According to https://github.com/GIScience/openrouteservice, its using "forked and edited version of graphhopper 0.9". Its probably similar to what @taixzo tried earlier.

Found it now in the web demo. Looks the same as I remember: full of continues and slight turns when there's no actual maneuver and not quite descriptive of the actual maneuvers.

Today I finally had the opportunity to test navigation with PoorMaps (version 0.34) and OSM Scout Server.

It worked very well for me.

A few issues, which might be improved:
  • Using tiles "OSM Scout cat night @2x" you get a blue map, with a blue route/track and a blue position marker (where am I). This is very difficult to "read". Maybe the colors for route and the position marker could be changed, to work well on "day" tiles and "night" tiles. Or give the user ability to change those colors.
  • Voice navigation in German works. But the voice is using the English term "meters" (as in "turn left in 300 meters"). In German using "Meter" (without "s") would be correct.

Should I file GitHub issues for these points?

Thanks for your good work!

No need. Night icons is a known issue, likely to be fixed eventually. The translation issue just means that the German translation is incomplete, anyone can fix that. Translations are a bit difficult since it's a mixture of translations from a router API and translations shipped with Poor Maps, so the chance of them being "out of sync" is somewhat unavoidable.

Hi, can you add google maps to choose them in application, google maps have newest data base of streets and all changes. I use navigation very often but I have SailfishOS on Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 so I can`t use android apps.

Looking at https://www.transifex.com/otsaloma/poor-maps/, I see "German (Germany) 100%". So I think this is not an issue, which could be fixed via transifex.

I found two posts in this thread dealing with the "meter(s)" problem already:
If I understand correct, the distance unit is no translateable object yet.

No, it's against Google's terms.

It is translatable. But, sorry, I didn't check, it is already translated to German in Transifex, but that has been after the last release. So, the issue will be fixed with the next release, which is likely to happen around first of February.

good joke. Google maps is in my area by far the most outdated database I have checked in a while.

Coverage varies, but where Google Maps is good, it's really good, way ahead of the competition.
