User reviews
Pretty unique app in what it does. There have been server issues in the past when it went down. Zero updates for a long time, the developer doesn't respond to requests. Would love to find a similar app that is in active development, as I'm not sure this one can be relied upon in the future. Currently finding clean installs on some older Android smartphones aren't synchronising to get any POIs. It says synchronisation successful, but there is nothing there. How to seek help?!
Very helpful when have plenty of POI
Very useful app for Waze users. I'm using it constantly whenever I travel abroad.
