I’ve been using this VILLAGE GPS app for awhile on n off. When I first started using it, it had some issues, however these guys are really interested in improving I found out after I wrote to them. After learning of the issues I faced, they quickly made some improvements. The app has some features I find very helpful. Like the point to point. This feature assists you to know beforehand the distance, time, n directions of your proposed destinations beforehand. Additionally you can view your trip in two modes. Standard n hybrid. The hybrid shows the map exactly as it actually is. Not a composite like the standard. You get to see the actual streets n buildings, everything you will encounter as you drive. I mainly drive a golf cart n love driving along the beautiful scenery here at the villages. I recommend this app to all new residents!! Their directions get you from point to point more rapidly n directly than the other app!! I also found!! A plus!!! 👍🏻

This a very intuitive and user friendly app. I have spent a lifetime living in a city that is a simple grid layout and without GPS traveling to new places can be confusing. And that is just using roadways now there is a major network of beautiful golf cart paths to explore. Entering an address is simple and using the preloaded destinations for shopping, country clubs, golf courses town squares are just a few screen touch away. As a new full time Villages villa owner this GPS makes me feel “at home”. I travel this paradise with confidence. A trip by cart or car to a Town Square, a Rec Center, a golf course or a shopping run is a breeze. I have seen some great scenery, nature and wildlife. It has taken me through places I never saw during the Lifestyle experience. Almost I every I discover something new.

This app is a must for anyone living or even vacationing in The Villages. It’s good with information about different locations around the community. Where it excels and is a must have is GPS navigation in a golf cart. The Villages is so vast and so many miles of golf cart paths. The app provides everything you are used to in a mapping app but for golf carts. Turn by turn navigation and ETA are the biggest. (It also does time/directions to locations in a car but I just use my standard navigation for that.)Some of the other features may be great. I just don’t use them. The navigation alone makes this app a winner. I wish I could give it more stars! Do not worry about the $7 price. It will be the best $7 you will ever spend!

I had been using the previous version of the app on my iPhone (iPhone 11), which wasn’t geared toward iphones. It kept crashing. I finally got around to contacting the people at “Villages GPS” by email and they responded within a matter of minutes. There were a few emails back and forth during which it was explained to me that I needed the new version of the app which does work on iPhones. I downloaded the new version, tested it out over the past few days, and am very happy with it. I highly recommend it! I think the people who have left bad reviews probably are using an older version of the app.
