Therefore, it partly deviates from the navigation of other navigation systems. An automatic route recalculation (rerouting) can be switched on or off.\\

 +If you are at the start or on a route and then you switch on the navigation, the navigation takes place depending on the current location, navigation type and the current route section.\\ 
 +If you are not at the start and you are Off route and then you switch on the navigation, in a dialog you can select how you want to be guided to the route.

 +When rerouting is started automatically or manually, starting from the current location the segment to a waypoint according to the option "Strict navigation Yes / No" on the current route is recalculated.\\

-If you are on a route and switch on navigation on the section of the route between the last waypoint before the destination and the destination, navigation may not take place.

 +For round trips, do not switch on the navigation at the start, but possibly start in follow mode and switch on navigation only about 50 to 100 m after the starting point. Otherwise, it can happen that the app at Non-Strict navigation leads you to the destination in an unfavorable constellation (map data, GPS signal) and displays the message "Arrive at destination" and ends the navigation.

 + 
 +===== Navigation type ===== 
 + 
 +The Navigation type (previously: Rerouting mode) defines how the route is taken into account during navigation and how the route section from the current location should be recalculated in case of rerouting. The setting is taken into account of automatically or manually started rerouting.\\  
 + 
 +The navigation type is set by selecting the option 
 +  * ''**Menu** button'' > ''**Settings**'' > ''**Navigation**'' > ''**Strict route following [_]**'' 
 + 
 +There are two types: 
 +  * **Strict navigation** //(Navigation can start anywhereexcept the last route segment. The waypoints are traveled in their order. When leaving the route, the following waypoint is taken into account for the direction display and a possible rerouting)// 
 +    * **Advantage:** Your route is strictly followed, also e.g. in case of overlapping route sections. 
 +    * **Disadvantage:** If you start the navigation in overlapping sections the algorithm may choose the "wrong" sectionIf you want to skip waypoints, you have to do this manually. 
 +    * **Note:** If the navigation instructions are not followed, or wrong turns are used consciously or unconsciously, it can come to the omission of waypoints! This is a consequence of the community's requirement that Strict Navigation can start at almost any point. 
 +  * **Non-Strict navigation** //(Navigation can start anywhere)// 
 +    * **Advantage:** You can skip waypoints while driving without deleting them. Works fine without rerouting or with manual started rerouting. 
 +    * **Disadvantage:** If you start the navigation in overlapping sections the algorithm may choose the "wrong" section. If parts of the route overlapthe algorithm may choose the “wrong” direction (or sectionif you left the route before. 
 + 
 +//Note:\\ 
 +Above the "wrongmeans that the decision of the algorithm may be different from what you expect for the given situation.\\

 +===== Modifying the route while navigating =====
 +
 +During navigation, it may happen that you have to adjust the route to certain things. For this purpose, certain rerouting functions are available in the app during navigation. \\
 +These functions can be called up quickly and easily without having to switch off the navigation:
 +  * automatic or manual rerouting if off route
 +  * Avoid roadblock
 +  * Skip next waypoint
 +  
 +(See below for a description of the rerouting and the associated functions and settings.)
 +
 +When at navigation there are wanted more modifications at waypoints or route than possible with the rerouting functions then there is to consider:
 +
 +When navigation starts, only navigation should be able to change the route (via rerouting).
 +
 +From 2.2.24: Route planning deviating from rerouting is not possible during navigation. All waypoints are used for route planning. This has confused some users so far.
 +
 +The proper process is:
 +  * **Plan (or import) a route** //(your original route)//
 +  * **Start navigation** //(with your original route)//
 +  * You are guided on the original route
 +  
 +  * **You want to modify the original route different to the rerouting functions e.g. modifying, deleting or adding one or more waypoints**
 +  
 +  * **Stop navigation (not pause)** //(because you want to modify waypoints or the route different to rerouting functions)//
 +  
 +  * **Plan a route** //(you make route planning with the modifications of waypoints and route you want to have)//
 +  
 +  * **Start navigation** //(with the modified route)//
 +  * Then you are guided on your modified route until you reach the destination or you stop the navigation
 +  
 +Pausing (and resuming) the navigation is possible as usual, but not for modifying waypoints and the route.
 +
 +For more info on route planning, see "App: Route planning, ...", link [[app:manual:pro#Links|at the end of the page]].

 +BRouter offline rerouting is therefore not intended for general route planning in Kurviger. It is in exceptional cases intended for rerouting, e.g. when deviating from the route (as in the case of detours or when consciously or unconsciously deviating from the original route), if no Internet connection is available but a route calculation is still required.\\

 +===== Speed limit =====
 +
 +In navigation mode, a speed limit can be displayed on the route. In addition, a tolerance can be taken into account. If the speed limit with tolerance is exceeded, a warning can be displayed. Off the route this is not possible!

 +By popular request of an offline route calculation BRouter was integrated into the Kurviger app for exceptional cases. This is currently the only possibility of an offline route calculation in the Kurviger app. For technical reasons, an offline route calculation with the Kurviger route calculation is not possible until further notice.\\

-In offline routing, the Kurviger routing options cannot be taken into account. By default, only "Fastest route" is taken into account as the route type.

By default, only "Fastest route" is taken into account as the route type. This can lead to a route that deviates considerably of the route originally calculated online if the same waypoints are used in offline routing! See also above at "Route Service" the information about "BRouter".\\
 Depending on the location and set waypoints, this can lead to undesired results of the remaining route when routing offline (e.g. avoid roadblock or skip next waypoint).\\ Depending on the location and set waypoints, this can lead to undesired results of the remaining route when routing offline (e.g. avoid roadblock or skip next waypoint).\\
 In such a case it is advantageous to have the original route saved as a .kurviger file in the device. This file can then be loaded as an overlay. By setting waypoints along the track, you can then calculate the remaining distance of the original route offline and navigate along this route.\\ In such a case it is advantageous to have the original route saved as a .kurviger file in the device.

 +BRouter offline rerouting is therefore not intended for general route planning in Kurviger. It is in exceptional cases intended for rerouting, e.g. when deviating of the route (as in the case of detours or when consciously or unconsciously deviating of the original route), if no Internet connection is available but a route calculation is still required.\\
