User reviews

Accurate and Impressive

Lowkey a good app for spirited driving. Corners were accurate and what surprised me was the callouts for road types. Very impressive.

Response from developer

Thanks a lot for the review! What would you like to see next in Rods? Write to me at tadas@driverods.com. 🏎️

Got to pay

Cant run a single route without paying pretty disappointing. At least give me 5-8 routes a day that I can use this guy on.

Response from developer

Sorry for the disappointment. Server and routing costs mean I am unable to offer free daily routes, but I appreciate you taking the time to try Rods.

Need CarPlay and French

Good

Response from developer

Thanks for the review! CarPlay is already supported in the app. What else would you like to see? Write to me at tadas@driverods.com.

App behind paywall, can’t delete account.

Don’t download, this app will force you to pair a credit or debit card and won’t let you delete your account, I saved myself before any charges could be made but I see the shady practice in action, be careful

Response from developer

Hey, sorry about the settings not appearing before the trial. Thats fixed in 1.7.6. Nobody is forcing you and even if you forget that you started a 14 day trial, you can always refund it within 90 days. Hope you give it another shot.

Excellent potential!

This could easily be the only driving app I use! Its great for navigating the city but really shines when you make a route and rip it around gravel roads! The creator is also always taking feedback and is super nice! Give the app a shot, you've got nothing to lose and plenty to gain!

Response from developer

Thanks a lot for the kind words! What would you like to see next? Let me know at tadas@driverods.com 🏎️
