I made my own basemap, map and route, but I didn't get voice guidance when I started my planned route. How I get voice guidance in my own data? Is there any error in Navigator for ArcGIS Android?

Fabio,

I think what you are running into here is that the Text To Speach engine on your Android device is not working for the Portuguese language. We are currently working with Google and other manufacturers to resolve this problem in a holistic manner. For now, you should be able to install a 3rd party Text To Speach (TTS) engine on your device for Portuguese. 

Hope this helps,

-Brent

Hello Fabio,

When you route on this custom network in ArcGIS Pro, and then hit the "Directions" button, do you see directions with street names?  Likewise, if you are in Navigator, create a route, and hit the directions button (bottom left) - do you get a full directions list?

Yes for both questions. I realized that when I changed my android language to English - United States, the voice guidance works with some problems to translate the names of streets (in Portuguese - Brazil). When I return the language to Portuguese - Brazil, the voice guidance stop working. What I have to do to have the voice guidance working in my own language?

Thanks in advanced Brent, your are correct. I will wait until update TTS Google, in this time I will use the TTS in English.
