I have been using Navigon since its inception. Now Garmin owns this company and they have been continuing to update it with new features. Its actually more popular than their own Garmin app.
Pros
- Great offline maps, download only the province/state you need.
- Navigation works very well, easy to understand
- New search bar works well
- Optional routes are shown if available
- Reliable, does not crash
Cons
- Does not replace Google Maps or Apple Maps
- New "Acoustic bend warning" is extremely annoying, turn this off in Sounds.
- While driving on the highway express lane in Toronto it will alert you to stay there every exit to the collectors. I have to turn off announcements for this area.
- Traffic data is not as easy to understand as Google/Apple maps.
- Map updates are no longer free. Although they do seem to release an update every couple of years.
I always use this app when driving up north or in the U.S., otherwise I choose Google/Apple Maps. I have a large data plan and I find Google/Apple quicker for everyday usage.
