Feedback on Navigation Voice Guidance for Two‑Wheeler Riders
I regularly use Mappls for navigation while riding my two‑wheeler. The voice guidance is clear, but the volume feels normal and not loud enough to be heard easily in traffic or with helmet noise. It would be very helpful if Mappls could add a feature to make navigation prompts louder (similar to Google Maps’ “Louder” option), so riders don’t miss important turns or instructions, Thanks.

Needs improvement
The satellite maps in mapples is completely out of date. It is hard to believe that mapmyindia is provider of maps in apple maps as well but there satellite maps is up to date. What happened with mapples then? The user experience is also sub-par. The maps are so cluttered and confusing. They look pretty dated compared to Google and Apple maps. I want this app to be much better compared to those. I keep this app on my phone in a hope that some day their UX team will do a better job with design and they will beat apple and google maps in terms of simplicity and user experience. But this is India I suppose and innovation is sort of missing in our DNA.

Subpar QC testing on CarPlay
I appreciate all this app does. It’s a fine mapping solution, with an app that just works and is smooth on CarPlay. I love the real time traffic info the most. Keeps it fun. But it does need more refinement.
Firstly, CarPlay needs work. Audio always starts on by default. It doesn’t care if I kept it off the previous time. The navigation ALWAYS has audio turned on to full blast. It’s annoying. That bug needs to be fixed.
Second, related to CarPlay, it’s super hard to report obstacles or potholes via the car. There’s no button to scroll through the options and if you try to find more, it will def accidentally choose an option you didn’t mean to. Overall you need your testers to do their jobs and TEST THE APP in CarPlay before launching updates. Fix the reporting pages n options in the car!
Third, please revamp the home page of the app. Get rid of the unnecessary ads. Yes, I don’t want to see that eye sore of banners about MAPPLS and lord knows what. I just need directions.
Besides that, keep up the good work. Hope to see fixes soon.

It is not able to detect the location in my iPhone however location permissions is selected to always. Google map is working perfectly. Also compare the detailing and interface with google map and waze .
Mapping India, the Right Way
Kudos to the Mappls team for building a navigation platform that actually understands India. The attention to hyper-local details—villages, narrow lanes, complex addresses, tolls, and real driving conditions—shows serious ground-level work, not just satellite mapping.
Features like DigiPin, trip cost estimation, and India-specific alerts make a real difference for everyday users and long-distance travellers alike. It’s refreshing to see an Indian product solving Indian problems thoughtfully and confidently.
The app is steadily improving, and with continued polish in UI and real-time traffic depth, Mappls has the potential to become the default navigation choice for the country. Please keep pushing boundaries—this is a strong, meaningful step towards digital self-reliance, and many users are rooting for you.
Keep going. You’re building something that truly matters. 🇮🇳🚗

Excellent
Rerouting feature is either absent or doesn’t work
I searched for directions between point A&B, it found three routes, I picked one and started driving. With in a KM or so, I missed a turn. But since I wasn’t completely new to the city, I found that I’m on an alternate route, so I continued on that. But the app, instead of rerouting to the new route I was taking, kept showing me directions to turn to take me back to the original route, which was unnecessary. I had to stop navigation, pick the alternate route I was on and start it again for it continue in right direction. Some work is needed on this.

Wan to give 0 stars
Downloaded for sake of seeing road conditions mainly speed brakers to avoid speeding due to back problems. App didn’t help at all, i had my hopes high for nothing.
Need major work on CarPlay system
Too glitchy after connecting to CarPlay, using Mappls to promote Indian bale and but need some development there
Moreover certain routes suggested are suitable for cars, so I had google maps started simultaneously

Route option are limited
1. User do not have option/settings to select highway/express way. even it takes more time few drivers prefer it.
2. Sometimes it gives wrong directions , eg from signal even if right turn is allowed it ask for left turn and then u turn unnecessarily
3. Cost calculation is good but don’t store your option every time need to change fuel type.
4. There should be options to mute individual notifications. Like if i want notifications for speed breakers but not for sharp turns i cannot do it.

Honest review
Alright, let me make one thing clear — I’m not a bot, and I’m definitely not being paid. I don’t usually write reviews either, but this app actually made me want to write one (not like “forced,” but genuinely impressed me).
This app is brilliant. And by brilliant, I mean excellent.
This is my second time installing it. The first time was back when the whole Swadeshi movement buzz started and Mappls was in its initial phase. Back then, it wasn’t great — slow movement, laggy interface, roads barely visible, and not precise at all. So I uninstalled it. I didn’t leave a review because I figured it was still in development.
Fast-forward to last month — I downloaded it again. And my god, I was impressed. They’ve improved massively. No more lag, smooth movement, and the best part — it’s accurate. So precise that sometimes it doesn’t even feel real.
Let me share my experience. I recently visited Manali, and honestly, I was hesitant to rely on Mappls. You know how hilly areas can be — narrow roads, patchy signals, all that. But this app didn’t fail me. Not a single wrong turn. Even Google Maps has messed up on me before in remote areas, but Mappls didn’t.
And here’s the thing — it doesn’t just track car movement or traffic; it actually accumulates data using AI. Parts of Manali are under construction, and the app showed yellow and red zones. I was confused at first — there wasn’t any visible traffic. Then I realized, cars were slowing down at those points, so the app flagged them as potential slow zones. That’s brilliant.
Sure, there are still a few updates they could work on, but overall — they’re going solid. Respect to the team.

Need to fix time
Great app. Especially for a made in India so have been using it and enjoying it. Only thing is, you guys need to work on giving more accurate time to destination. Google maps & Apple Maps are showing different time (actual) and your app is showing a lesser time, always. Also the pointer needs to be on the road not next to it. That messes up the direction a lot as the map is thinking the car is at a different location and shows alternative route.

Patriotism≠ perfection | No bias, Just Honesty.
Maples is an ambitious Indian mapping app aiming to compete with Google Maps and Apple Maps. The idea behind it is promising, but the execution is still flawed.
The 360°/street-level view is blurry and pixelated, akin to 480p-720p quality. While the images capture the buildings and surroundings, the low quality makes the experience poor.
When sliding, rotating and using the on-screen navigation arrows, the app often lags. There are times the app is completely unresponsive for a few seconds, which makes exploring frustrating.
Maples is still enhanced by the addition of 3D navigation for multi-floor destinations and the interactive arrows for forward and backward movement. Even though these are great ideas, they would be better appreciated if the app performed better.
The design of the interface and the touch icons, which is also a major part of the user experience, needs to be worked on. There needs to be a more precise and responsive design for the system to be more intuitive, which will also help navigation.
Just because it is Maples doesn't mean I will ignore it's flaws. Being an Indian app doesn't mean I will overlook its flaws. Patriotism should not trump performance, which is the ultimate benchmark to be met.
Suggestions:
- Upgrade 3D/street imagery to 1080p+ resolution.
- Optimize performance and reduce lag.
- Improve UI responsiveness and icon design.
- Ensure smoother 360° view and virtual navigation.
Conclusion: As highlighted, the Maples app has several basic, yet crucial features which it needs to fine-tune the basics of clarity, responsiveness and performance.

Feedback for features
Its good to have a homegrown app and today I thought of trying it . Some of the feedback points:
1. App does not update traffic condition in real time. Mostly it was red to me but I was easily driving 40-50kmph
2. Its confusing to know whether to take highway or not. Its good your 3D feature but not very super helpful. Its good to have. A driver which is your user also has fraction of time to decide whether to take highway and not checking 3D layout of road to decide is too much. This seems over-engineering. Please enhance on this feature. Also try to solve when you have 3 roads to decide from like in Noida around
