I have had the immense pleasure and honor working with these amazingly professional and so kind and the patience of JOB, I might add. This patent team of men and women, my direct person ANGEL for the crazy questions I would ask at breakneck speed and sometimes through tears… he always maintained such a peaceful, calm demeanor all the while seeing and hearing my vision. As well as Miguel and Gilbran along with Angelia they could not have been more sweet and knowledgeable and very well versed in making sense of things for me. Christian, who I know I would call ( once on a Sunday morn, which I did only because I felt it was urgent) He took my call and put all my fears at bay without hesitation and was never abrupt or rushing. All in all, I had the best experience and learned so much from them all and when this is beyond the abstract and into the tangible it’s because they put in over 100 % because they really care. I would highly recommend anyone with a seed to give it to them they surely will create “The Garden of Eden”. Oh, and the company that referred me to them has a very strong instrumental ala carte flair of duty and delegations and they are very efficient. Thank you Amy , Maura and Lori. God Bless & Caio! xxxo Gypsy

Been using this app for years and it’s a good app, but…

It has problems that just don’t seem to be addressed. 1) If you submit a correction to the map (ie no left turn at an intersection), the change is adopted (yay) but then gets changed back to the erroneous display at a later update. (Boo) 2) each update seems to mute alerts. STOP IT! Why is this changing? Why do I need to find out my voice commands have been shut off yet again? I don’t need to try to sort this out after I’m on the road. 3) connection interruption with Car Play screws up the routing. If you have the “correct” route you’ve been following and say halfway there your carplay connection gets interrupted for whatever reason google maps will not display the route you were on, it will offer longer routes. No idea why it does this. You need to back up and re-set “your location” again and then ask for directions to get the original route to reappear. Again, not something that you should have to sort out when on the road. 4) very reluctant to offer alternative routes. You can get caught up in a 30 minute delay of traffic and there are alternative routes available and it will not offer them. 5) poor judge of traffic delays based on historic data. I know how bad traffic is on certain days and times where I live. Google Maps consistently underestimates travel time when you select “leave by” reminders by a good 15-20%. This hasn’t changed in the decade+ I’ve been using the app.

Alright

It’s alright. Buggy sometimes even with good signal. When I search along the route it will sometimes not come up with any search results, only for me to pass the very thing I searched for prior in my drive. And no it wasn’t a new business, it had been around for years. Also when I search places, one will say it’s 10 minutes out of the way while the other says only a few. Only to realize that the faster one ended up not being as simple as they said, and that the slower one (+10 minutes) was only slow because for some reason it had me take side roads completely around it before arriving, when I could have simply turned directly into it from the road I was on, making it a quick trip. Not all gas stations show up in searches, it almost seems to favor the expensive gas stations. There’s doesn’t seem to be an algorithm that keeps track of the bad traffic times. It will re rout my whole trip to a significantly slower route if it senses traffic, even if that traffic is close to the end of my trip hours away and will be cleared well before I get to that point. If you’re a contractor that has to go in and out of many neighborhoods, it normally recognizes certain entrances while not recognizing others, so it will take you completely around the neighborhood 30 minutes away to the other entrance when you have just passed a perfectly good entrance that has been around forever. It’s still one of the better gps apps, but still way to buggy to trust it
