Ratings and reviews

Like the app. I think it would be better if saved addresses populated at the top of the saved-list instead of the bottom and then the user needing to manually drag each to the top. It seems that the last addresses added would tend to be the ones that would be used next. Perhaps another option would be able to change sort, for instance, by date (last in 1st out). Could not f8nd this capability.

This app is good for navigation, of course. The reporting of hazards, police presence, and other types of reports make for some great usability. But - It feels like the devs have almost abandoned this app. There's plenty of bugs, and the same issues as when I stopped using the app 3 years ago. For example, the "beep wazer" being grayed out bug has been around for quite a while with no fix. I can't link my socials it seems, and there is a small lag issue.

For navigation options, this is by far more superior than Google maps. The speeding camera's being mostly all up to date is a plus for out of town driver's who are not locals. However, a bug persist in the software code when running at the same time with music. I tried Spotify and SoundCloud app. The voice notifications stop after a few mentions of directions or alerts..this is crucial to work as I would prefer to keep my eyes on the road instead of having to look at my phone.
