i agree. ive used a lot of gps units. a lot have the same problem Waze has: telling you to make turns that end you back up on the same road you were driving on. i have yet to see something better than Google Maps. Mainly because google maps/nav never seems screws up. its traffic prediction is very accurate as well.
the only thing another app can do is add features such as speedometer, which is built into my car. so it seems unnecessary.

This. It’s hard to compete with free. It has to be a whole lot better than Google to be worth paying any money at all.

Given how expensive TomTom devices and map updates are, I can’t imagine the app will suddenly be a good deal.

The Waze routing engine sucks. Haven’t you ever seen it try to direct you off a highway interchange, then immediately back on?

I agree. Plus with a little bit of “skitch” magic you can plan out your entire route beforehand so even if data goes out, no biggie. But I also believe people can spend there own money on whatever they want. This mite be handy for truckdrivers who’s roadtime is money. They can’t afford to get caught up in local accidents or construction

Probably because 99% of the site’s visitors DO NOT need navigation outside of NA.

If I want something better I would just buy a standalone.

Don’t see why anyone would ever spend 60$ on something that is free with google maps
