Sarah, do you maybe have a little trick, as for your "fighting through it,"
that you maybe could suggest to make it easier, or not really, you just kind
a gotta grit your teeth, and just do it.

Subject: Re: Question about Navigon North America
I get that to but I just fight through it. I think it's refreshing the thing
as you go along for some odd reason. This has been the issue for some weeks
now, since ios7 and the navigon update was released. HOpe they will fix it.

Before anyone asks why I don't use Seeing Eye's GPS instead, keep in mind,
I do! use it, actually quite regularly, but I just felt for a change like
using Navigon today instead. No particular reason.
Anyway, today was the first time on my IPad that I launched Navigon. I've
also noticed this however on my IPhone as well. It seems that in the
latest update, when it first opens initially, you're taken to your map
manager just like normal. What I however am seeing is that before, I
could flick through all the different states, then all I had to do was
double tap the name of the state to select it, then go to the very bottom
center of the screen and double tap on accept changes. Then, all I had to
do was double tap my clock in the status bar to jump back to the top of
the screen, then I could flick down and monitor the download status. When
done, I could just again, double tap near the bottom center of the screen
on start app. Unfortunately, now on my IPad, and my IPhone, in this case
however specifically the IPad, although again I'm seeing this in both
places, I'm hearing the little chirp sound you get when a Safari web page
finishes loading/refreshing. It only seems to do this as I flick through
the states trying to find North Carolina. If I just sit still, I'm fine.
I'm finding that when I hear that chirp and the map manager updates and
refreshes, I completely lose focus. This happens literally almost 2
seconds after flicking from one area of the screen to another, causing me
to have to deadwrecken over and over and over and over until, god willing,
I'll hit North Carolina, then can hall major butt and double tap before
anything happens. My timing has to be flawless, or it won't work anymore
like it used to. I'm starting to feel that Navigon is becoming not worth
it. I do wonder though one thing: I noticed that when the map manager
did! first come up, once I got to North Carolina and double tapped, once I
accepted changes, it told me it was downloading somewhere in the ballpark
of about 200 something megs of map data. That sounds like a huge amount
just for North Carolina. I mean, we're a decent size state, yeah, but
come on! We're not no California, or Texas for crying out loud! So, my
theory is, I wanted to ask you all, do you all suppose that what it's
doing is downloading all of the maps from each state one by one? Even the
ones I don't really need per sé? If that's what it's doing, then that
definitely! would explain it losing focus and constantly updating every
couple of seconds, plus would explain the reason it's saying over 200MB.
Once that 200MB's done, it doesn't seem at that point to keep refreshing.
This is why I really stand strong on my theory. I just wonder in this
latest update, if anyone may know what is going on and can give me a
concreet rock-solid answer.
Chris.
