Is this still working 2025?

I’ve tried to use it on road trips and have not managed to have it work on iPhone or IPad

ADS

Too many, long ads in between each marker selected. By the time the marker info came up, we were already past the marker.

Good but could use more

A little disappointed in the lack of markers. There are many places I know of near me that aren’t marked. Maybe have a way that users can submit places for review
