Research direction

Start with the turn-by-turn example and inspect the simulation-related setup that was removed. Read the Navigation SDK preview and location behavior around that example, then reproduce the route using a real device location. Done means navigation follows the device's real location instead of automatically advancing along the route.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

jira-sync-complete

I'm using the turn-by-turn example and I need to navigate to real location. So commented out the simulation part.
But even after removing the simulation part, the Navigation is automatically moving along the route and not using my real location.

Is there any force flag to turn off the preview or simulation ?
