-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 anywhere, except 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" section. If 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 overlap, the algorithm may choose the “wrong” direction (or section) if you left the route before. 
 + 
 +//Note:\\ 
 +Above the "wrong" means 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]].
