Ratings and reviews

The worst thing is getting to your saved places, I should be able to click on destination where you type, and have a drop down menu that opens saved places, instead I have to navigate the main menu. Then if you want to save a place you can't figure out how, because there's no simple button for it like there should be. I recommend transit app over this

I love this app. The speed traps are pretty accurate and crash notification is too. I would like some features easier to use like the parking spot finder. (unless I'm not seeing the right way) The speed feature is cool too. I cant wait for it to get more accurate. for example, showing exact lane your in and what lane to be in, showing more stores on the map, maybe saying "turn now" when you are right on the turn instead of "in 1/4 mile turn".

Functions well enough, but there's no way to sign out of your Google account like there is on regular Maps. There's an option to temporarily switch to the browser incognito mode, but it will quietly switch itself back out as soon as you change any other setting (showing the traffic map, for example). It's very low memory and featureful, but this is not privacy friendly.
