Ratings and reviews

Lacks the ability to plan a trip with multiple destinations. My previous navigation device's companion app had the ability to add multiple destinations and then allowed you to rearrange the order with drag and drop which would update the path on the map display before allowing you to send to the device. This is a really useful feature but is lacking on this app so you are forced to do it directly on the device. This is a bit clunky and the device does not display the same up-to-date addresses.

Update broke so many things. Can't find locations when inputting an address. I don't want a notification when it's not connected just when it is connected. They removed the separate functions of notifications. The gps itself keeps saying Bluetooth disabled then reconnects. This is beginning to be unusable please fix. I didn't spend hundreds of dollars for stuff to be broken all the time.

As far as I can tell the only point in having this app is so that it can constantly fail to connect when it does connect turn your volume all the way up on your phone. I used to keep it just to send addresses which didn't always work but now it's either don't send an address or send an address that makes the GPS have a stroke. The GPS isn't much better so I'm not sure what I really expected. I usually have to wait at least an hour whenever I turn it on for it to figure out that it's a GPS.
