Ratings and reviews

When I downloaded this and tried it the first time in my house, it worked fine. But the two times I tried it when I was out on the road, the Navigate in App was not even showing in Maps Go even though the Google Play Store was showing that it was installed on my smartphone! So Maps Go, to me, is worthless if I can't hear the audio giving me directions because I don't like having to continually look down at my smartphone when I am driving.

Wish this would stop coming pre-installed on phones. WORST. APP. IN EXISTENCE. I have been using this app for a little over a year and I can easily say it needs a COMPLETE overhaul. My husband has the IOS version of this while I use the android version and we have both agreed, this app has lost its shine. Whenever we go to hit "get directions" from any browser it will launch the play store and never allow the app to start its navigation. It actually hasn't worked properly in almost 3 years.

I'm currently on a cross country drive. Your app keeps prompting me for a "faster route". After telling it "No" once, it has proceeded to continue to update. Used to, when you ignored the prompt - it would go away. Now if you ignore it, it automatically assumes I want to take the new route. Its incredibly dangerous for me to keep reaching down just to try and continue on the route I chose. Im not going to kill myself because you want me to take the "faster route". Will be finding a new app.
