## Most critical reviews (7 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Unhappy

*2022-03-12, version 2.1.2*

This is not a good app

### 2/5 — Very poor maps, out of date

*2016-05-16, version 2.0.1*

Not only were the maps out of date, but the interface is very strange requiring you to do such things as to going to settings to enable headphones, which then required you to restart the app before you could use headphones

### 4/5 — Potentially good navigational tool for the blind.

*2015-07-01, version 2.0.0*

This is a potentially good app for those of us who need walking directions. However, I would like to see this ability also expand to driving places as well. I would also like to see this app, use feet and miles instead of yards. This is a bit confusing to some who don't know the metric system. From what I can gather, I enjoy using this app a lot. I'm going to try a walking route to see if this is actually accurate.

### 5/5 — Great app, but it’s a shame that it’s going to be going away on the next watch iOS update.

*2018-07-25, version 2.0.2*

This is a great app, very helpful, and easy to use, but I received a notification that the app will no longer work when the next watchOS release comes out unless the app is updated. I hope that somebody is working on it, because it would be a shame to see such a great app disappear because somebody gave up on it! Please save our app!

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2016-06-28, version 2.0.1*

Even though being completely blind I love to stay mobile and independent. This app majorly helps with that. It is very useful, easy to use and has lots of cool functions. I use it all of the time to walk to my favorite stores and hangouts and to explore unknown routes and locations. And bonus unlike other navigation apps for the blind and visually impaired it's not outrageously priced. It's completely free. And no ads or in-app purchases. Tons of thanks to the developers.

### 5/5 — Merci

*2015-08-22*

Super et merci pour l'application. Continuer

### 5/5 — The best GPS app for low vision users

*2015-07-01, version 2.0.0*

Now I can have just one app to replace all my GPS apps for my needs. This is well designed app.  Great work!
