good, not great
I just finished a 250 mile trip from Philadelphia to Western, Massachusetts using this app almost the entire trip. My impressions:
1. First of all, a great idea for an app. Was just thinking that I needed something like this when I discovered it, and it was free.
2. Map rendering is far slower than the iPhones Maps app. Generally, I prefer to stay as far away from anything Microsoft as possible, but a maps a map, right? Well, almost. Just a personal preference, but I noticed that maps for this app do not include all rail lines. Just like to know where they are. Also, too many times, the map rendering would just freeze. On a 5 hour trip, I restarted the application no fewer than 4 times just to update my location. I had no problem with location accuracy, however.
3. I would really like to see traffic conditions added to this app. I had to switch from one app to another just to check on traffic.
4. The sleep lock sometimes worked. Sometimes didnt.
5. The app did not save me once on the trip. I did pass three active traps that were not located by the app. I had some trouble entering them in the app each time. First time, it just wouldnt work. Second time, it froze the app. Third time, it seemed to work okay. Program was very jerky and often unresponsive to gestures.
6. Love the alerts. Nicely done, but do I really need to hear about a speed trap on a secondary road when Im on the interstate?
