NEEDS MAP UPDATE!!!!
Why pay $25 for 5 year old maps?!? Could be very usable if the actual streets were there. G-map has newer maps in other apps why not here? Save $ or buy another app with up to date maps.
Incorrect exit road names
This doesn't have a good map to start with. Some higway exit names are incorrect. These roads exist for more than 30 years. They need to correct their map. My 6 year old Garmin with no new map updates show all the road names correct. I feel I was betrayed by this app developer. I advice people not to invest in this APP at this point of time.
Very disappointed
After using this app. for several months I have given up. It selects routes that are way off. I have been testing it against my Garmin that I use on my laptop for work. It looses the signal constantly. I emailed the developers and was told that the GPS in the Iphone is weak and that is why the signal gets lost. I don't buy this as the google maps application that comes with the iPhone never losses the signal.
I can only hope that there will be future updates as this is the most I have paid for an app.
