Wishlist for my Edge 1040

-off button to power down the edge showing a simple ‘device shutting down’ text message. Forget solar, no startup when i load the battery. Just keep it off till I push power on! And no device connecting / lost connection messages on my watch.
-stop navigation easily, just a red cross in the navigation window like in the old times
-kill radar noise / alerts: when near a road with lots of traffic. Sometimes you do not have the time to dive into the menu to stop the sound.  My fellow riders feel like riding on intensive care! Just kill the beeps!  Make a speaker icon somewhere in the screen, press it for relieve! A click on the radar. I prefer a simple touch on the radar symbol e.g. That would be so much more intuitiv.

-in the dutch version you need to press on the word ‘searchfunctions’ to get to search for an adress or crossing. That was confusing because it looks like a title for all te searchfunctions below! It took me some time to recognise it as a button and the dutch manual didnt help me either.

    And on this note, give us the option to turn the sound off if we're stopped or the current activity is paused.

  • I would even accept if touching the radar icon shut off the audio or disabled the radar for some fixed time period (ideally stable). Say 15-30 minutes as the default.

  • I'd 2nd this. The reason to get radar should be "safety first" so the annoyance should be accepted somehow. This temporary off solution will make sure the radar is on again automatically after some time.

  • OK but then let have the icon flashing so we know it is on silent.
