Update The recent update solves it all in one fell swoop Now a true 5 star app Two small issues the auto zoom does not happen at all turn sections and the step in the beginning of a route to choose between Public Transportation Vehicle and sometimes Pedestrian when nearby is one step too many There is a option to choose Pedestrian mode and maybe there should be one for Public Transportation as well This should be available as options and one should be choosable as the default OLD POST This app takes a little while to figure out but then it is fantastic It is expensive but given the money I have spent on other GPS apps and map updates it would not have been so bad if I had bought this first The auto zoom feature is extremely helpful and the rerouting is fast All maps can be preloaded and while this uses a lot of memory you can choose which ones to download which helps a lot No more getting lost when out of cell range saves bandwidth when using wifi for downloads I can go on and on about the good features One pain though Im not sure about other areas yet but when in the Portland and Seattle areas it would always use the North description for freeways such as Turn onto I5 NORTH towards Portland even when you are North of the city and it should be I5 SOUTH This happens all the time and is quite annoying All in all a really good tool                 The best by far
You did an update Now it wont open It just crashes I need this for work Youre update put me in a bad spot Im a tractor trailer driver and go somewhere new every trip Thanks for the so called update     New update
Im going on a trip to California next month I plan to explore some areas that probably wont have cell service let alone data I didnt want to lug along a GPS unit so I thought Id use my phone and I need a program that stores maps offline This program seemed promising but wow its got issues First my street address doesnt exist It exists on other mapping services so its not like it cant be found Secondly it does bizarre routing I tried to select a location about 10 miles away and it turned it into an 18 mile trip At one point during my trip it attempted to add a detour to an intersection that was a 14 mile awaystraight ahead If I cant trust it to do a simple route with 4 turns how can I trust it in an area I dont know Ive requested a refund I did like that I could download only the states I need even over a data connection if needed The interface is klunky but none of these GPS apps or real GPS ever seem to get that right The graphics were fine and the voice guidance was very clear even if it did nag me about speeding when I was driving the right speed It would have been nice if they had some sort of trial version so I could check it out before making the purchase Given that this is a German company maybe their European maps are better        Could not do the job on a simple route to town
An awesome app with one MAJOR dealbreaking flaw You cant update any of the databases from outside the app on your mobile device In other words if theres an update to the maps or terrain or whatever you have to open the app on your device connect to wifi and download it It cannot be done through iTunes on your computer These updates are often hundreds of MB Painful especially if youre someone who needs Navigon say someone who would be using a hotel WiFi to update One consequence of this if you need to update a single states map or just the Panorama View 3D or Speedcams etc in my experience theres a high likelihood of the download hanging up freezing with no apparent way to get out of it Since Navigon doesnt provide any support to speak of I muddled through did soft hard resets etc but in the end the only recourse is to delete reinstall the entire app which entails hours and hours AND HOURS of more downloading over the wifi connected to my iPad Which means my mobile device isnt mobile It stands to reason that Navigon users would be TRAVELERS in need of their devices for activities other than hanging around a WiFi downloading huge files Cmon Navigon get off the stick and fix this so we can download stuff onto our laptops sync at our leisure This would also benefit folks like me who have your app both on our iPad and iPhone this basically doubles my pain and expense especially if the hotel charges more for WiFi access to multiple devices Also supposedly to save you money with your service provider the databases wont download unless NAVIGON app is active and the iOS device has access to a WiFi network Sounds like a good idea right I found that the app will indeed download these huge files from the cellular network provided that WiFi was active at the OUTSET of the download The hotels WiFi tripped off for some reason and Navigon happily chugged along downloading from the cellular network resulting in some hefty fees for a loyal customer So Navigon Im hanging in there You have a great app BUT it gets tougher and tougher to like you guys with each painful update I go through As for people reading this considering purchase Id put a lot of thought into how much frustration youre willing to endure to use a truly nice navigation app           Nice App Painful to Maintain Databases Though
Apple popped this up as my previous review from years ago and now its fixed I realize this may be more challenging why cant I put in an address in normal order 123 street name town name This removes a major irritation I need off line navigation so Navigon is important to me Better than most of the apps Ive tried in showing you what to expect Showing which lanes to be in for one But the other day it was rather challenged on a five street intersection where I needed to take the second right which was almost straight ahead maybe 15 turn The first right was a very hard right The only way to figure out where we were supposed to go was study the main map display which isnt what one whats to do in the middle of LA traffic              Major improvement
