Ratings and reviews

I'm very happy with this app. No distracting notifications or flipping map around, gets me where I need to go in a direct way without going on a bunch of tiny streets. I used mapquest to go across the country with zero issues as well as local. It doesn't not as many bells and whistles as competitors but I need a map, not ads, not dangerous distractions. Solid, highly recommend.

This app used to be great! I could ask for "ice cream" or click on the "+coffee" button and get SO MANY results. It worked like a charm & never led me astray...until this weekend. Not only are the notifications wildly varying as to how far an exit is, it thought the best route to an arcade was down a residential street that DEADENDED instead of straight across the highway, hang a left. This wasn't the first time it gave dubious directions, but it was the stupidest. It couldn't even find Walmart!

Needs some work. Telling me to remain on the highway when that's literally my only option (unless I want to take off through some corn fields) repeatedly gets annoying. And for some reason it wants me to go several miles out of my way to get to a certain destination. It's very strange. I do love the cute car icon choices and the quest complete message but I'd prefer accuracy in my navigation over adorable UI.
