I have contacted support team a few times with different issues and they always responded quickly and helped me to resolve my issues. I like the way they designed the software with privacy in mind, the way it calculates routes etc. The negative for me, and the reason it’s not my primary navigation app, the source for maps, traffic and red light cameras. In the past I bought Magic Earth Pro with TomTom maps and traffic. When they switched to the free maps at first they were ok. But after some update the map got corrupted in my area and basically there were some spots without any roads or streets. After some map updates it was corrected but now occasionally an app will recommend a turn on a road that is not even connected to the road I’m traveling or to make a turn on overpass or a bridge etc. bottom line the map source is not reliable as it was. So as I mentioned this is great software, professionally executed with the quality support team with the maps you can’t really trust.

Hello! We use OpenStreetMap, a collaborative mapping project that relies on contributions from users. Please tell us the locations and routes where you encountered problems (contacting us at support@) and we will check and fix the map as necessary.

I have been using GPS devices for 3 decades. I live in a country where it is still not possible to buy anything from the App Store. That is why it is very important that this App is really free, and there are no hidden costs. This off line GPS App is to be recommended. Guided precisely, I especially like rotating the map in a circular motion, which many autonomous (and expensive) devices do not. Clear, Intuitive, Simple. Clear functions. Huge selection of maps. Easy insertions points between the start and end point of the trip. Good choice of voices. Excellent organization of POI folders. It connects perfectly with the phonebook, with addresses from existing maps, house numbers are accurate. For those who use the HUD function - it works great. There is also the possibility of a dash cam. My rating is 10, if there was a possibility to save the programmed route, the rating would be 10+. This App is in the spirit of today, uses all the features of a smartphone. It can serve as an example to many device and software manufacturers. Kudos to the whole team who worked on this project.
Really good, hopefully improves

I’ve used this exclusively for a couple weeks. First thing before I forget: it respects your privacy. None of the others do. As for the rest, the navigation is really good. IMO, it is better than Apple Maps or Google. The interface, while needing some tweaks, is nice and clear. It shows addresses and businesses in the map while not feeling cluttered. It works really well with apple car mode (whatever that is called) with a few exceptions. When using the keyboard (on the car interface), there is no way to get rid of the keyboard after you’ve typed. This means you cannot see the results. It is also not as good at finding search results, sometimes suggesting something on the other side of the country when the correct listing is first in Apple Maps. Hopefully this gets better with time. TLDR: it’s private, works great in most regards. Hopefully improves. Definitely worth supporting.
Man what happened?

At first glance when I opened the app, it was all free which I've been using for not only personal, but also free to use. Even offline I've been looking for. And over their newest update, everything changed entirely. It's no longer free, but now it's all subscription. Trial ones? I don't want it. And I can't even close the subscription page, which got me thinking, “why? They're ruining the free one I did not ask for a subscription.” Worst of all, even if I kept the app, it's still unusable. And even saved locations. Someone asked you to add a trial subscription and made it 3x worse. I need a free one that is what the previous update where subscription wasn't a thing. Otherwise, I'll keep dropping to 1 star, hence, uninstalling the app sooner. And to those people who gave feedback to Magic Earth to add subscriptions, g o t o h e l l.
