What's New in Direct2Go
27.0.7
October 15, 2026
This update brings Ride along, a new way of searching the map and a redesigned Design & Audio screen. RIDE ALONG • See a route before you go: it rolls by as scenery, with the real height, the gradient at that point and your speed. Find it under Elevation profile: "Ride along the elevation". • Start, pause, jump back or drag along the route bar — from real time (×1) to a hundred times faster. • Choose how you travel: Wheelchair, Handbike or bike, Walking or Running, and your pace on the flat. Uphill is slower, just as in the estimated time. • Four sceneries (Polder, Forest, Simple, High contrast), gradient colours on the road, hectometre posts and, if you like, spoken gradients — the same ones navigation announces. • Elevation profile now comes straight after Route in the route details. SEARCH WHAT’S IN VIEW • The map now searches what you see: pan or zoom, and the list shows the places in view. Every place is on the map, grouped together; the list shows the nearest 200. • Range: show only places within 500 m, 1, 2, 5 or 10 km of the crosshair. The map zooms to that circle, and the circle moves along when you pan. • Prefer a fixed search radius? Turn off Search what’s in view under Settings ▸ Search radius. You pick the distance there from the same steps, and Show circle works in both modes. MAP AND LIST • The crosshair always sits in the middle of the visible part of the map, and a selected place stays in view above the list. • Map and list stay in step when you pick a place, on iPad too. • The location button brings you into view in one smooth movement. • Tapping a map button no longer also opens the place name underneath it. • Places stay on the map while loading, and loading is faster. DESIGN • Appearance (Light, Dark, System), Map style and Pocket mode brightness each have their own screen with a preview, under Settings ▸ Design & Audio. • Home Address shows your home on a small map. ON THE WAY • During a guided ride, What’s around me switches on by itself, only for places along the route. • Follow me: see how many of the 5 places are in use, and make a new follow link without stopping your ride. • Trial, off by default: roundabouts and street names, and surface and obstacles, in the guidance of Direct2Go routes.
