Almost great !!!
Sits on my Tesla M3 dashboard and is super useful on long journeys. It will save you money ££££.
Issues:
*Often when new roadworks appear it often says 70mph instead of 50mph for many weeks.
*On the B6232 (Belthorn) the average speed cameras go from 30mph up to 50mph and then down to 40mph. On Saphe for 4 miles it just says 30 mph!
I want a way of reporting errors on the map by pressing both buttons simultaneously❗️

Too many Problems
I’ve been using this now for about 2 months. When it works, it’s ok. However!
1. There are too many inaccuate/non-exsistant reports. I travel on the M62, M1 and A1 frequently. It still gives warnings of cameras that no longer exsist. I have been inable to find a way to report this.
2. You report a new camera but it is nit added to the database
Luckily, I will no longer be driving soon as I’m retiring. But I pity the drivers who rely on this

Speeds not always correct
Would be good to update the correct speeds on the go and for the app also on Apple Watch
Poor Database
What one needs to know is where the MOBILE camera traps are located, so having purchased drove south down (the notorious for mobile camera vans) A417 dual carriageway in Glos. Not one of the known 4 locations in 15 miles brought any alerts, but I notified each time on the device. If it doesn't update the database swiftly, then the Saphe mini is next to useless and doesn't inspire my confidence in its 'protection' on routes elsewhere in the UK that I am unfamiliar with.

Database is not reliable for UK motorway roadworks
There have been extensive 50mph average speed camera sections on the UK M42 and M40 around Birmingham for many weeks now - these are visible on eg Radarbot but do not show up at all on Saphe. It cannot be relied upon. It is a shame as the Saphe Mini hardware is brilliant but it is let down by the app and database.

App does not work
Please do not buy the device that uses this app I have bought so I have bought the mini and the pro the mini worked for about two weeks along come on over upgrade which I downloaded. It worked for another two weeks so I thought the mini was not working, so I ordered the pro work fine for two weeks then stop working looked on my phone and it said new version coming which was three weeks ago. Still not got the new version complete auto waste of money and time

Please fix it!!!

Good drive assistant app
Generally is a good drive assistant app, but I miss a function indicating is which direction an obstacle or danger is located.
For example if I drive in an westbound direction I’ll normally only be interested in issues in the westbound lane, but I receiv everything for both eastbound and westbound lanes

Was the CarPlay integration of this app every actually tested??
Fundamental flaws make the CarPlay implementation of this app un-useable. The map suffers from intermittent display problem resulting in random large blocks of colour overlaying on the map making unsightly and difficult to read/follow. More importantly when the speed is displayed in MPH it is converted wrongly - way under displaying the speed as related to the speed limit. This is likely ( but not entirely sure ) to therefore not display warnings/alerts when exceeding the limit. Interestingly if you display speed in KPH they are correct.
Just dreadful quality control!

Improvement would be to notify you if/WHEN your speed is exceeding…
Not bad alongside Waze. However on a recent journey it was really clear that a brilliant improvement would be to be able to set the device to notify or alarm only when you are exceeding the speed (m25 for example)… e.g notify if over by 10 mph or more to adjust sensitivity…
This would make the device more useful. As to be honest, without this feature I’m not too sure… (Although it did just notify me of a cam on the m1 I didn’t know about!)