This needs to be iBook compatible When there is an announcement the audio just stops Otherwise I love this app              This I a great GPS App but please fix audio book
Been using it for years I keep trying Unfortunately it just isnt dependable In Austin TX yesterday and twice the audio confused lefts and rights I like the visual and speed warning and use it for long distances but not confident when in a hurry     I keep trying
I have to agree with InetMsg Navigon still doesnt SPEAK the correct direction sometimes when taking an exit from an interstatehighway onto another interstatehighway I even contacted Navigon support and gave them COORDINATES on where I started ended and where Navigon spoke the incorrect compass direction for the exit I was supposed to take Im supposed to take the exit going West toward Birmingham Alabama but it tells me to go East toward Birmingham Alabama on screen the displayed direction for the exit is correct If anyone else is having this issue please contact Navigon support with examples I used Google maps to figure out what coordinates to give This issue started happening in the June 2014 version Ive had this program since my iPhone 3Gs I think that was version 4 of the program Cmon Navigon you can do better than this        Version 2101 Still Directionally Challenged
Copy and paste search is finally on Navigon Beautiful interface too                 Finally easy search
When I select a spot on the map It shows coordinates at that location instead of the address I wish you could fix that Otherwise a great app Interim destinations need to be able to change the order of the destinations           Indentifying addresses on map
Using a contact to set the destination address no longer works The data is imported incorrectly and the zip code is used as the house number Until this is fixed this app is both expensive and USELESS     Contacts no longer work
Navigon is one of the only apps to offer audiobook support stops audio playback during nav directions However after Apples latest update that moved audiobooks to iBooks audiobook playback stops but does not properly resume Music still works properly I hope this will be fixed soon Otherwise excellent app                 Great App but problem with iBooks Audio
Navigon has been my goto Mac app since I first used it way back on the iPhone 3GS Not even the mighty Google can top it in my opinion When Garnin purchased Navigon and came out with the Víago app which I also use I worried that maybe Navigon would be forsaken Im so glad I was wrong While I will admit that I do like how Víago has a better display of street names on the map better scaling of the map as turns and destinations come up and makes MUCH better choices about routing around traffic I still find I prefer Navigon features and behavior for everything else I especially loathe how Víago handles map download selections when it chooses to announce upcoming turns and how it displays that information its gotten me lost several times Nothing beats Navigons active lane guidance and Im really enjoying the new street sign display and THANK YOU for biggermore readable speed limit displays My only real peeve about Navigon It has this very obnoxious habit of deciding that traffic is moving too slowly on the highway and giving me a detour where it takes me off at an exit and then asks me to get right back onto the highway Really And this has been an issue for years now What really struck me recently was that a particular detour Ive gotten used to with Víago was missed by Navigon which instead decided after asking me to exit the highway that really it was better to get back on Sigh Dont backtrack Garmin Take the small number of things that Viago does better and bring them back to Navigon Of the two products this one is far closer to perfection in my opinion having used them both              Thank you for the update
Ive used Navigon literally for years on my iPhone Recently the voice directions routinely say West when the text instructions say East and likewise confuses North and South The onscreen directions are correct but the voice instructions make these rather crucial errors I rely on the voice instructions so I can keep my eyes on traffic so this is a serious bug           Mixes up E and W N and S
If youre struggling to get any Apple Watch functionality you need to go to General settings and then choose favorites to send to Navigon on your Apple Watch FYI           Apple Watch integration not very seamless
I would like a integration with maps like other GPS in the market since I pay a lot of money for this one how come I pay nothing for the other ones and it works better ie waze The best GPS right now in the market and its free Navigon you used to be my go to GPS for my Apple device what happened     Integration with maps
New updates throughout the years I have used this app and have never had any issues with finding my locations Very happy with this GPS app                 Recommend
Everyone I fixed the crash issue on mine I deleted the app and reinstalled and works great now My maps also downloaded super fast on good wifi So do it                 I just done update and crashes
Ive used Navigon for several years now and worked with both Apple and Google maps The new oneline address entry fixes the only complaint Ive ever had with the software its now much easier to enter your destination Navigon works without an active cell connection has far more accurate maps than Apple and an interface that helps with picking the right highway lane avoiding congestion and even catching yourself inadvertently speeding if you like This is BY FAR the best navigation software available for the iPhone Period                 Best in Market
Good app overall Unfortunately once you add three favorites to your Apple watch you can never change or delete them Kind of a dumb design           Apple watch bugs
