Beta for the new Kurviger App
Please note that the BETA with free use of the premium features of a Tourer or Tourer+ subscription has ended and the app is already working pretty well. There are still a few things on our to-do list, so stay tuned for future updates.
We are excited to share an early access version of the Kurviger app with you, these versions are often referred to as Beta. This way, we can include your feedback early in the development process. Beta software describes an unfinished product that can still contain bugs and might behave unexpectedly at times. This also means you can influence the development of the product and shape it into your favourite product. So if something does not work as expected, please double check the list below that describes currently known issues. If you found something other than the mentioned issues, please let us know in our forum.
Known Limitations
We are working at full speed to improve these limitations.
Route Planning
- Using on a tablet, the route planning is not yet optimised. While it is usable on a tablet, the UX is not yet ideal. If you would like to test the mobile view, you can use the split view on Android to reduce the size of the app, to force it into smartphone mode.
- Route planning requires an internet connection.
- There is no landscape for smartphones.
- For long routes or large overlays, the map can feel a bit unresponsive / laggy.
Navigation
- Shaping points are currently shown like via points - this will be improved in the future.
- Some functions of Kurviger Tourer or Tourer+ do not work as expected in navigation, e.g: Display of route information (closed roads, speed limit…) and navigation on a straight line.
- Not all configuration options are available yet.
- The map download with overview and management of the downloaded maps is possible in the offline map manager. The downloaded maps only work for navigation, not for route planning.
- The navigation simulation is currently just a tool to get a quick idea of how the navigation might appear.
- There is no GPS tracking/recording yet.
