Incorrect display of destination address

Bug Reports

ABRP correctly routes to the destination address that I enter, but in route planning and navigation it often displays only the city name (e.g. "Melbourne") rather than the full destination address.Why this is a problem: Many suburbs and towns contain streets with identical names. When ABRP only displays "Melbourne", I cannot easily verify that I selected the correct destination, especially while driving. Other navigation apps such as Google Maps, Apple Maps and Waze prominently display the full destination address so users can confirm they are navigating to the intended location.Expected behaviour: ABRP should display the full destination address, or at a minimum:Street number and street nameSuburb/townStateExample:15 High Street, Prahran VICinstead of:Melbourne

Where does this happen?

    Hello @ABRP User #2605306,

    Could you send us an example address that you had this issue with?

    Any address for a location in Melbourne suburbs will display just Melbounre, so if you have a street with the same name in different suburbs you will see multiple options to choose and this is what gets displayed while navigating, however to answer your question the specific address was 1A Deakin St, Hampton Victoria. See Below, Ive also attached how its displayed in Google maps for reference, Hope this helps

    Regards
