Bicycle navigation voice volume too low #20091

Open speleoluc opened 4 months ago

Describe the idea (required)

When navigating a bicycle route, the sound volume of the voice is too low to be heard from the handlebar. Earphones being forbidden while riding, Osmand should offer to boost sound like Google Maps does.

While not a solution to the problem, the loud beep modes are a lot easier to hear.

Most of the time, I ride with the screen off. Voice commands with street names are enough, and I'd rather not look at the screen while moving.

Increasing the sound volume above maximum must be programmatically simple if Maps did it.
