NAVER Map, Navigation 4+

Slowly getting better

Hey Naver, thanks for making improvements to your English version, the 100s of thousands of non Korean tourists and otherwise appreciate your work. Two huge fundamental flaws should be a priority to fix though. The links from the English app should be to FAQ and Contact information in English, taking the user to a Hangul website for FAQ or Contact links isn’t helpful at all.

Also, please fix the hang up with accepting the Terms and conditions to link my LINE account.

Update: Two years from release of English version and still no English help section in English app. Better than Kakao and Waze, so far behind Google Maps and even Apple Maps now.

When relying on Suggested Lanes, be careful, those suggestions change drastically and leave you having to change 3-4 lines in 100 meters, I drive a lot and have learned the directions are just as unpredictable as Seoul traffic.

Worst update

Ive been using the phone in the us and brought to Korea, and the phone is still set in English and the app store being us version. The app worked just fine before the update and now it is horrible.
First of all, it takes forever to do anything, starting from locating myself and searching for places, and the app stalls occasionally. I also think it’s quite uncomfortable to translate every locations even when I search it in Korean(I have to double check because some places have different English name). I might give some credit to developers if they intended to make it comfortable for foreigners, but I think there should be an option to choose the preferred language.
Optimization needs to be done asap and some improvements too.

A lot of improvements can be made

It’s a decent app for getting around in Korea, but there are a lot of problems. It freezes or crashes quite often. It’s very annoying to save places, it often shows me error messages. Also the English version is clunky and confusing to navigate. Still has a long way to go before it can reach the level of Google Maps
