Descrizione

When navigating to an address, the line that displays the route has a nice contrasting color to it. But that line turns white at the most crucial points on the route, for example at intersections where the user is supposed to make a turn. This is very bad for outdoor usability and at numerous times forced me to stop and find some shade where I could see where the line actually goes.

It's hard to scan, because oftentimes the white arrow line overlaps with other white lines that represent roads and paths on the map.

I think it would be so much better if the line kept it's color the entire time, here's a simulation of that:

I believe that this way it's going to be many times easier to scan when using outdoors