Used to work but failed to launch downloaded maps after update     Does not work for iPhone 6 plus
The latest update has a really frustrating glitch Every time Im on a freeway offramp Navigon says CAUTION over and over again I HATE this bug It makes no difference if I change the speed warning to NEVER or 20mph over it still keeps saying CAUTION when I go 5 miles over the speed limit Another buggy update sheesh     Speed warnings wont turn off
I purchased this app before my drive towards Tennessee My intention of having this was to provide a name brand navigation system to my phone since I did not like google that much I used it for mainly the trip and having the speed limit was great but annoying as well As long as you downloaded the maps in route it worked fine Well I downloaded all the maps and it says my calculations have failed and the route is too far Really too far So are you telling me I need to use shorter destinations so I can start each trip over again Something has happened with this app I paid 60 dollars and its has turned into something thats not worth even getting for free I have ATT and an iPhone 6 its not my service or the phone The app needs a rehaul I am deleting this for now Hope you listen to your users that purchased this app if not More will avoid this application all together     Something went wrong
Great app but stinks that every time you need it it wont run unless you download updates You should be able to update later and still use the app I end up having to use google after spending all that money for the app     Too many updates
Favorite places still freezes iPhone 6     Save your money
73015 update NEEDS IMMEDIATE WORK Lowering ratings to 1 Latest iOS update all audiobooks have been moved from iTunes to iBook You can start an audiobook but as soon as Navigons audio direction starts the book pauses and never resumes I listen to audiobooks whenever I use Navigon SO THIS DOES NOT WORK FOR ME as it means I will be taking my eyes off the road to turn the book back on for every single audio direction PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE MAKE THIS WORK AGAIN WHEN IT DOES MY RATING WILL GO UP TO 5 STARS AGAIN 52811 5 stars SO IMPRESSIVE After playing with it very impressive I actually like it much better than my Tom Tom standalone GPS I absolutely love the ease in getting to places in my contacts list I thought all the options made it easy to personalize it for my daytoday needs I love how it pauses my audiobook while giving directions or during a phone call Everything seems smooth so far Thanks for a great product NEW NOTE After using for quite a few months Im even more impressed I did purchase the 3D version and it completely enhances the experience I have completely stopped using my Tom Tom now Thanks again for a really well built product     NEEDS IMMEDIATE WORK
Ver212 Finally oneline search Ver1x In overall functionality and usability I like MotionX better than Navigon Only reason I use Navigon is that it doesnt need 3G connection for map downloading I occasionally go to places theres no ATT reception In such locations MotionX is not usable But Navigon works So if MotionX would come with map data I wouldnt use Navigon              Map data comes with it
App crashes on launch on my iPhone 5 w iOS 7 I paid for this app Pls fix ASAP     Latest update crashes on launch
With this update the app crashes on launch with an iPhone 4s running iOS7 Fortunately I have not synced with this version and can probably revert the change Please fix this ASAP as I rely on this app     This update broke the app on i4s OS7
If you intend to buy NAVIGON to use with your vehicles AIRPLAY or MIRRORLINK capabilities currently licensing restrictions prevent using that capability I tested it with my vehicles MIRRORLINK and AIRPLAY with an APPLETV and received the same error message As far as the applications capabilities it is very similar to my Garmin standalone unit which I would rate as 4 stars Ive had no problems with directions from the current application except that it doesnt know where the county lines are located which implies the map may have problems with similar boundaries Despite my disappointment as a standalone unit with no cellular data I would still recommend Garmin over others I have used basically since they keep their maps more relevant           NAVIGON does not work with AIRPLAY or MIRRORLINK
This has been my goto GPS app for many years It was a real problem when they removed the Google search feature Local search is gradually improving but there are still many things it cant find Please improve search or return to Google           Good overall Search needs improving
The latest update made Navigon even better than before as if it even needed any improvementsThe best navigation GPS app on the market It is easy to use always accurate with a pleasant voice to guide me Updates are simple to do there is no loss of personal POI Thank you NAVIGON team                 It cant get any better
This app is an excellent one especially since it shows the speed limit in the area you are driving and warns you if you are above it an adjustable number No other app I know of provides the speed limit enforced in that area Not even just the speedometer ones I think this app has unfairly low rating as people are always looking for free cheap stuff I have been using it for 56 years and besides some occasional glitches no problems                 Unfair people excellent app
Crashes when you start it     Worse than ever
The Best Zero issues                 Works great
Ive been a connoisseur of navigation apps since the app store opened They all have their particular strengths and weaknesses but I have found this app to be the most complete of all of them I use Apple maps for my noncritical shortdistancearoundtown needs but I havent found anything that can touch Navigon for serious road trips                 Best in Class
