★★★★★
It looks like it might be an okay app, but it gives me the weather in Celsius and here in the US use Fahrenheit, but it gave me no way to change it. That's just too irritating for me.
★★★★★
Would be 5 stars but the speed tracker on the maps view works then sometimes each foot it turns to 0 then back to my actual speed it doesn't do it all the time tho so in reality for me, it's a 4.5 stars hopefully the speed tracker can be fixed a little, but it still works and is very accurate regardless, so I'm still a happy customer:)
★★★★★
Mostly good, some features are a bit of a fiddle to set up.
★★☆☆☆
No longer works with Google Assistant with WAZE on a Samsung Galaxy S7 edge 8.0 OS. with a 2020 Toyota Camry Problem has been addressed to WAZE who say BUG in Android Auto with Android OS 8.0. This has been the case for a couple of years.
★★☆☆☆
The premium features don't work. After paying, reinstalling, restoring purchases.... Nothing !
★★☆☆☆
Keeps crashing when attempting to use map, needs update for Android 13
★★☆☆☆
Given my car is not equipped with Android Auto this app is acceptable but not in the same league to a car with Android Auto.
★★☆☆☆
Set as Waze for maps, just crashes on S22U, no way around it.
