Hi. The fact that the number of displayed Favorites affects the map's performance is obvious and understandable. But can Favorites excluded from display and navigation (and only included in the collection as inactive) also affect the speed of map/location display? During yesterday's trip, I encountered an unpleasant map problem. During navigation, the position cursor – and map – moved intermittently, every dozen or so seconds! At first I thought it was a location service issue, but changing Android <=> Google didn't make a difference. The rest of the voice messages regarding the distance were correct, and the zoom before the maneuvers took place at the right time, so location was not a problem. But on the other hand, the trace is torn and "angular". https://gpsjam.org did not show the influence of "neighbors" (which unfortunately happens). I tried to disable other services running in the background, but being on the road it was difficult to do tests. It is true that I have the Kalman filter and smooth panning turned on, but I have always had it like this and I have never observed such behavior of the map! The only thing that has changed is the additional over a thousand Favorites in the next category. So I turned off display/navigation for most Favorites in the collection, but the map issue still persisted. Hence my question: can the very large number of Favorites in the collection, even when they are turned off, affect performance? |

Map layers (like the favorites) can affect the map performance only when they are visible. Specifically the favorites can be hidden, but still participate in navigation.
Do you really need all of them visible? If not having "too many" favorites visible (and unnecessary for navigation), The best in such cases is to restart the device, as Android likes to cache things. Also disable Kalman filter, I will see if we really need it in next Cruiser. In any case Cruiser advances to a new map engine where everything is implemented differently |

If not having "too many" favorites visible (and unnecessary for navigation),
then the problem could be something else?

In any case Cruiser advances to a new map engine where everything is implemented differently
and we will need to check them again. 🙂
