Sehr gelungenes UI Update

Das UI Update ist sehr gelungen und hebt CoMaps jetzt deutlich von OrganicMaps ab. Details der Karte könnte bei kleineren Zoom Level länger angezeigt werden, hier wird sehr früh die fast leere Karte angezeigt. Eine modernere UI für die Navigation würde die App perfekt machen.

Amazing Offline Maps App

Amazing app, lacks some intuitiveness but I trust that with time the UI will become more UX friendly. Only thing that’s stopping me from moving over from Waze is the underwhelming traffic alerts (speed cameras for example) and lack of traffic information although i trust this will be resolved with time.

Meilleur app Navigation Open Source

Quel plaisir ! L’équipe derrière le projet est top, pleins de nouveautés et améliorations arrivent régulièrement, je ne peux que recommander

Super App

Das neue UI sieht richtig gut aus und lässt sich gut bedienen. Dass man direkt oben auswählen kann, mit welchem verkehrsmittel man unterwegs ist, finde ich genial! Es dürfte allerdings stärker ausgeprägt sein, zum Beispiel könnten die routen deröffentlichen Verkehrsmittel deutlicher hervorgehoben werden, wenn man in der oberen leiste den zug auswählt.
Ich hoffe, dass die routenplanung mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln noch verbessert wird und beim rauszoomen würde ich gerne sehen, welche Bereiche ich bereits heruntergeladen habe.

!!Forced surprise UI change, less screen space!!

If you’re reading this and like the way comaps looks now, DO NOT UPDATE.
The UI (user interface) has been changed to add a large row off icons at the top of the screen, and a large search box at the bottom that CANNOT BE TURNED OFF or hidden.
So now you get less usable screen space to see the map (which is the point of a mapping application).
Yes, ALL icons can be hidden, but then we don’t have the useful ones!
It’s ok to add features that could be useful, but large impact new changes should be optional.
Why can’t we turn off or hide the items that now cover a large part of the map, and are SUPER visually distracting?
Are you trying to be like google / apple / bing maps?
Comaps was great before this forced change.
