          @isazi I have never had any news or notifications in the beta iOS app for over a year (I’ve been using iOS for so long). Before this, there were no notifications on Android either.

                        @isazi then what is my reason?) it doesn’t interfere with life, it’s just interesting and, perhaps, I can miss something interesting, for example, polls)

                            @GiPFELKiND let’s explain this another time, there is no bug on contour lines, there was a choice to be made: keep the maps at 1km or increase the scale to 5, 10, 20 kilometers. The only way to do that fast enough to be usable was to reduce details, and for the vast majority of users roads and trails are more used than contour lines, so the drop of contour lines when zooming out. This is still being worked out, and more details will be in the maps if and when the technical issues are fixed. No one wants a map full of details that is unreadable and unusable.

                              No, not true but I am a scientist and your statements are factually inaccurate. There are contour lines. And I ask again, you say maps work poorly. Specifically what works poorly?
                              I do not see a major issue with contour lines where they are now. Yes that is part opinion but I did not say what I personally wanted. Nor do you know what I request as a tester.

                                Specifically this tester says that he does not think the lack of contour lines at specific zoom levels is a serious problem. The maps are not missing contour lines, simply contour lines are not present at all zoom levels. As I told @maszop neither of you are precise with your statements. The fact is that contour lines are not missing they are present at higher zoom levels. That is a fact. I do not see this as a serious issue (my opinion). I did not state whether or not I would like them when zoomed out so please try not to assume what I am thinking.

                                  I just don’t understand how you can write such nonsense over and over again.
                                  What roads, what details? I’m talking about mountains in which the only details visible on the map are contour lines. Contour lines are not needed when viewing a small or very big areas, and mainly when viewing a area of ​​200, 500m, 1 and 2km.
                                  Outdoor watch testers should know such things, if not, maybe they should do something else?
                                  A 200m view is unfortunately often useless in the mountains. I most often use 500m and 1km (with the older maps) — then I can see the shape of the slope, cliffs etc.

                                  Besides, the developer when announced it on social media canals, wrote that it was only temporary and would be FIXED soon, and you are writing such bullshit here now.

                                    @maszop I hear you. The maps need more details, and contour lines should be visible in 500m mode.

                                      @isazi @GiPFELKiND one of the first things when studying geography or cartography is how to make usable maps. A usable and user friendly map is a map that is readable. Critical for a readable map is the amount of information you are putting in a map. Honestly, the amount of information you can put in a map with a diameter of 49 mm is limited. So what is the value of putting contour lines in a map of 49 mm when zooming out to a scale of 5, 10 or 20 km?
                                      Try this, browse norgeskart.no and zoom in to the area Bodø/Lofoten. There you can see how tight the countour lines are and in regions like this I think its really challenging to visualize countourlines on a watch.
                                      The Vertical with the map function is a great piece of gear and when hiking it is very useful to plan the route and follow the track on the watch. And it is really fun, I like it very much! But it is the amateur way. When on a hike and several days in the mountains you have to use a old school map for navigation and that is really fun too because you “read” the map and “read” the landscape/topography. You can plan such a hike with SA, no problem. But in the field I choose to take with me a map. And the vertical is a great piece of support for navigating and tracking.
                                      In my opinion the map works pretty well without contour lines at small scales.

                                        But back to the actual topic 🤓
                                        Next update for the map:

                                        • option to lock the map with north up
                                        • possibility to define the bearing navigation in the map. Now you define it by pointing into the direction and optional you can define distance and altitude of the target point. Why not moving the map to the target point and confirm the target point in order to activate the bearing navigation?

                                          @Stefan-Kersting The first thing you learn in geography is that contour lines are not fixed. As scale changes, elevation differences can and often should vary.
                                          The claim that contour lines reduce the readability of topographic maps is sheer idiocy.
