Customer Reviews
It Sinks! Big Time!!
I was like others that purchased this app, I thought that it would be better just having the US. The maps are OLD, OLD, OLD. There are streets in my city that have been here for over 7 and 8 years that are not on the map. This app will not let you enter your address if your street is not on the map. My sub-division has been here for over six years! I have to choose a street close to my house as my home address! DO NOT purchase this junk!!!!!
They really need to do some serious work on this app. and an updated more detailed map is a must!!!!! I just wish I could rate it with NO stars!!!!
Pure garbage
I've tried using this several times. I'm only getting black and white screens. And ZERO gps signals at all. I've erased it and reinstalled it twice and rebooted my iPhone each time. Still will not function. I would like to have a refund please.
Maps are AT LEAST 8-10 years old
I bought this app because TomTom has a great rep. However these maps are terribly old!! Why in the world would you give us old maps TOMTOM?! This is garbage!!! I want my money back and/or a free update of an up to date map package. Google maps is much better than this garbage. I demand my money back and TOMTOM should take this off the store immediately. Don't buy this app fellow iPhone users. Wait until TomTom wises up or just get another app. This is a big FAIL!
