Useless app

The app and website are pretty useless I’ve tried every address format possible and tried multiple addresses and get an invalid address error every time. Even if you select use current location it says unable to find nearby address. Hopefully the developers will fix the issues because the concept is cool and it would make planning long trips a lot easier.

Doesn’t work

Took me about 5 minutes to get so frustrated with this app I had to delete it. No matter how many times I tried, it would not accept an address. Also, when I tried to use my location, it couldn’t find me. Garbage.

Hasn’t work on apple products forvyears

Used this app extensively for several years on iphone. Then it would not show locations or routes. Call the developers and was told they were working on the app for ios. After 2 plus years I am still waiting. Was a great app but not is just junk. App should be removed from app store.

Doesn’t work

Not worth your time. Great concept, but it couldn’t find any starting address, even with the current location option. Developers: fix that feature first, then re-release and we’ll see if you’ve got a viable product!

Not good

I tried this map to navigate during severe weather and it did not work. Was not able to pick up my address. I really needed this at this time due to floods on several roads.

Caution:Read ratings before downloading

This app does not work at all on my iPhone 6. It will not recognize any address and gives you zero instructions. If I am doing something wrong I have no earthly idea what it could be!

Doesn’t work

Cannot “find address” even when you just enter a city and state. It’s obvious that the developers have not done a good job and are not trying to work out the bugs in this app.

Address always comes up as invalid

This app has the potential to be incredible. Unfortunately, he address always comes up as invalid. Please fix it. I believe it could saved lives. Thank you.

All Addresses Invalid

Same problem as many others. All addressed input, no matter how formatted, are rejected as Invalid.

Last update was 2 years ago. Has it been this way for 2 years?

Won’t accept address

Great concept but horrible execution. Won’t accept any address or even use the current location. Deleted the app 10 minutes after downloading it.

Does not recognize addresses

I tried putting in specific addresses and it does not recognize them. I tried General addresses such as Albuquerque, NM to Dallas, TX and it was still unable to recognize them.

Deleting.

Perhaps don’t publish until the app is ready for use

They say to use the web browser version, but that doesn’t work either. It says it’s unable to use your location. Then it says it can’t connect to the internet. My internet connection is fine.

Simply does not work

Promising idea. It would be great to plan a trip a week in advance and choose a route based on weather in the winter. But the app simply does not work. It should be taken down. Don’t put your home address in it.

Doesn’t Work

No matter how I format it, I can’t get any address combination to work. I tried: commas, no commas, caps, no caps, abbreviations, no abbreviations, etc. I even thought my addresses might be on lesser known streets so I tried the addresses of major landmarks in the corresponding cities. It’s all invalid.

Additionally, even if it did work it doesn’t support the copy/paste tool so all addresses have to be typed by hand. That makes entering unfamiliar addresses unnecessarily frustrating and increases potential for mistypes.

I’m disappointed because I would love an app that shows the weather along my travel route rather than having to piece together routes and local weather forecasts from several sources.

Not Prime Time

Loaded it and tried it. Just like previous commenters, it didn’t work. I put in departing from Spring, TX to Oklahoma City, OK. It came back and said “Sorry, the address you specified is invalid.” The authors need to take the app down until it is workable. With a rating of 1, people won’t even bother to download it.

We need an app like this. Hope you can make it work.

If I could rate lower, I would

Don’t bother with this app. I’m convinced no one monitors or updates it. No matter the combinations of address types I try (city, state) or (specific addresses at start and end locations), I just get an error message, making the app totally unusable.

Not working

Great when it worked...but a hot pile now. Type in any address and “Sorry, the address you specified is invalid. Please try again” is all you get, even with their own example address.

Absolutely ridiculous

You promised to fix the problems. I read your responses saying you would fix them and you respond in your own words not cliche responses that all say the same exact words. This is why I believed “hey they probably fixed this because they told each and every person that they would.” NOPE. Didn’t work at ALL.

“Chicago, IL is an invalid city. Please try again.”
What?^^
It’s 2018. This concept shouldn’t be complicated.

Would be great if it works

This app doesn’t work no matter what address to put in it constantly says address is invalid please fix your app because I could really use this when traveling back to my hometown especially during the winter

Can’t find address

I need to get to an airport from my home and it said the address couldn’t be found. Since it didn’t specify which address was the problem, I tried both a couple ways (current location, my home’s address, the address of the airport, the name of the airport), everything pulled up but when I hit go it would say not found.
