I just purchased this app and I am demanding a refund. Does Not Work! It can not find any destinations! I live in NY. DO NOT WAIST YOUR MONEY OR TIME! You have been warned! ### 1/5 — Horrible App *2022-01-29* I paid and download this app to use in my 2016 Chevy Trax. This app is horrible. I typed in Walt Disney World from my current location and it told me cannot find. I asked for Thai restaurants near me, it cannot find. The only reason I use this is so I could use the navigation system directly on my car. I still have to hook up through USB for it to work. This is the biggest waste of space on my phone and biggest waste of a useless app. If I could give zero stars I would, but the smallest it would let me select is one. ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2022-01-16, version 2.5.13* Great app when it worked upgraded to iPhone 13 iOS 15.2.1. Now it doesn’t allow me to login and use it ### 1/5 — Garbage *2021-07-17, version 2.5.13* Yeah it works like an old tomtom from 2001. The only reason I bought it is so I could have navigation on my Chevys car radio. Should have just mounted my phone on my dash like my old car. ### 1/5 — Poor product *2021-04-29, version 2.5.13* Once purchased and logged in. 30 day trial was already expired even before I could start the app for the first time on my phone. Forced me to purchase or log out. Don’t waist your time with this app. Use WAZE. ### 1/5 — No Confirmation Email to get access *2021-03-07* I would love to use this app for my new car but I can’t get a conformation email to access my account. I’ve looked in both Spam and Inbox and have not received a single confirmation email to get access. It’s now been two days. Very disappointed. ### 1/5 — Wow worst app ever *2021-02-27, version 2.5.13* I can’t even get a confirmation email sent to me to start using the app. I am forced to use this app for my Chevy trax. You should just just delete everything and start from scratch. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2020-10-18, version 2.5.13* The app is a disaster. Instead of paying $50 for this just buy yourself a $50 refurbished Garmin 50 GPS from Amazon. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money *2020-09-23, version 2.5.13* Don’t make the same mistake I did. ### 3/5 — Decent enough, but not user friendly. *2020-06-20* The App shows everything you need if you know exactly where you’re going. If you want to stick to main roads/use backroads, or if you misspell a location, good luck finding it. There is no user assistance, no recommendations, and the map shows a finnicky level of detail that just doesn’t work if you want to see a building or town without being right on it. Major improvements could be made, but it’s not a death sentence if you have to use it. ### 1/5 — Awful App *2020-06-19* I originally got this because it was the only one that would work on my car. It was only 99 cents so i decided why not. I don’t recommend this app at all, it doesn’t work at all. I prefer apple maps or even google maps over this. Don’t waste your money on this app. I’m extremely disappointed. ### 1/5 — Bad app *2020-06-16, version 2.5.13* This app is not good ### 1/5 — Best route not shown *2020-05-26* I downloaded this as it is compatible with my car; however, this app is completely useless as it only shows routes that take significantly longer than routes Apple Maps or google maps find. For my 11 hour trip, the only route that shows up is 13 hours. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2020-05-18, version 2.5.13* It freezes on your car and it never gets the location right! Wrong turns and everything!! Do not waste your 99 cents 😡 (last update was one year ago) ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2020-02-24* It’s the only app that was compatible with my car, so I thought I’d give it a try. I can’t get past the first screen where you select the countries/states to download. It keeps saying time ran out. I’d pass on the app and just use google maps. ### 1/5 — Need help *2020-02-10, version 2.5.13* Please contact me ### 3/5 — Color? *2020-01-11, version 2.5.13* I use this for my 2016 Spark ev. The app works well but it’s annoying that the display on MyLink is not in color... ### 1/5 — Garbage *2019-11-16, version 2.5.13* This is probably the worst app I've ever purchased. It doesn't know most addresses and gets my location wrong all the time. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-07-09, version 2.5.13* Don’t buy it ### 1/5 — Useless *2025-07-07, version 2.5.13* I can’t even creat an account this app must be dead! ### 1/5 — Not so good *2025-07-03, version 2.5.13* Well I would write a review if it would let me log in, won’t let me create a password or use Facebook to log in, save your money and refund mine, what a waste. ### 1/5 — Cannot register *2025-06-27* I tried this app a few years ago and bought a 2 year subscription, it was so bad that I quit using it. I was hoping that it had been improved by now so decided to gamble 99 cents. Now it will not even connect with the server to register. My opinion: total garbage! ### 1/5 — Esta madre no sirve *2025-05-20, version 2.5.13* Esta madre no sirve para nada nolo selos recomiendo es una vasura P.t.s ### 1/5 — horrible app *2024-12-08, version 2.5.13* it takes so mich just to type in a location i wasted money on this jus for it to keep kicking me out the app when i try nd use the only reason y i have is because of the car i have which is a 2016 chevy trax it takes forever just to open the app nd it doesn’t work for real. ### 1/5 — This app is straight trash *2024-09-23, version 2.5.13* This app is terrible, it can't find anything, it's not able to find any address/location , it's useless , totally trashy ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time on this AP *2023-08-09* Worst AP I have ever tried to use. Cannot find Mount Pleasant, MI for Gods sake! Even if it recognizes the town 3 out of 4 addresses & POI it cannot find. I’m frustrated this is the only AP my old (2014) Chevy has. Absolutely ridiculous! Just updated at the dealership so no not using an old version. As titled - don’t waste your time downloading this AP - If I could rate a negative number I would. ### 1/5 — Worst Navigation App *2023-07-07, version 2.5.13* Do not get this app does not work well. ### 1/5 — Does not work *2023-06-19* Tried to login using Fb - no luck. Tried to create account- cannot connect to server. