I have used several different mapping apps. And while this one boasts of superior GPS navigation, I must defer. While living in rural Maine, one finds that apps like this get very confused when it comes to weatherized roads.

So if you happen to be on a road trip you may want to make sure its sending you down the right path. More

A really good idea, but sometimes it works great and at other times, the locations are very far off. The chat function is hit or miss, as well. Overall, it's not reliable enough to count on.

This app for the iPhone is one that is of absolute importance to your safety and travelling expectations on the road or even at home. This app has been regarded highly for years within it's trusted performance and reliability.
