Hello,

I am getting false "Far from route" alarms. I am 100% sure I am on track, less than the set 40m threshold distance. This happens while cycling, and I has even made me switch off the alarm because my friends were getting fed up! However, I must say that it works when I really am >40m away from the route. Help?

I am using OruxMaps v.10.0.4 GP

I noticed the same behaviour several times on a long 1000km bike trip. Got false alarms even when the road was straight and in plain terrain without trees that could impair gps.

I recently noticed the same behavior several times even though the GPS showed I was on track. So it seems that the problem is Oruxmaps and not GPS.