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Much better than most *2019-11-28, version 2.5.13* I’ve used and owned all sorts of GPS units for cars, including built-ins for Honda, Subaru, BMW, and integrated systems CarPlay and Android Auto. This is better than all of them. There is real thoughtfulness in design, from the vast array of preferences you can set, to the way it indicates turn lanes and your next two moves. Then there is the ability to show detailed descriptions on maps of everything around you, which is unusual. Last but not least, there are the 3D renderings (yes!) of upcoming exits that no other system I have seen comes close to. It’s very thoughtfully designed. Is it as “pretty” as some other systems? No. But it’s pretty enough, and provides more detail with more attention to useful user experience than just about every other system out there, at a price that is difficult to beat. Highly recommended. ### 5/5 — Love it *2018-10-16, version 2.5.9* I missed having a nav system and this fills the role nicely ### 5/5 — BRINGGO Comment: one of theGreatest Navigation App *2018-04-02* I wish/want more visual examples of how App can/should be used in actual,(pictorial) everyday applications, Please ### 5/5 — BringGo *2016-10-12, version 2.5.3* I like this application it takes a lot of practice to get used to using it. The only thing that bothers me is having to sign in every time I want to use it other than that it works perfectly after you get over the learning curve. The people that are not liking it are too young and impatient. It just takes time to learn how to use it. ### 5/5 — Works good *2016-10-09, version 2.5.3* Like it ### 5/5 — Working great so far *2015-10-01, version 2.0.1* I'm on my 30 trial of the BringGo app. So far, I'm impressed. My background with GPS and navigation apps is that I've owned Garmin GPS units for about 20 years, and I've owned a number of iOS gps apps, such as Navigon and Garmin. If you are at all familiar with GPS (and we're not talking Waze or Google Maps), then you will feel right at home with BringGo. How it works: the app is a container for map sets, after you install the app you need to download one or more state or province maps. You have the maps on your device, so there is no need for network connectivity once the maps are in place. I don't know how the Traffic feature functions as I'm not testing that. 99 cents allows you to try the app for 30 days. After that, it's $60, which is less than I've paid for other GPS apps. There really are quite a few nice features here. It integrates nicely with my Chevy Spark EV, displaying on the dash unit, and even understanding that it is an electric vehicle: it is able to show my range on the map, for example. Lots of features here, lots of options and configurables, reasonably up to date maps, well priced, integrates with my in dash unit. ### 5/5 — Great value and function *2015-09-18, version 2.0.1* The negative reviews are just plain ill informed. This is an app meant to be played through your car entertainment console, not read on a phone. The maps are downloaded to your phone which makes the loading to your car easy and not dependent on a satellite connection. The navigation is quite intuitive and and thorough for anyone who's ever used a GPS clip on device. The sound and graphics are great, maps were very complete even in my rural area and integration with my car was simple as can be. When you think of what it costs to have a navigation system as an option in a car, this is a really great deal. ### 5/5 — Very Happy *2015-08-28, version 2.0.1* Never lets me down. Much better than my TomTom was. No waiting for a GPS signal. Instant help when you need it. ### 5/5 — BringGO - Chevy Sonic 14 LTZ *2015-02-18, version 1.1.10* The application is coded and organized really well - there is much potential for it however it requires GMs involvement in improving the MyLink gateway so that BringGo and other apps can show what they have! Likes: Offline maps The maps are awesome and cute Find locations via Google within car mirror :) Dislikes: Should be $5 per month The exits should be clear i.e. get off at exit 4 1 mi etc etc The traffic aspect and routes for some locations aren't the best routes, -with my version and mylink if i minimize apple window and jump to another app the mylink mirror says connection lost, this may not occur on your version There is much potential, and for those who compare it to GMaps, this stores maps for offline use, GMaps consumes tons of data and requires at least 3G connection, once you enter certain places you may drop to 2G/1x. ### 5/5 — THE best thing out there!! *2013-12-02, version 1.1.0* This app is awesome. I'm talking heaven sent here. BringGo is able to compile all the info I need to get from point A to B to stop for gas in the middle, and get around traffic. As an Albertan I can tell you how important proper traffic and weather updates are during the winter, and this delivers! It connects just perfectly to my Chevy, and shows me all the landmarks, and buildings in my path (great for me since I'm horrible with directions.) I also love the speech to text voice recognition, it works fantastically and is perfect because when I'm in a rush I don't need to stop and program before I start driving. I'm hoping to get more into road trips in the next little while and I can't wait to take BringGo with me! I downloaded the maps of all Canada, and as soon as I start roadtrippin' I'll download USA as well. It has full on information for you about; traffic speeds, local traffic info, high flow spots, and the best (and safest) way to get to your destination. THis app really is the best thats out there right now. For something you can use without internet, on the go, and that's reliable. I think it's worth the price tag! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
