I have just checked with Beeline and found it does not provide what I need:
Which is: miles completed on the ride, miles to the next junction and an arrow pointing the direction of the turn all on the one screen. In order to find miles completed you have to scroll to another screen then come back to the main screen to find the miles to the turn and the arrow.
Beeline said: Sorry, we can't do that yet.

Had mine since last year. No problems at all, thoroughly recommend it. So easy to use and when you leave the route it shows where you are with a dotted line until you get back on the route.

It's a small screen which has benefits of a long battery life, minimal things to distract you and a tiny addition to the handlebar. But the con is that it is nowhere near as adaptable as devices with bigger screens. You have to accept it for what it is which is a great turn by turn navigation only device. You want more stuff, then it's not the right thing.
I do accept its limitations, which is a shame because it comes at a nice price, much less than the more comprehensive units which are just so expensive.

Have you thought about using it as it stands and foregoing some of the data you’d like to see? As in miles cycled? I’m not suggesting it’s not important , but can you live without having to swipe to see it?