The self contained maps have often been crucial I cant compare it to similar products because I havent used them but Ive generally been happy with it and recommended it to family and friends I want to bring something to the attention of the publisher and this may be the only way When I want to just look at the map streets not going east west dont get labeled at all well They need to learn how to label vertical and tilted streets But mostly Im pleased              Ive used it for 6 years
With my 15 years experience with many navigation tools this is the only one I can recommend with all my heart I just love it April 2015 I use Navigon since 2010 I use Navigon North America and Navigon Europe                 Best navigation application ever
here maps gives a good route no matter what i try navigon refuses to give the same route the blockers to remove roads from use stops after the third one and the route goes back to the original unwanted one 60 wasted until the logic is fixed     fails to give good alternate routes
Garmon has owned Navigon for at least a few years now and has used Navigons technology in Garmin GPSs for autos Yet Garmin puts little back into Navigon I asked long ago to add directional arrows in the POIs for gas stations just like Garmins auto GPSs Right now I know how close a gas station is to me but dont have a clue if its behind me or ahead of me Rather important when traveling at 70 mph on the freeway        Still no Direction
App immediately crashes upon launch Tried on 3 different devices all different iOS version Ive tried restarting my device and hardrestarting my device No luck     Dont Update
I can not get the voice directions to work I want to get a refund as I just spent 50 on this application I would like refund I bought this application because I like my Garmin device the application seems great but no voice renders it unusable     What a piece of crap
Sigh Navigon is still directionally challenged Seattle is always west whether going north or south on I405 Voice prompts are correct when going north but tell you to head east to Seattle when going south on I405 Been reporting this for almost 2 years and still not fixed Sigh Unfortunately Navigon is still navigationally challenged when it comes to audio directions mixing up the north east south and west cardinal directions They got them partially fixed two version ago and was hoping they would fix the rest of the voice direction over the last two releases but alas that is not the case How can a navigation company not get this right and not be willing to fix a critical bug link this Guess Ill continue using Google and Apple maps for now        Navigon still needs navigation training
After last update Please fix I paid for this feature     Panorama 3D View wont download
Nokia Here Maps app and service is free Like NavigonGarmin it allows for map downloads so it can be used offline NavigonGarmin are both obsolete and only in still in business because people are ignorant of the quality and cost of Nokias Here Maps If you dont need to download the maps for offline use Google maps is best and even Apple maps is better than GarminNavigon     Better free downloadable maps elsewhere
Ive used Navigon since way before Google Maps and Apple Maps provided builtin alternatives and I really like the look However searching for destinations was always clunky and hit or miss since it is designed to mimic the clunky interface of a dedicated GPS device instead of taking advantage of the fact that its on a smart phone Why should we need to enter the state on one screen the city on another etc and all in that order However since the Google search was removed now there is apparently NO way to search for some arbitrary location that the app doesnt deem local to you You cant just type Hilton Memphis and have it consult the internet and show you options Most of the time I want to launch my map and say walker minneapolis or asian market omaha or whatever I know Navigon is useless for that so I just go by default to the other apps now The app only has this kind of functionality for gas stations and parking which is fine but not my preferred destinations I suppose its good if youre the kind of person who mainly navigates to contacts and everything is already fully filled out in your contacts including for businesses I guess The latest update is gorgeous new maps lots of enhancements It still doesnt address a few of my pet peeves no spoken recalculating message apparently no memory of previously selected routes but the main problem is that whereas previous versions were sluggish but bearable on my iPhone 3G the new version is really just too slow to be usable Sometimes takes 10 minutes to load and frequent unresponsive lockups stuttering or missing speech its just not something you can use to navigate any more New features like info parkingweather when you pull up a destination are torture on the 3G because it locks the phone up doing stuff you dont necessarily need and takes forever to get past Sadly our cheapo dedicated Garmin unit is coming back into the car for now since weve given up trying to use such an unresponsive interface        Lovely to look at but cripplingly useless search is making it irrelevant
Seems to run home to mama when you tell it you accept changes to update the maps Just hangs there as the device is plugged in and wifi is available        Downloading updated Maps
Save you money this app is getting worse with each iteration Google Maps free allows you to save maps for offline use This app crashes is impossible to update and the interface is awful     Garbage before garbage now
Why do I need to provide access to my address book for using Glimpse Its okay for a free app to collect data but not if I am paying 50 for an app        Not Happy
It was never great too complicated to enter an address but since the last update it crashes immediately after being launched on an iPhone 5     Broken with the latest update
