User reviews

Unfortunately unuseable

The app is simply not good enough, it just crashes which is a shame because the limited functionality I have been able to explore on it seemed very promising, but if you’re going to charge £ for a subscription service, IMO it has to work. But to make a bespoke app for emergency services and it repeatedly crash is unforgiveable as it could actually cost someone their life.

Response from developer

Unfortunately a number of apps have had issues with recent iOS updates, especially when accessing via CarPlay. We haven't had any automated crash reports for a while, and believe these issues have been resolved. Please get in touch if not with some details and we'll look into it urgently. In any case we'd like to extend your subscription for free so you can explore its promise more thoroughly - support@bluelightmaps.com

Worked for a short while, then stopped

I had the app downloaded and paid for the premium subscription to use at work, it was brilliant for a short while but the app has now stopped working 80% of the time, it also seems to hate specific vehicles (Toyota/Ford) and just freezes completely. I have uninstalled and re downloaded the app multiple times and this has not repaired the issues. I have now had to cancel my subscription and delete the app.

Hi James, Unfortunately a number of apps have had issues with CarPlay with recent iOS updates, which we believe have now been resolved. If you get in touch we'd be happy to extend your subscription for free to remind you how brilliant it can be - support@bluelightmaps.com

Real potential

This could be a very good app. The location/direction information given at the top of the screen is really handy while moving and having to give commentary on where you are. It is however really clunky. Sometimes if travelling over 70mph it can’t keep up with where you are and jumps ahead on the route. It will also sometimes throw your screen to miles away from your location renovating all knowledge of where you are. If these could be improved on, I would certainly subscribe again.

Response from developer

Glad it helped! Would love to improve your experience further, but would need a few more details as we haven't heard of others having any similar location issues (e.g. if you're using CarPlay, as then we take location information from the car's GPS - if it has one, etc). Please get in touch support@bluelightmaps.com

Great idea but doesn’t work yet

It keeps freezing, not showing my position. Then doesn’t link to Apple car play (unable to switch to car play). Shame I needed something like this for pursuits

Response from developer

Hi, this is probably due to phone locking while on CarPlay. Try iPhone Settings --> General --> CarPlay --> [Select the car] --> 'Allow CarPlay while locked' We've also released an update that should help. Get in touch if you still have any issues, happy to extend a trial support@bluelightmaps.com

Maps fail to download

Purchased, but useless, as maps fail to down load. Will be seeking flu refund.

Response from developer

Hi Nige, Try deleting the map and downloading again - if you still have issues please contact via the in-app support button or support@bluelightmaps.com
