Same issue but worse, the app recalculates the quickest route to your destination based on your preferences even if you you want to stay on the same specified route. This is especially annoying when you are on a loop and it just redirects back to where you started in the shortest way possible. The app could do with a feature to disable route recalculation and just say "you are moving away from your route" and "you are moving back towards your route".
