Bug Description

In guidance mode, uNav shows the value of the distance to the nearest turn to the accuracy of 1 meter (with metric system set in preferences). Such high precision is redundant. There is no need for a driver to know the distance that accurately. Moreover, constantly changing numbers distract. Besides, the accuracy of GPS positioning is generally not that high. The latter in addition leads to the fact that numbers are flickering when the device is motionless, for example, when you stand at the traffic lights.

So I propose to round off the distance. Rounding to the accuracy of 10 meters seems reasonable.

Thanks for the feedback, but there is so critical code in there and I don't want more calculates by second :)

I'll try another approach:
<17 = Same
17-70 = Round 5
71-150 = Round 10
151-350 = Round 20
351-500 = Round 50
501-1000 = Round 100

For highways a long metter like 849 will be more nice as 800.

Finally this was a so great idea :) Thanks Rover!
