Ratings and reviews

Used it when we had a hire car in Japan which made it really easy to use the in car navigation (which was mostly in Japanese when searching destinations). Just lookup the address or search the destination in the app and then send it to the car's Nav unit. Very handy to have and I may even use it when at home.

Very easy to use and quick to transfer to Sat Nav. Excellent app. 07/04/23 update. The app did a sw update to v6.50 and now will not connect to my cars Bluetooth. Having worked brilliantly for 3 weeks and had me posting a 5 star review, I am now totally disappointed with it. Downgraded to 1, as you can not give zero. I am happy to reappraise if someone is able to explain how to connect to my Lexus NX350H as I did originally. 08/04 user error! Did not allow access in system file. Back to 5 stars

This is an amazing application. It is very easy to connect to my Honda Nbox in japan and share a destination from google Maps to my japanese car navigation system. Wothout thos app my GPS unit in Japanese was just about unusable to search any destination without knowing kanji.
