Hi, I am new to the app and really enjoying it. I have noticed a little ‘quirk’ when riding in Bristol. When turning into Hampton Park Road the voice prompts change language. I am not a linguist but I am guessing Dutch. The prompt says ‘turn right onto (pause) Hampton Vaag’ or something similar - it’s not terribly clear. Not a big issue and one I haven’t noticed anywhere else yet but it does seem to do this consistently with this road name. Anyone else noticed the same?

Curiously I’ve encountered it with one road – “Wellington Cottages” is read out in a French accent. The app tries to work out what language a street name is in, using a combination of location and analysing the words. 99% of the time it gets it right but there’s the occasional slip. I have to admit I find it quite endearing but should probably take a look at exactly why a few roads throw it!
Thanks for the response Richard - seems I am in good company! Maybe you could make a treasure hunt out of it - ‘find the foreign enclaves’?
