Inaccurate Directions Could Put Learners at Risk
Driving apps should provide accurate, up-to-date guidance, especially when they are marketed as tools for test preparation. Incorrect directions can create confusion, encourage unsafe decisions, and undermine a learner’s confidence behind the wheel. Until the accuracy of the route information is improved and properly verified, I would not recommend relying on this app for driving test preparation. Safety and accuracy must come first.

Thank you for your feedback. We take safety and accuracy very seriously and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. The app relies on road and navigation data provided by Mapbox, which is widely used across many navigation applications. While we strive to provide the best possible experience, road layouts, restrictions, and traffic regulations can occasionally change or may not always be reflected immediately within the underlying map data. If you could provide the specific location where this occurred, we would be happy to investigate further and report any mapping inaccuracies to the relevant provider. We also regularly review user feedback to help identify and correct issues wherever possible. Our aim is to help learners gain confidence and familiarity with local roads, and we are continuously working to improve the app experience. Thank you again for taking the time to share your concerns.
Not Real Routes
Response from developer
Hello, The purpose of this app is to help you become familiar with the roads and driving conditions around your chosen test centre, allowing you to build confidence before your practical driving test. The routes provided within the app are not official DVSA test routes. Official driving test routes are not publicly available, and no app has access to the exact routes used during examinations. Instead, our team has carefully designed and selected practice routes based on local road networks, common test areas, and driving scenarios that learners are likely to encounter during their test. By practising these routes, you can gain valuable experience, improve your road awareness, and increase your confidence behind the wheel. While no route can guarantee the exact path taken during your test, many learners find that practising in the local area significantly improves their chances of success and helps them feel more prepared on the day of their exam.
Dangerous and Misleading Driving App
Learner drivers rely on accurate guidance to build safe driving habits and confidence on the road. If the app cannot provide correct instructions in such a basic situation, it raises serious concerns about the reliability of the rest of its content. I would strongly advise learners and instructors to use caution and verify any information independently before trusting this app. Road safety should never be compromised by inaccurate guidance.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We're really sorry to hear about your experience. Incorrect turn instructions or routing onto a motorway when it shouldn’t happen is not the experience we want our users to have. Our navigation relies on map data that is constantly improving, but occasionally road markings, lane restrictions, or recent changes may not yet be reflected correctly. If you’re able to share the location or route where this happened, we would really appreciate it. It would help us investigate the issue and improve the navigation for everyone. As a small and growing app, reviews have a very big impact on us. If the issue was a one-off or if we’re able to resolve it, we would be extremely grateful if you would consider updating or removing the 1-star rating. Your support truly helps us continue improving the app. Thank you again for your feedback and for helping us make the app better.
