Great app Simple and easy to use. Map data is correct and takes me to my destination without any problems.
★★★★★
Good for finding missing streets. But... It seems that it does not feature the List streets button like the websitte does.
★★☆☆☆
GPS is wrong. CRAP NEEDS TO BE FIXED.. Needed this app to work for me yesterday, but it failed me dismally. GPS shows I'm in Sydney NSW but I'm in Adelaide SA can not find anything I needed, waste of time & data usage to download & uninstall... FIX FIX FIX FIX FIX FIX FIX FIX
★★☆☆☆
What happened? I used to love this app now it doesn't function at all. Has no results all the time and the map is just black. I've re installed it and it still doesn't work. Disappointed that Jen Hawkins voice is gone also. And it consistently struggled to find exact addresses when entered, you had to change rd to st etc just for it to find and correct the address to what couldn't find when you typed it in correctly.
★★☆☆☆
Has been playing up recently. Can't enter destination.. Keeps on flashing
★★☆☆☆
Wrong information Business are being shown on map where they are not supposed to be and I ask for hospitals it came up with hospitality like cafe's. Also business that are no longer in a location is still being shown on map and business that supposed to be in a location is not being shown.
★★☆☆☆
I have to give it a star? Can't get it to work. The direction function just skips all over the place and won't work. Used to use this app all the time, will be ditching it.
