What's New in Michael

2.7

July 15, 2026

First of all, your saved profiles will not be persisted. Your vehicle settings will be wiped - Control Panel Mode: You can quickly calculate a route with different settings, such as a different planner. - Lane guidance support: Works only with TomTom. - Adjust Camera: You can now adjust your navigation camera to suit your preference. - Local Roadworks: Displays roadworks reported by local councils and utility companies. This complements Highways closures. - Satellite mode has been added back for navigation. However, this is very CPU intensive, so if you notice any performance issues, use Standard mode for navigation, which is the recommended mode for navigation - Fixed the Scan Manifest in Planning Mode. - The Alert Sheet, which appears and notifies you of any closures along your route, has been reworked into a more organised format. The road closure detection distance has also been reduced from 100 m to 30 m, so it should no longer pick up closures that are unrelated to your route. - Live Activities have been added. You can find this in Settings (the gear icon in the top right corner). It displays route information on your screen while your phone is locked. - You can now assign a specific colour to your saved location - Saved routes can be locked in. This prevents unwanted route recalculations from triggering automatically and potentially pulling you off your saved route. - Added 2 more alternatives for each route calculation. So you'll have 3 options to choose, from each Planner. -Added an offline map that can be toggled in Settings (the gear icon). It works offline, so if you know you're going into an area with poor signal, you can use it. It's not meant to replace the main map, it has limited functionality and is designed only to help you navigate to a single destination. CarPlay - Lane guidance support. - Fixed ETA issues. - Fixed route recalculation issues. - You can now adjust the CarPlay camera distance to suit your screen size. Go to Settings on your phone and select CarPlay Camera.

1st impression after a shift

I used it last night for my night shift shift. I traveled up to Glasgow from Haydock. All round fantastic when it comes to planning a route, the satellite map helps when needing to find the goods-in entrance of a site. A con I’ve found is when you are driving your calculated route, you can’t zoom in or out on apple car play. Which is annoying as though I can only see about 800m ahead on the satnav, so it doesn’t allow me to plan ahead. It does however allow me to zoom in and out when I haven’t set a calculated route which is weird. Is there something I’m missing or did I inadvertently file a bug report who knows, I’ll change my rating if it gets fixed. Hopefully it gets fixed in the next day or so, as though I only have a 3 day trial. This HGV nav is so much better than Tomtom go apart from that one thing.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback, bud. Yes, the CarPlay issue has been fixed in the upcoming update. You’ll be able to adjust the camera however you see fit. As I didn’t have any previous experience with CarPlay, this was an oversight on my end. I had set a single camera value for all screens, which simply wasn’t the right approach. Some screens are larger, some are smaller, so while it might have looked great on mine, it could look terrible on yours. With the update, you’ll be able to go to Settings (on your phone) and adjust the camera to suit your screen. You can even set different camera positions for Urban, Normal, and Motorway speeds.

Best truck nav available

Best truck nav I’ve used. The routing is impeccable and there’s not an address I haven’t found. I go to a lot of obscure farms in Scotland and this has found them all. It has satellite mode too so up there with google maps for finding weird places. Well worth the money.
