1/5Doesn’t work half the time
I’m always receiving errors messages on how it’s not work, or the map can’t update at this moment. Pretty much a waste of time. I’ve tried taking off WiFi and using regular internet. Displays the same info regardless of the network I’m using. App was working a few months ago. Now it’s not.
