The weather notification is nice, the app has a carpool lane option, and route forecasting. Pretty cool. Most problems described by previous reviewers have been addressed, this nav is worth a try. ### 2/5 — Meh *2024-06-20* I got this in hopes it would show directions on my IONIQ 5 HUD since Apple Maps and Google maps do not. It doesn’t, though. The directions are also sometimes very silly, taking paths that seem rather backwards. The voice during directions is robotic and doesn’t pronounce things correctly. For example, “Hwy” is said by this app as “H-W-Y” instead of “Highway”. Finally I just don’t like how it traps you into a subscription with a 7 day trial that automatically renews if you forget to cancel it. You can’t demo the app at all unless you give them the ability to bill you. All in all I see no benefits at all over Apple Maps. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, we'll definitely look into improving how the street names are pronounced in addition to our billing model. We'd love to have you give us a try again in the future.

Most problems described by previous reviewers have been addressed, this nav is worth a try. ### 5/5 — Using it daily *2023-11-15* Great app, I like the weather integration. ### 1/5 — Be warned *2023-11-15* No thanks, I’ll stick with free Apple Maps, Google Maps, and Waze. You can’t use this app without paying for it after the 7 day trial period which you are only offered as long as you pick the one year option. It’s not expensive, but there are better options free. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. As a brand new navigation app, your feedback helps us do better -- and we've went ahead and enabled a free trial for our monthly plan as well. We'd love to hear more from you on what can be improved, please feel free to reach out at support@gowithjourney.com. ### 5/5 — Meu app favorito para viagens!! *2023-11-14* Esse app me da alternativas de rotas com diversos pontos para paradas e as melhoras opções para minha viagem! ### 2/5 — Search option not found when connected via Carplay *2023-11-14* Im not able to find an option to put location when connected via CarPlay in the car . Also rerouting route taking longer time. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. Our team is investigating this issue, and we'll make sure this is fixed ASAP. We hope you'll give us a try again in the future. 🙏 ### 1/5 — Can’t Avoid *2023-11-14* There is no setting to avoid toll roads and the app wants to send me on a toll road every trip. I don’t use the toll road due to the cost and if the app can’t route me without using the toll road, the app is useless. How does such a critical feature be left out? Not ready for prime time. **Developer response:** Great news! In our latest release v1.41.0, we've added multiple navigation avoidance preferences, including the ability to avoid tolls. Thank you for your feedback, and we hope you'll give us another try in the future. ### 5/5 — Improved my commute! *2023-10-26* This app is so great, I love that it can predict my commute time and let me know when I need to leave ### 5/5 — Great app *2023-08-11* Absolutely love this app! Not only does it guide me through the best routes, but it also keeps me informed about any unforeseen roadblocks or hazards. A must-have for daily commuters! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No voice navigation *2025-06-15* Impossible to get voice directions to work. Not worth paying for. **Developer response:** Hey there, We’re very sorry for this issue with voice directions. We ask you kindly to update our app to the latest version (v2.6.0) as we’ve recently fixed it! If you have any other issues, don’t hesitate to reach out at support@journey.tech. Thank you ### 1/5 — Journey nav CRASHING *2024-08-27* Recent iOS update 17.6 Journey app and website crashing. Can't contact developer to troubleshoot, so I'm trying here. My experience is the directions are good, more features are being added with fine tuning from feedback to very responsive developers. Most problems described by previous reviewers have been addressed, this nav is worth a try. ### 1/5 — Can't trust this *2024-06-10, version 1.59.0* This app should be in beta. A lot bugs which developers are resolving fast. But a beta app for £6.99/month? Woh, unacceptable. I tested this app for a month. The search results are inaccurate, and the navigation took me to a wrong place. I had to use apple maps instead. ### 1/5 — Paid subscription navigation app *2024-05-16* No free version, have to pay to use. No reason to get when Waze and Apple/Google Maps is free. Also crashing consistently. Will be irrelevant in a few years fs. **Developer response:** We're very sorry to hear you didn't have a good experience with our app. We'd love to know more if you can email us at support@gowithjourney.com so we can promptly resolve your crashes. Thank you. ### 1/5 — Absolutely awful *2024-04-17, version 1.53.4* This is the worst navigation app I’ve ever used, constantly crashes and doesn’t navigate when you want it too. Don’t bother with this app ### 1/5 — Not ready for prime time. *2024-04-14* First, routes have to have multiple stops? Makes no sense. Also, the mapping is extremely inaccurate. My car keeps ending up off the route in the display. Finally, I am on the correct route but at a light, I kept getting turn left messages. Leaving after a one day trial. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry you trial was not ideal — we’d love to make things right, could you to email us at support@gowithjourney.com? ### 1/5 — Wrong driving directions, no weather warnings. *2024-02-22* Approaching home Journey sent me 2 miles away to to cruise around other neighborhoods and then direct me home finally. I’ll never received any weather notification even though it’s raining really bad. I can’t believe I’ll paid for a subscription. It’s should be free until the fix lots of problems first. Really bad GPS right now. Hope I can have my money back. **Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your experience, and we're truly sorry to hear about the issues you've encountered with our GPS navigation and weather notifications.

Enfin même si le guidage a la voix est en français les indications de la carte restent en anglais non configurable C est scandaleux Finissez vos développements avant de mettre ça sur le store et de le vendre comme concurrent de Waze ou Google Maps **Developer response:** Nous vous remercions d’avoir pris le temps de partager votre avis. Nous sommes désolés d’apprendre que notre application n’a pas répondu à vos attentes en termes de personnalisation, d’ergonomie sur CarPlay, et de configuration linguistique.

Nous aimerions en savoir plus sur votre expérience et discuter de la manière dont nous pouvons l'améliorer. Veuillez nous contacter à support@gowithjourney.com. Votre retour est crucial pour nous aider à évoluer et proposer un service qui rencontre vraiment les attentes de nos utilisateurs. ### 1/5 — Not worth the money *2023-11-17* I tried this app ready to pay for something that included nav and weather while using CarPlay. Unfortunately I was very disappointed. Most of the time, the car reference point was askew from the road on the map. The level of detail was extremely simple and was a long way from being competitive with Waze, Google Maps, or Apple Maps. Glad I was able to bail during the trial period. **Developer response:** We appreciate you trying Journey and are sorry to hear that it didn’t meet your expectations, especially in terms of CarPlay compatibility and map detail. We strive to deliver a high-quality navigation experience, and it sounds like we have some work to do. Feedback like yours is crucial for us to identify and address gaps in our app's performance. Though you've opted to end your trial, we'd value any further feedback you could share about your experience or how we can improve. Please feel free to contact us at support@gowithjourney.com. Thank you for giving us a try, and we hope to have the opportunity to serve you better in the future. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Wow! *2025-06-20* The navigation style is smooth, and I love the different layers you can add onto the map.
