Ratings and reviews

You had me at Gulf of Mexico! (And Denali). I remember printing your directions. Your app has been mostly good, though it needs polished. Make the UI cleaner, like the printed directions used to look, with emphasis on readability while driving. Let us pay to take the distracting ads off the screen. I drive all day and would happily test your app as you update, if there is a need.

Minus: Directions are accurate but cues are sometimes too slow to make a turn. Twice, the map view has not kept up with the actual location, although the audio cues were correct. Plus: It offers you several routes to choose from. It lets you customize a suggested route by touch and drag. Several voices to choose from and you can change the volume and pitch.

I have used it for years. Specifically over other apps. Not anymore. App updated. Now there is a full page ad before the app opens. And a big ad at the top of the map. AND an big ad at the bottom of the app. My 8" screen now barely shows 2" of map space. I would have paid a ONE TIME fee to keep using it. But NOT a monthly subscription. Your greed just lost you a long time customer. Uninstalling.
