I used the app in Spain. Comped with other navigation apps, gaode's advantage is: it provided oral guidance which lane I should use or not use, before approaching the crossings. Google and Waze does bad at this point. The disadvantage is it doesn't support offline map and the communication speed with the server is slow. Hope the team could improve this soon.

It contains a very detailed database about all locations in China, and the interface is really smart, but I can't use it before I learn to write in Chinese. So it's useless for tourists like me. If you at least invest in a few European translations, this app could take over all other navigation apps.

Works best for me in mainland China where Google fails, use Pleco to read screenshots if you can't read Chinese. Foreigners will need to get a SIM card from a flagship store of a service provider to get a local phone number, which is required by almost every app you need in China.
