Absolutely brilliant app
Clunky and unreliable map zooming and swiping
And tried to register new account
Too many unnecessary things in the interface
The application interface is terribly designed
Tried to plot a route but couldn't get it to work
Rejects forgotten password reset
Don't understand all this social media integration rubbish
No recourse to the help screens at all yet
Not keen on buying the same map twice
Unfriendly interface and expensive maps
