Ratings and Reviews
Must have alternative for those without CarPlay
Love this app. It also has a lot of customization options and include an option to download podcasts and choose shortcuts to third party apps which open that app though not in the app as API but still amazing value for money.
Some feedback to improve the app further:
Note: The volume is very loud when switching between Navigation (and selecting a route) and playing a radio station or local music this seems caused by the fact that music uses a build in volume in the app which can be set separately while the volume for the navigation uses the volume from the phone.
Bug iPhone 8: Fix layout of time, weather, location on homescreen
- Navigation: show time and km till destination
- show music controls when navigating and possibly weather
- Make UI that apps/features on left hand when in horizontal as with Chinese Baidu’s CarLife+ and Apple CarPlay
- Add shuffle and previous button for music control
- Add weather details: amount and % of precipitation now and upcoming hours/days
- Audiobook support
- Cloud music support (iCloud, Dropbox, Gdrive)
Change the font type and colors on the images in the App Store which would make it more professional. You created something amazing in the core.
