What were they thinking?
Well, obviously they were thinking of the data they can sell.
Used to be five star, but the latest update keeps insisting that Location Services MUST BE SET TO ALWAYS.
No, they must not be. Why on earth would you want navigation software to keep tracking you when you’re not using it? Other than feeding them more data to sell.

Aussie made navigation but not ready for iOS 26
UI is awful tbh. Why haven’t you guys update the UI to more modern design?
Also if you don’t mind to update your app to work with iOS 26. Thank you

Good System for Phone + iPad but when is on CarPlay the names of the streets disappeared…..I like to see those again……Thank you
Navigation
The best phone based navigation app I have used.
Best around
Had this app for around 20 years. Tried everything else and always come back to this. One little glitch in Apple CarPlay is over speeding speed voice doesn’t seem to switch off. Hate it. Only does it when actually navigating. Bit irritating for me but the midden gem is the border colour changes. Brilliant idea lads !!

Aussie made navigation
Haven’t used it just yet but I hope we get junction view signage’s when navigating on CarPlay!! Exiting or entering HWY is a must and specially in Sydney with new M8, M6 etc.. is a mess and confusing. Also Sydney airport.
Edit review : just used carplay and there is no option for HOME OR WORK button lol. That's most important on carplay 🤦♂️

One of the best but some issues
Can’t find a better app especially at that price but some minor issues.
(1) At random times for no apparent reason the voice announces “trip error” and the route you’re navigating disappears from the screen.
(2) Changes to roads and speed limits take a long time to appear on map updates. Eg. a new housing subdivision with new streets still not showing up after more than a year despite a number of updates.
(3) Sometimes directs you to minor gravel roads when more convenient main roads are available

Just brilliant.
I have had MetroView for about 15 years. It’s been great. I specially if you are travelling and have no internet reception on your phone. It’s great to have an app developed in Australia for Australian roads. I use it on Apple CarPlay and its responses are really good. I would recommend to everyone with an iPhone.

Options
Love your app but the only thing I have a issue with is there are no options for alternative routes as apple maps have, would to have this option in your app
Best Offline GPS
The best offline GPS hands down. This has come in handy so many times with the camera notifications as well and regular map updates.
Better than expected
I’ve been using this app for a little over two months now, and I must say when I first opened it I thought the interface was going to be a bit clunky! But, after the first week its turned out to be quite intuitive and very handy. It’s now my goto app for street navigation. Some of the most useful functions are the advanced voice notifications for the “Speed Zone Changes”, especially school zones. You also have the ability to tap the speed sign in the bottom left corner of the screen, to change your map view to display your current speed in large digital format. When you exceed the speed limit the numerals change from white to red. The map sizing is also intuitive. As you speed up the map zooms out, showing more roads, and as you slow down the map automatically zooms in. Very logical and helpful. There is only one issue I have with the app which is probably only relevant to use on an iPad. I have a Gen9 iPad which I use in landscape format. Some may say an iPad is way to big, but it works amazingly well, especially when connected simultaneously as the monitor to a rear view camera. To do this, the navigation app needs the ability to do “Split Screen View” allowing two apps to run side by side simultaneously. Unfortunately Metroview doesn’t have this capability at present. I use a rear view camera when towing my boat or car trailer for improved safety and vision, especially when changing lanes. To do this, I have to revert back to using Google Maps or Apple Maps, which is a shame because “Metroview” ticks all the boxes except “ Split Screen View”. So to the app designers, can you please incorporate “ Split Screen View” to your next upgrade. It’s the only thing missing. I have only given 4 stars because as a subscription based app, I can only use it when not towing which is about 70% of usage. Very pleased with the app though.

MetroView best app ever!!!
Best gps I’ve ever used and I tried them all. This is simple to use clear notifications no silly gimmicks. It’s the best!!!!!
3 star for me because
Thanks for the reply and yes I found it.
One more thing I noticed and done everything to see if it fixes it but nope it’s a bug. It’s when I search with voice a address or anything else it says > No internet connection. Could you look into it please via CarPlay. I haven’t tried on my iPhone but might be the same.

Thanks for this app. And for your privacy policy
Suggestion s
- please provide option to inactivate the automatic start navigation feature. Many times i first want to see the location of a poi without navigating to it
- the voice could be improved
- option to remove the safety sounds would be good
Keep it up! Thanks

Reduced speed new feature 👍👏
Reduced speed limit early warning brand new feature is really helpful.
Was a big surprise though.
Nice Christmas gift team.

The best value for money
This is the best app with expert support and free updates. You won’t find a better support and maintained application
Save your licence, livelihood & life
This app has a comprehensive database of speed limits, included timed school zones. Set the alert for 3km/h over the speed limit and it is easy to drive within speed limits.
This app works in the background with Carplay so you can still receive speed alerts while using another navigation app.
Road safety research has repeatedly confirmed that half of the serious crashes involving a vehicle travelling at 5 to 10km/h over the speed limit would not have occured if that vehicle had been within the speed limit.

Update your speed limit
I love this app. We have it for a long time now but guys you need to update your app. We are located in South Australia and your speed limits in some road aren't up to date. You need to check it out.
Overall good app
overall the mapping software seems to work fine, speed alerts and display arer a handy touch, would like to be able to plan and save a custom route with more than one waypoint as it tends to divert back to point to point which will get you out of trouble but makes planning a trip difficult.
