Off course navigation alert

[drazde]

I found very usefull the app for planning and do my hiking activities.
When I walk I don't have the smartphone always on my hand and I don't want to watch it too much...

So could happen then lose the track planned.
Is it possible to have a alert when rec are too different (100 meters or distance configurable) to the first track viewed?

For hiking and MTB activity this features could be very usefull
Thanks

Please use Navigation by GPX option (https://osmand.net/docs/user/navigation/setup/gpx-navigation) and configure voice prompts according to your needs (https://osmand.net/docs/user/navigation/setup/gpx-navigation).
For example, you can leave announce deviation from the route on and turn off other options in voice prompts.

If you don't want navigation instructions, but only warnings for when you've gone off the route, the beep-minimal package might suit.

I honestly didn't know this features, thanks!
But the navigation could consume much more battery?

It will to some extent, but you can mitigate it by keeping the screen off
