AutoNavi used to be the best English GPS in China for English speaking foreigners. I have lived here for 10 years and when I received my drivers license and car, I used it exclusively. Then suddenly it stopped working and would default to this Amaps with No English option and I cannot use. I now started using Apple maps or Waze as only English options I have been able to find. I really wish Amaps would bring back the English version, as it used to be the best English GPS here in China. So, I have to vote 1 star as I cannot vote no stars, as it is not giving me that option. Please Bring Back English Version!!!
Navigation is good but disgusting behavior

It was good at first. Then after a while it would gradually start showing “no internet connection” when I try to open the detail page. Instead it will redirect you to the log in page.(the internet is perfectly fine the whole time) And then after the app learned that I don’t need the detail page to do my basic search, it will show “no internet connection” when I perform any basic search. I totally understand that you don’t have the access to certain functions when you don’t log in, but this is disgusting because it could be dangerous when someone is out there and suddenly the navigation stops working. In my case l had a Chinese number before, but at the moment I simply can’t register with my foreign number. Apparently all this company wants is to collect your personal data.
A must-have app in China

I’m a big fan of this app. Was actually introduced to it because one of my favorite actors (Wang hedi) is their sponsor. I’m visiting China for the first time in 7 years and having this app is absolutely life changing going around. I’m able to find recommended sites, restaurants, order taxis, and even got tickets to the movie for a much cheaper value. I wish something like this existed in the States. Also love using the friends and family tracker. Honestly this is THE must have app in China. I will be recommending this to everyone who plans on traveling to China anytime soon or in the future.
Don’t get lost in China

The app is constantly innovating with different techniques to make it easier to navigate. And it also has tips for bikers, mopeds, driving cars, trucks (I never tried that!) and walking.Unfortunately it follows the concept of Chinese UI that they interfere usability with novelty. It would be a pleasure to avoid having splash screens and a decluttered interface. But so far it’s the best in China by far.
