- "This app is very great. It shows when cops are coming. Wow technology is crazy these days. Love it. 5 Stars."

Customer Reviews
No more iTunes control?
I have been using this app for years as well as letting friends know about it.
After upgrading to v4.5 I am unable to find many of the features that made it worth using.
The "Settings" button is gone.
Where is the iTunes control?
How do you use Caravan feature now?
How do you direct audio output to iPhone only?
I want the prior version back!
Recent upgrade brings instability
I just upgraded to latest version, and I am having problems keeping it running longer than 10 minutes. This needs to be addressed soon.
Not as bad as everyone is saying
I never post reviews but most of the reviews here are just plain false. everyone says that traffic disappeared. No. It's not ON the map all the time. Thats one of the advantages of the NAVTEQ maps. You can toggle it on or off but it's already on by default.
The new speed limit feature was really needed and I'm glad they've added it.
I have been using it for day's and haven't had it crash on me and I've been able to do everything I could in previous releases and more.
