Search feature is useless. If you are looking for an address or store you would think it would display the location closest to you. Instead you get results thousands of miles from you. Also often quits mid navigation. Not really what you would expect from a navigation app.

Only tried to take me off course once in 700+miles. Typically good for step by step. It is always important to know the general route before setting out.

I've used here drive+, waze, and a few of the gmaps ones. This one is the best. Spoken navigation and also list view, which I like. So far works great! Reroutes well also!

This is by far the most accurate navigation app in terms of avoiding traffic. However, there are a number of issues. Once a route is selected, it stays the same and no optimization is done in real time. I found that redoing the navigation manually every 5 minutes makes the routing much more accurate - something that should be done automatically like Here and Waze. The idle function of the app doesn't work properly because after finishing navigation, it continues to stay on and uses location services even when sent to background. The drop down menu needs to be redesigned because it gets lost when pulled all the way down. Also it does not integrate with offline Here maps!

One of the best nav apps on the market, but when I exit the app and go back to it while its running in the background, it shuts the app and the navigation is erased, that needs to be fixed, plus if you pull the direction menu down too far, you can't ever get it again unless you exit the app and start over, please update, thanks!

Works great in downtown Boston. More reliable than waze on the Windows platform.
