Ratings and reviews

Still downloading the offline map (FR) for around an hour.. despite full battery and my fast Internet (250 Mb/s) it seems to download only at a rate of 2 MB/s (16 Mb/s).. Other apps manage to use more bandwidth.. So I cannot even start using it (offline) as I wish. Moreover, it looks like the download stops after a few minutes in the background, so I must keep it in the foreground until the download is done and cannot do anything else in parallel. Enable background job (e.g. with WorkManager)!

The user interface is quite frankly a disaster. It's so counterintuitive, so difficult to navigate through (this is a navigation app, btw!) even the most basic tasks like route overview, destination, start position - one big catastrophe. On the flip side, it's the only navigation I found to build the exact same route both in offline and online, and it's still free! That's really great, even Gmaps fail on that sometimes. Good job actually. Do smth with this UI disaster, for now 3 stars only.

This app is frustrating to use as a navigation app. As a simple digital map I really like it but trying to navigate through Zurich gave me a freaking headache. the driveway to the highway was literally the best and most direct route, but instead I was send an absolute bonkers detour. o and the occasinal "route not found" is more than disappointing. a simple two city route cannot be found? I paid for all the extra bells and whistles, but who needs those, when nothing works. I hope I get a refund..
