    <p style=”text-align: left;”>A dotted red line has suddenly appeared, starting from my current position in non navigation mode. I have checked the settings and can’t see where I can turn this off. It has appeared since the 100 update.</p>

    I imagine you are in map view? You probably have a track or route loaded and it is showing the straight line back to that. Check for visible track or route and deactivate those, should get rid of the line.

    No route or track active. It just shows a line a 1/4 mile long from my home across a housing estate.

    Hmmm, have you tried unloading the map, loading a different map and switching back, possibly clear app cache in android sys settings…
    Delete map and re-download… lots of ideas… maybe show us  a screenshot?

    Just suddenly disappeared, most odd. As I’m just getting my head round the app it was probably a setting which probably got changed while I tweak the app. Until you start using it for a while you can then customise the things to suit. Uptil now I’ve used mainly Garmin or MRA so it’s a matter seeing how to use it best for my purpose.

    Thanks for the input.

    You have the option under your POI’s to “show line” (or something similar). If you turn off the check box, that line should disappear.

    Had the same issue and it took me a while to find where I had ticked on the option.

    In my case, I had saved my shop location under MY PLACES so it could quickly be tapped and navigate to… and that is where I had also ticked on the checkbox to draw a line to it.

    I had not loaded any GPX tracks, and even after I deleted the map, the line was still there.  Navigating to other locations on other maps (further away from the SE USA) did not help, I could not find I could not find the setting to turn it off.  I searched under all the tabs, but missed it here.  Hopefully this can help others.

    To clear it, (in my case), open the MAPS MAIN SCREEN, then go to the SEARCH (Magnifying Glass) icon, then can select each of the saved places and toward the middle of the screen, (I am sure each layout will be a little different due to resolution etc.), there is a toggle next to a green flag to SHOW LINE… For some reason, I had this checked on some locations but not others.  For general navigation on streets and highways, I don’t need (or want) this, so I switched it to off and all is well!

    Enjoying the app and appreciate all the work you guys are putting into it.
