  1. It would be great if the distance of the alerts was customizable - so that warnings could be provided earlier.

    Hey,

    Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.

    We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.

    Thanks!

    v.4.88 and earlier would display in tenths of a mile how far to the hazard (Police, Object On Road, Etc.). The latest version no longer shows this. Also, you could touch another icon (say a yellow triangle) on the map and it would a) say what it was and b) how far away it was from your current position. This is not possible now with the later versions. Some blogs were stating this was requested by law enforcement but I tend to doubt that. Not sure if this was intentional or an oversight but it's keeping me (and some others) using older versions (giving up the Coolwalk split screen for a version that works). Lastly, not related, the later versions have a GPS bug for it's current position yielding constant zooming in and out.
