Favorites freeze (again)

After I updated this app, favorite freezes up everything - it just shows "Loading favorites..." and doesnt proceed anymore.

Great update

This update fixed the problems I had with losing my favorites and I can read the screen again. Happy

Stay Away from THIS Update !!!

On iPhone 5S / IOS 8.1.2 the program crashes and erases the navigation info every time!!! The program just get worse with this update.

The worst GPS I ever seen

Warning Warning Warning do not buy this GPS Its the worst one on market more then half the time never give the right direction never take me to another direction when there is traffic its sucked so bad I payed 200$ to have this app plus the Option come with for nothing do not waste your money I repeat do not waste your money you will regret it you been warned.

Crashes, wont open.

I tap the icon, it shows for a few seconds, then crashes. iOS 7.1.2.

Uh oh

App wont run since the update. Suuuuuuuucks. Im sure itll be fixed shortly.

FAILED TO CALCULATE ROUTE

Lame. Doesnt work. Same error message every time I click Start Navigation

Poor App, iOS native maps more accurate

For expensive and what used to be reliable app Im disappointed. Tom Tom, Google, and IOS Maps are far more accurate and you want me to pay $40 for updated maps that Im willing to bet still wont have the roads that have been around for about three years now. The above mentioned apps added the roads that are now three years old without extra cost!!

Very good App, almost perfect! A few snafus

This App is very good. i have been using it for more than a year now and, in my case, I added traffic. In general it works really well, gives accurate instructions and easy to follow graphical instructions that warn of upcoming changes. So I recommend it!!! The latest version seems stuck in map manager mode and does not seem to download the maps fast enough although I have fast wifi at home. I have not been able to use it since I downloaded it a few days ago!! There are a few things that could be improved: 1-the App interface to enter directions is engineer-like (very logical and serial) starting with state, city, etc. This can be long and cumbersome. I would suggest to either have a Google maps like interface where one can enter the name of the business or street address and it goes right to directions. It would be useful if the app does not ask for state unless required by the customer, assuming the state and city of current position are a given. -It would be useful if the App had a "stop nab" or "exit nab" button right on the navigation screen. This App has a way of staying alive and consuming lots of battery life if one forgets to shut it down

Not possible to paste an address

The interface does not allow to paste an address in. It has the same dumb interface as on all Garmin products. You have to select state city and than enter street and number. What if you are trying to get to a campground? Very outdated interface. Also it thinks that it is mot possible to get from California to Utah on a motorcycle. we do that every summer. Stupid app

Garmin is a joke

Awful Deleted.. I cant do this anymore. I will take the loss.

Junk

Im in California and traveling to Oklahoma, it says the route is too long to navigate, Really?!?! I have all the states downloaded and messed with the settings. Stay away from the and use the free Google maps.

Changed my mind

I thought this was a great app when I first purchased it. It had a good interface and was easy to use, but it lacks one very important feature. It tells you about upcoming traffic problems, but doesnt route you around them. Even if a road is completely closed ahead, it sticks to the original route and says, "There is no recommend alternative route." Give me a break! Ive been using Google Maps instead lately. Its free, takes up almost no space on your device compared to Navigons 2.8 gig bulk, and it keeps up with traffic problems and guides you around them. Save your money and dont buy this app. Get Google Maps instead.

Once was great (Years later, years behind)

Garmin has the name; has the reputation that was “bar none” but, that was transitioning from the GPS dedicated only devices to the smart phones in 2008-2010. So, FIVE years later Garmin has invested in practically nothing. A new icon, some bug fixes over the years but, no innovation. This is typical of large companies that will invest once into a project and then milk it dry and for every penny it was ever capable of yielding. So instead of investing and innovating, lets make for certain we destroy a customer base. I have moved to SCOUT by Telenav Maps and it is capable of so much more and actually “re-routes” in real-time on all road conditions that block or slows travel.

NAVIGON IS NOT BEST GPS APP

I have purchased Tom Tom,Magellan Road mate,Motion X Gps Drive,Navigon-USA apps. Frankly speaking, None of the Apps are perfect. None of the above apps has melodious voice like Google or Waze has. Motion X has the Best Screen, easy to use favorites , contacts, done very nicely. Navigon does not have voice option- only default female voice which is harsh, not as melodious like Google maps. Navigon is not perfect for accurate navigation.Does not have ease of interface like Motion -X has. Navigon maps are ok . Extra charges for live traffic and live camera - every 1-2 years is not worth it. Navigon is Two Star for me

Old maps. YOU MUST PAY FOR MAPS

I am not one given to writing bad reviews but this is so bad I cant stand it. I have owned this app for over 4 years. Ever since I started using they will not update their maps, they expect you to pay to get newer maps. So absurd. I stopped using until recent hoping their base maps will at least be updated unfortunately no. So please dont wast your money. Just use google maps and you will be ok. I regret ever purchasing this app.

UPDATE: 7-17-15

Still love the app. Waiting on route numbers update. Hurry. Great app but this is frustrating.

Still my favorite!

Love the look and interface of the latest update as of 18-Jul-2015. It has a nice auto day/night mode. Only thing missing in the update is the settings for the Apple Watch in the new app! :-(

Not good

Used to be a great app. Now the maps (Texas) is old and not updated to 2015. To pay money for not updated maps is ridiculous. Hope it will be fixed.

5 wrong destinations out of 9 in Colorado

I have been using Navigon for the past 5 years and felt it was reliable but July 2015 update of the app did something to the app that ruined reliability completely, I can no longer count on Navigon for family trips, so now $59 is wasted. I traveled in Colorado and had 5 wrong destinations in 9 trips. Huge failure Navigon!
