   @zachleat YES! I'd love a "local" mode which is like, instead of granular directions to a highway you know, it just says "Get on 94 west". You can tell me where to go after a few miles.

      @vlh @zachleat It is kind of astounding that no one has added a "We've noticed we've gotten you to a place you've been a lot of times, do you want to close navigation" as an audible prompt or something.. yet

   @zachleat Also needed… "Calm down, I'm just stopping for gas".

      @erunyon Wow yes! Now I’m wondering if this can be simplified to Pause and Mute controls 😅
