Bug: Voice guidance
I'm wondering how widespread the voice guidance bugs are amongst the userbase? Personally I'm a long time user of the app and love it but ever since the new updated user interface the voice guidance seems spotty at best for me.
Currently am I running 2.2.6 (iOS 13.3.1, iPhone XS, premium forever) and the SOP for me using the app is generating random round trips and following those. The app though tends to just give the first voice cue and then gives up on voice all together.
Another annoyance linked to this is that you can't forcefully close the app and restart he trip to try and get the voice to work (because resuming trips doesn't work for the generated round trips). There are plenty of other apps running at the same time, most notably Spotify for music and often Waze for additional info/logging.
Good idea doing a poll. Whatever the outcome I will have another look at this. It should just work, always! Apologies for the inconvenience!
One follow up question @nezrahm
Just to double check. Did you experience this issue with version 2.2.6 still? I did a bug fix for voice in that update. See here: https://scenicapp.space/blog/forum/topic/bug-music-in-the-background-low-volume.

Yes, I should probably have mentioned that. I did a tour yesterday with 2.2.6 and still experienced the issue. Seeing the changelog had my hopes up before the trip but sadly no improvements on my end.
Ok. Thanks 🙁. I’ll have another look
Hi Guido,
ich have the same issue too.
I updated to 2.26, have an iPhone 11 pro with the software 13.4. I reinstalled scenic several times, but still the voice guidance stops after three or four advises. Only the re-routing sound appears. No speed-warning, no turn advises.
I just wrote xou a mail about this behaviour.
The 'music-in-background-low-volume' issue is solved wir 2.26. I wanted to sell my Zumo 595 because I really like scenic, but I do need the guiding advises.

Thanks Thomas. I'm aware of the problem and that 2.2.6 does not resolve it. Working on a fix as we speak. If you'd like to be a beta tester for this function please send me another email. Btw... installing and reinstalling the app won't help with this problem. It's a bug in the code unfortunately. It really needs an update for it to be fixed.
Hi Guido,
thanks for the offer. I‘d be glad to be a Beta-tester for you.
