### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-07-16*

It did not automatically recognize my starting location, so I entered Capitol Grille. It said “try again.” I entered the address,, and it said “try again.” I tried entering the destination Orchestra Hall, and it said “try again.” I gave the address of Orchestra Hall, and it said “try again.” So I deleted the app from my phone and regretted wasting $0.99.

### 1/5 — Looped

*2017-12-28*

I pick start and pick destination. Check mark by destination and Minneapolis is in lower right corner. Then nothing. Try picking start location again and just loops between start and destination.

**Developer response:** We are sorry to hear this happened to you. We've tried to replicate what you described but wasn't able to - if you reply or email us with your iPhone model we can definitely keep trying to replicate this issue - because if we can replicate this we're confident we will patch this for you. All the best.

### 1/5 — Doesn't help.

*2017-10-30*

Waste of a dollar. Said I was already at my destination before I got into the building.

**Developer response:** We are sorry you had trouble - perhaps it's not totally obvious but we have a feature that allows you to update your current location by long pressing anywhere on the route in case things like this happens.. We will work to make that feature is more apparent - if you like you can reach us at aerciyas.skywalker@gmail.com for more assistance.

### 3/5 — Almost good

*2017-10-29*

It works well, but is a total battery drain. Developer needs to work on that. Also would be nice if it used AppleWatch to give directions too.

### 4/5 — Very helpful

*2017-06-14*

Have tried and failed to figure out skyway several times. This app got me there the first time with no problems.

### 5/5 — The beat for mpls

*2016-10-23*

Most useful app for people living in the twin cities!!!!!!
