Ratings and reviews

Has been the best for combining business info search and directions for a long time. But the routing errors and instructions telling me to turn incorrectly down a one-way street, or to launch off the highway just to do a cloverleaf back to the same road, make this no longer usable for me. So, I will use Google app to search and Waze to route from now on. edit: from 3 down to 1 star. Google search does not allow another GPS app to take over once an address is selected. Non-competitive behavior!

Always helps me find where I need to go. It usually takes longer during rush hour traffic though. I wish it had a full screen view of map route when you turn the phone screen sideways. Now it covers up half of screen both vertical and horizontal. It's hard to see the route sometimes. I wish they would let us rotate map sideway to see an enlarged view to see location better or avoiding accidents, etc. It's too hard to read details on only half of the screen. Thank you! Create full view option.

This app has continued to only degrade in performance, accuracy, and usability over the years. Routes are becoming more unoptimized and less accurate. The app itself is slow to respond, and has an annoying "feature" (?) Where it keeps running after arriving at my destination forcing me to have to tap the "X" to close it every time I go somewhere. Used to be the go-to option for driving, now I am looking for a replacement.
