Feels abandoned
App hasn't been updated in months, has half Carplay support (works in full screen only, no dashboard support)
Shame, as overall, this is a very good satnav.

GPS issues
working good but its struggles to detect which road I am in if there are multiple roas side by sode And causing the map to rotate and going through wrong road then back to right one again. I tried several phone all seem to have same problem. This app seems to mess with the phone GPS setting somehow. Using this on Uk Road.
But here are some good feature that helps.
* gives speed and camera alerts even when not navigating.
* works well in offline and screen stays on when not in navigation mode.

Can’t download
I tried about 6 times to download this. Most I got was near the end then it stops. Gave up trying
2021-07-23
Does,nt download.
Don’t waste your time with this app as when trying to download the maps it keeps saying “retry” when you have connection.
My internet is perfect so I’m deleting this app and sticking to WAZE !
2021-05-21
Doesn’t download U.K. maps
I tried for the last 3 days to download the U.K. maps. It starts to download it gets to about 75% then it stops downloading and saying can not download please connect to the internet when I am already connected.
Once this bug is fixed maybe I can try it. I never had any problem downloading at maps or updated from TomTom or Waze 😢😢😢😢
I received a response back from the developer isn’t it amazing all developers say the same excuse and lies “ we are working on it and we will updated on the next release “ this never happens and my starts should be 0 but sadly it won’t let me put 0

Can’t download a map
Tried many times, can’t even download a map. Right at the end of download it fails, always.
2020-11-12
Download useless
I have good download speed yet each time l try to download a map it takes it to the end of the download bar and then stops and comes up failed retry. Any suggestions
2020-10-02
Can’t download a map
It looks like a good app but I’m unable to use it as I cannot download the relevant map (Spain)
I have wasted a whole afternoon trying to download it at different times. I have tried both WiFi and data but to no avail. The error message says (map download has stopped, please check your internet connection)
Regards,
Ed

Mr Happy
I have downloaded this app, it took 48 hours and the map still not even half done. It rubbish.
2020-04-02
Struggling to get UK map
This looked to be just what I needed as I don’t keep a lot of data on my personal phone. Have tried downloading it several times but only get as far as the UK map, then the download stops at about 25%, even though the screen still shows downloading. Going to have to give it up as it’s stressing my WiFi.
2020-02-26
Ever the optimist
Downloaded, set up great. Tested it seemed fine. Went to use properly for the first time today and it doesn’t recognise postcodes, tried many, keep getting the “oops don’t recognise that”
Paid for it in advance to remove the ads, silly me.
Now deleted and another app installed recognising every postcode I enter without any network connection.
2020-01-05
Finding locations
Putting postcodes in and not recognising them , not rating any good at all, will stick with Waze and Google , this app wont even let me rate without putting at least 1 star which i do not even want to give it
2019-12-10
Limited search
- it does not search postcode
-showing speed limit in kilometres by default despite the fact that if was downloaded from the UK app store
- horrible default voice
2019-11-22
Nice interface, no speed limits
A nice app but, it does not show all addresses or postcodes.
Also I find I will use other navigation apps when I drive on unfamiliar roads because it does not help you with speed limits.
When it peeps, I don’t know what for? Speed cameras or exceeded speed limit?
2019-04-14
Why can’t I search a postcode?
I really like this app but it has stopped letting me search for a postcode? Any ideas why this might be?
It’s great because it gives realistic times for arrival and sensible routes but this is making me frustrated that it is taking a long time to search for my destination.
2019-02-26
It’s actually really good
Really good navigator. Map is clear, directions are clear and shows more information than google maps (google maps doesn’t tell speed limits or what speed your travelling at) My ONLY issue is that it isn’t compatible with apple CarPlay. If it could be accepted on CarPlay then I would happily use this instead of google and apple maps.

Very good.

