Thanks for the fully free, ad-free app but it's lacking very useful features so badly. For example, there is no way automatically dowoad all the medium location maps when you are starting building directions to the very remote place. It's very useful when you are in the plane, flying, and wanted to know where exactly are you now.

The best alternative to Google maps that I've found! I especially like the fact that I can set up a separate profile for when I am towing my travel trailer and give it the dimensions to get an RV-safe route. The only minor problem I've found is that once connected to my truck's display, it does not show the current road I am on. This is a minor inconvenience for the peace of mind of knowing I've got an RV-safe route.

Personal Info
This DAMN parked car feature is DUMB. I do NOTTTT need the silly thing marking the location I open the app with gps on as where I parked my car. Its NEVER correct. I wish I could disable it! 1 star, please fix this. this is one of the few things on the app I cant customize... WHY? Traffic status indicators is ridiculously thin and hard to make out esp while driving. PLEASE MAKE THE TRAFFIC COLORS EASIER TO SEE.

Love the app. it does almost everything that Waze does plus a little more. I wish it could do the weather when you have it on your Android auto. Plus, it should Tell you the exit sign numbers. like if an exit comes up it should say exit 3A. At first the app let you know if there's traffic upcoming. Now it don't for some reason. The other thing is speed cameras. It doesn't warn you about speed cameras anymore. So the four stars that I gave you I'm going to switch it down to two stars.

It has been more accurate than other truck gps. Others have had me turn on restricted roads where I was too heavy, and I had too many axles. This app had me avoid this road and go around to a different route. It would be a perfect app for me if I could avoid Tunnels! I haul hazardous materials, and I can't go in tunnels. I hope developers read this and add this feature. It makes me go to another app. I would give it five stars if it had this feature. 😉

Seems like a good application. But i noticed that there no way to report that a name of a specific location is wrong are that you can help to enhance the map by adding location names and type to the map. If you add this feature, you will enhance the map further more. And i noticed that for the Caribbean Netherlands map the map is not completely updated.

So far so good and NO ADS! Yay! I need an offline Android Auto compatible nav app. A real user manual would be great. What's really missing is a non-workaround method to save, load and re-edit trips, ideally on a desktop. You can save and then import a GPX track, but the entire track becomes a single un-editable node. Unfortunately Support is non-responsive. Six weeks since I emailed them with no reply (despite an auto-response saying someone would get back to me).

This is definitely a great app. It still needs some work with the maps, such as adding more business information. Honestly, that's not a dealbreaker for me. My favorite part is the AI camera assistant. It's brilliant! It would be better if it could record in 4K, but I understand that this could result in the device overheating or the performance being affected. It doesn't record the audio of the video being taken, but only the audio of the map directions. Still, it's a great application.

While I certainly enjoy using this app, there are a few features that should be added before I give the 5th star. An option to avoid U turns would be great. I miss satellite/terrain views being separate though. I really want to use the new Magic themes, but would also like terrain as well 😄. EDIT: Autozoom is there but still stays too zoomed in. Found a bug where the arrow teleports to the next step when starting route and begin moving. Not major, but can be disorienting in an unfamiliar area

Going to give 3 stars because it's free and works offline. Needs alot of improvements. Microphone input doesn't work well, misinterpreted all the time. Have to type location and I had to input the address to find a restaurant. This was all offline. Get rid of the battery icon? That shows up next to speed icon. Add X to cancel navigation kinda like you know who. Would simplify things. Not many points of interest. Not good enough to replace pay to play apps.
