will help because the problem persist in Here navigation as well...

Thank you for the suggestions...

I am ultimately responsible for the correct behavior and not a computer-animated voice with system-related delays...

yes, iGO_Pal works best with Pongo skin and in DE I still use it - also on And.14 - Loqendo7

I have no problem navigating thanks to verbosity level being set to medium, but it is just annoying little bug...

PS: And also taking the eyes off the road to look at the phone at every intersection doesn't feel like a safe resolution of the mater...
