Subject: Suggestion for Enhanced Alternative Route Information During Navigation
"Hello,
I am a frequent user of your navigation app and truly consider it one of the best available. However, I have a suggestion for a feature that would significantly improve the user experience.
Currently, during active navigation, the option to view alternative routes is not always available or consistently detailed. Often, I intuitively know a different route that might save time or distance, but the app doesn't provide a easy way to compare.
My specific proposal is to:
- Consistently offer alternative route options during navigation.
- Display key metrics for each alternative, specifically: · The difference in estimated arrival time (e.g., +10 min). · The difference in total distance (e.g., -5 km).
Presenting the information in a clear format like "+6 min / -8 km" would allow users to make an informed decision at a glance. This empowers users to choose a route that better suits their preference (e.g., saving time vs. saving fuel) and could also contribute to better overall traffic flow.
While alternative routes sometimes appear, they often only show the time difference, omitting the distance—which is a crucial factor in decision-making.
Implementing this would be greatly appreciated by your users and would make an excellent app even better.
Thank you for your consideration."
