I'm using iGo Primo 9.6.29.357899 with a Nexus 5.

It works okay except that the map view is zoomed out too far and it can't be zoomed in.

With iGo 8 there was a sys.txt entry that could force a closer view of your current position but with Primo I'm unable to find a way of more closely tracking my position. The map is zoomed out too far so that my position on my map is small - details around me including road names are not therefore reported.

Is there any way of forcing the default zoom position to be closer to present GPS location?

In map settings there is a view setting, low, normal and high if my memory serves me correctly.

in my version of igo primo you can activate or desactivate the close views in more/settings/map settings
then you can click on "automatic overview" to get or not a closer view.
it's like that for my version of igo primo

As of today I have given up on it and went back and sticking to 8. It has send me on long directions (last years maps) and crashed a few times. Today is crashed and deleted all my stored location favourites what I need for my Germany/Holland trip. 8 has never crashed on me. Better the devil you know and all that.

There stil is in Primo;

[map]
3d_max_tiltlevel=7500
3d_max_zoomlevel=2000
3d_min_zoomlevel=40
3d_max_zfar=500
3d_scale_carmodel=1
3dcarsizemin=4000
3dcarsizemax=8000
