Mislabeling

Mislabels Lake Toronto and the Gulf of Mexico

Not bad, could be better.

The navigation line that’s blue when using the app is too narrow to the point it’s hard to differentiate it from the roads without the route line.

Want to use Here we go

So want an alternative to google maps. Thought this was it. However it doesn’t open on CarPlay. I can use it if I remember to open the app before starting CarPlay. It’s been like this for a long time. (I remember not using app three years ago for this reason) Please fix it. All other apps open fine on CarPlay.

Tried it instead of Google Maps

HERE WeGo is okay when compared to google or apple maps, or waze, but it doesn’t update road closures, it doesn’t identify police locations, it can’t tell if a destination has a roadside access point, and they capitulated to illegally changing gulf of mexico and lake ontario’s name to “America.” Will probably delete it now that they did that.

Latest update removed support for older devices

I don’t know why they decided to stop supporting older devices, but the maps still work as long as you don’t uninstall.

Fantastic app for navigation

A non-troublesome way to navigate! Truly utilitarian. Just open the app, type in your destination and be on your way. There's no ridiculous advertising, or misguiding you to click on things you didn't want to. There’s no AI ruining the experience! It’s simply good navigation in a fluid way with no hang-ups! It’s also highly customizable.

If I could suggest any improvements, it would be to make the map rendering smoother. It seems to be rendering at 5 fps or something. I'm not sure if this is some default low-power mode setting, but I haven’t found it yet.
I would also like smoother voices but tbh neither of these are big deals.
It also greatly needs an apple watch app to go with it.

Seriously try this app. I used it back when I had Nokias and windows phone, I'm happy to have found my way back to it again.

Incorrect geography

Lake America- does not exist. Gulf of America-does not exist. There were quite a few things that this app just seems to be making up. Delete.

Súper

Súper bueno para las donas rurales donde no hay mucha señal porque puedes usarlo sin señal y así poder llegar a tu destino

Start up problems

App very good when compared to others, however often fails to load on iPhone and CarPlay, which is frustrating. Would also like to see route up when not in navigation, primary fall back setting.

Hours

This app looks pretty good but I was wondering if there is a way to change a business’s hours to a 12 hour format?

Best Alternative to Google and Apple maps

Edit - no need to keep this app since they also changed the name from Lake Ontario to Lake America. Deleted ...

Have used the iOS app for the last five days. Good experience overall. One observation - I have my routing settings to give me the fastest route, but the route list gives me a longer route at the top of the list

Review

I enjoy using this gps app, I do think things can be improved but it is a unique and cool app.

CarPlay

Good app. But CarPlay needs serious update. Sluggish and slow on CarPlay.

Here We Go

I appreciate ability to download maps. however, when traveling and using carplay, the arrow representing the vehicle does not move in a fluid motion, it's choppy. Apple Maps doesn't have this issue. Please address the issue OR if it's a setting I'm missing, I'll gladly bump up my rating.

Sadly…

… the developers are influenced by a tyrant and convicted felon. They too renamed Lake Ontario and Gulf of America. Shame on them. I had hope but have deleted this app.

Deleted - terrible app

It’s Lake Ontario you spineless losers. Deleted. Sticking with mapquest

Disappointing

I wanted this app to be better than google or apple apps, but it keeps giving me the wrong directions.

Do not bow to pressure

I liked the app until I saw they changed Lake Ontario to “Lake America.” I quickly deleted it from my phone.

Good map but makes missing turns

Has two show stopper disadvantages: no perspective view + really weird placement of route over the intersections (really the line is drawn after the place where the actual turn is). That made me miss my turns feed times. Combined these two turned into a show stopper. Also, no lane assist… Too bad.

Updates?

How long does it take for the map to be updated??
