      Hello,

      when using functionality "Distance & Route planning", this is what I got, when trying to slide towards the end of a route:
      1.jpg

      The marker corresponding to white point on a route is the red vertical dotted line in the middle of elevation profile.

      The problem is that its impossible to slide the profie to the left (so going towards the end of the route), because when you let the screen go, the profile slides back to position where there is no blank white space on the right side of the profile.

      To see what I mean, there is a second screenshot of how it looks when holding a finger while sliding the profile towards left (so moving focus towards right):
      2.jpg

      There appears white void on the right, but the UI is trying to hide this, and the slider gets back to the position on first screenshot.

      The problem is, that there exist a part of the route (the "final" part of the route so to speak - I marked it with the orange double-arrow), where this is impossible to set the "focus" to, allowing to compare elevation profile with the route.

      This works perfectly on the website when using PC, but on the mobile app there is this problem that I described here. For me, the fix would be getting rid of this "sliding back" mechanism.

      Thanks!

        Hi,
        In the mobile app, the normal way to change the forecast and position along the route is to tap on the forecast table while on the browser version you just have to slide this table.
        This way will allow you to reach the end of your route and synchronize your position on the route and the weather map.

        See a related thread

        Note that to get a correct weather forecast along the route you must turn on the Speed switch and enter a speed otherwise the forecast is the one at departure time.
        But I don’t know if you are really interested in the weather or just the elevation on the cross-section !
