Ratings and reviews

This app is not user-friendly for foreigners. Only a handful of elements are translated, with the majority remaining in Korean. The desktop/web version crashes whenever you attempt to translate it. Additionally, the registration process is nearly impossible. The blue dot on a blue track with a blue arrow is impossible to read when navigating. Overall, this app is a hassle to use, and I can't imagine anyone outside of Korea finding it practical.

Absolute life saver while "walking" the streets of south Korea, didnt really use it for transportation options. Only minor issue (that may just be operator error) is when you look things up it's not in English, so no way of reading the description. Extremely accurate.

This app is good overall for Navigation, but it needs to be updated with correct speed camera placements. It often gives warning for speed camera when no are there or they have bern moved. Also the routing could better. Often takes you on longer routes not the most direct. Please put an option to turn off the voice warnings.
