I have made some purchases for additional functions but after few days it was automatically cancelled without my permission. Although refund has been made but i think you should sort it out. I installed the pro version i hope it won't cancel my purchase again.

Trying to figure out a route to a place approximately 5 nautical miles away. And it told me it would take three days to get there. I really didn't have to use it anymore than that to know that I would soon be deleting it.

the time to cover even a short route depends on the speed, with a very low speed 5 miles can be covered even in three weeks, If you give me more details I can correct a possible mistake
