Re: small suggestions for uNav

 

Hi there,

We have been working hard at uNav 0.58 which should hopefully be released
next week with tons of performance improvements and overall polish. So if
you thought the current store version was fast, wait for the update :D.

This seems like a nice idea. Can you report a bug on launchpad so that we
can track this request. In the future, please considering reporting bugs in
launchpad rather than in mailing list as they tend to get lost.

What is the motivation for showing the speed? There is a option to show the
speed in uNav. But it is not shown prominently as you suggest since we
don't see the importance of speed over other information.

Again what is the motivation for this? How does it help showing whether you
are zoomed in 150% or 200%? As a user, you are more concerned about the
detail shown in the map. If you want more detail, you zoom in further.

Feel free to elaborate on the above points as that will help us decide
whether we should implement them or not.

Thanks for your feedback.

Cheers,
