Description
Tap this button to adjust the volume of the different sounds in the
application. A new screen shows the different sound types and their
controls. See below for details.
This button shows the current voice guidance profile. By tapping the
button, you can select a new profile from the list of available languages
and speakers. Tap any of these to hear a sample voice prompt. Just
tap
when you have selected the new spoken
language.
Tap this button to adjust the enhanced TTS features. The following
settings are available:
You can set the feature to read out traffic messages.
Whenever a route is calculated, the software can read out the
quick summary of the route.
When you cross country borders, the application can read out
the information about the country you have just entered.
All system messages can also be announced.
Street names sound correctly only if you use a native voice profile for
the country. You can decide whether the application
tries to read the street names in a foreign country,
use road numbers in your language or
announces the manoeuvre only.
You can also decide whether you want an announcement for distance
manoeuvres or it is enough to receive the information when the turn is
near.
Tap this button to set the verbosity of the voice instructions: how much
they tell and how often they speak.