Works great
2019-02-02
Very useful app
I use this app for all my journeys and finding to be very good.
2019-01-18
Very nice app
Works well in the far east!
2019-01-15
Don’t recommend
A 20 minute long journey took an hour, took me through the other side of the city and back into the middle of it, without taking and scratching my car on country lanes. Also tried taking me through one way lanes the wrong way. While it is free it needs serious improvements.
2018-12-30
No use to me
I’m looking for an alternative to the laggy Tom Tom app. Thought I’d try this but with no speed limits displayed and postcode search not working(oops I can’t find that constantly) it’s of no use at all
2018-12-02
Maps
I don’t find your maps very good. I also use “mavmii” maps which I find a lot easier and quicker
2018-11-20
Best sat nav going!!
This sat nav is simply brilliant!! Have used in Australia and around Europe without any issues
Thanks for this app
Highly recommended
2018-11-20
Ceekays
Dont bother with all other sat navs this one is what you want ive had dozens and deleted them all we’re rubbish im keeping this one its better than google and apple maps together
2018-11-19
Nothing
I couldn't drive by following the wrong directions which this app was giving me. 19 years driver first time I found myself struggling to drive on the roads which I'm passing every week. There was no traffic on the road and it sent me from shortcut where was traffic light and I lost 2 mins for no reason! It looked they wanted me to be late sometimes and there were signs appeared on the screen that were sending me out of my direction and I could see the reload for a new direction many times and I was very upset! Sorry but no.
2018-11-19
Great little app
Used on holiday where we had no mobile data. Not as slick or accurate as Google but it got us where we were going and it's free!
2018-10-28
Good stuff

Holiday detours
Hi download the app & decided to use it while we are on holiday up near Berwick on tweed
We traveled up from Cirencester to Peterborough & all was well but when we then went onto Ripon it just when a bit Lala
The best route was the A1 & A1M how strange that the app was trying to take us on every back B road there
The next day it did the same as we traveled up to Haggerston Castle also it was telling us that we were speeding (50)mph on A1M which is national speed limit (70)
Other faults tried to take us the wrong way down a duel carriage way by the Angel of the north then the wrong way around a roundabout
I think your software needs a bit of fixing but on the whole not bad HAVE SEEN WORSE
Long way to go to beat TOMTOM

Postcode search doesn’t work
As per title - post code search merely returns locations with similar letters and even being connected to internet doesn’t help! Shame as everything else seemed promising
Update: search was used in London and occasionally only first part of the postcode would work
2018-07-27
great app
better than i expected,better than google navigation.straight precise not to many jargon popping up while driving.very accurate distances and exit times.
well done.
2018-06-16
Disappointing
Unfortunately I can only give one star because the app looks good, but it always asks to be allowed access to my contacts, and I don’t understand why it needs that, and sadly so far the app has not been able to find one single post code I’ve put in. So, it hasn’t got me anywhere.
2018-06-05
Mr
Cant find post code its wast of time and money
2018-04-27
Jd
Taking hours to download maps
2018-01-28
Annoying
Very annoying and very difficult to use and waste of time, always ask to access contacts when you put postcode shows you other irrelevant places never seen worst application like this before.
2018-01-22
Not very good
Used this app twice. It took me on some strange routes to and from work. On my way home, I ignored this app and took my usual route and arrived home about seven minutes quicker than the app predicted.
2017-11-11
Poor
The first 4 postcodes I put in couldn’t be found. And a Sat Nav is for................?
2017-09-28
Nice to use but needs a few things
Very nice looking app and very easy to use. Personally I could do with the ability to add more that one stop in a route as I’m a delivery driver so can be stopping at 20-30 different places. Also the ability to put in vehicle dimensions so I can avoid low bridges and width restrictions would be great. And I know it’s asking a lot but compatibility with CarPlay would be great and get this one more points over Waze
2017-06-20
Postcode search
Sent the support team several Emails about being unable to search for places using postcodes and still no fix. Waste of money
2017-06-01
Brilliant
Does the job, when my iPhone is on the dash mount , this is comparable to a TomTom or Garmin,,, wonderful app ,, :)
2017-05-27
Rubbish
This is a terrible app I am trying to add my home address and it won't let me and when I try and put in any address it won't work either 🙄

Decent app
A really nice interface easy to use not bad at all.
2017-04-04
Rubbish waste of money
I download this app and paid £9.99 for safety camera guess what not working even I see camera but this app still can't detect it so don't waste your money like I did
2017-04-02
Karta
Shocking! Constantly telling me to turn around, change route, and late for every turning.
2017-02-25

Need much improvement.
No post code data
