@organicmaps Great job! Looking forward to seeing the next versions!Are there any improvements planned for the route search function? To be honest, I find the current design confusing.

@organicmaps I use the app on Android. "Confused" may not be the right word. It's more that it took me longer to understand how it works than with other similar apps.The first time I opened the app, the first question that came to my mind was: how do I create a route. I expected to find a "route" button like on Google Maps, but I couldn't find one. Or even a field saying "Where do you want to go?" like on Here We Go, for example.

@organicmaps For me, the "search" button is only useful for finding a location on the map and possibly getting to that location, but never for leaving from that location.

@organicmaps Then, after clicking on the "route to" button (I am using the French version, so the wording may be different in English), I did not immediately understand how to enter my destination. I had to scan the entire page down to the text at the bottom and read it to understand that I then had to do another search to choose the destination. I think this step could be improved with a search field for example, to avoid that extra step.

@organicmaps Another problem I noticed is that I can't reverse the departure point and destination (for example, I want to see where to go on the way back because there are one-way streets). I have to redo the whole search, which isn't very convenient.

@organicmaps This is, of course, just my humble opinion. I have habits that may not be shared by everyone :-)

@organicmaps And this character limit is really annoying! 😂
