Recalculating…

I’ve used this app to navigate within town and to get between towns, and it’s pretty good at getting me there on roads of 55mph or less.

However…

I wish there was a way to mute or disable the audio directions in the app, because as it is it tells me that it is “Recalculating…” often, even though I am not deviating from the calculated route. And by “often” I mean anywhere from once every two or three minutes to once every 10 to 15 seconds. This effectively means I can’t listen to anything during the trip because it is constantly being interrupted by the app telling me it is “Recalculating…”

App does not even open

I used to love this app, even though it kept rerouting. It still gave me directions to get to places on my scooter. It was great. But for a long time now, I haven’t been able to even open it. I hope they get it fixed/updated. 😊

Many better options

I have an e-scooter. I tried this app and had only bad experiences when navigating. The one good thing it does is give me an ETA based on max speed of my e-scooter. It’s given me bad routes, not updating location in real-time (minutes delayed), and other issues. I had to stop and use bike mode on Apple & Google - FWIW I’ve found Google has the best routes and mapping of scooter/bike only trails

Constantly rerouting

Constantly rerouting, doesn’t stick to original route either. Map orientation doesn’t follow the direction you are going either.
I originally chose a safe route, this app put me in a dangerous one instead. Being on two wheels…. Dangerous to be checking your route once you get going.

When I say rerouting…. Every second for my 130 mile journey.

Great, could be greater.

Please make 3D, Thank you.
😊👊

Unusable

The app does not update the map’s orientation or position as you ride your route. The buttons that would seem to control this functionality don’t work. The spoken instructions do still work as you ride along, but those are not that helpful without the map. I tried to submit a bug report but that doesn’t work either. I’d love for this app to work but at this point it’s unusable, unfortunately.

Nice idea, poor execution

App constantly shuts down while in use. On my last ride, I gave up and switched to Apple Maps.

Terrible directions in SF

Trying to direct an e scooter rider to go straight down one of the busiest main roads in SF that has no bike lane. Dangerous and totally useless.

Great concept but fatal flaw

Love the routes that it gives but turn-by-turn directions are annoying because it keeps recalculating every 10-30 seconds. So unless I want to hear “recalculating” 3,000 times during my ride, I have to just keep pulling over to look at the route on my phone.

I loved this app till yesterday

Great app to use for you scooters mopeds that can only go up to 35-45 mph. Until yesterday. Both my iOS and android phones 📱 stopped working. What’s happening?

Have uninstalled and installed again not working. Just says error after you search for a destination.
