Customer Reviews

Bike there (5 stars)
This is a great app. The maps are great and easy to plan a route from wherever to your destination. Every back road and obscure lanes that meander through residential neighborhoods show how to go with a minimum of traffic. That is a big deal for us cyclist in Suffolk County NY that has the highest bicycle-vehicle fatality rate in New York State.

Really helpful free app (5 stars)
I haven't bought any of the upgrades so I can't speak for those, but as the free app I find it so helpful! On my iPhone I can now get bike directions from google, save them to my phone, and load them when I am using them. I used it multiple times today when I was in a new area. I agree with the earlier reviewer that it is important to read the help section.

Perfect... Almost (4 stars)
This app is great for planning routes from point A to point B but there are a few things that would make it better. (most of these are nitpicking, it really is one of the best route planning apps available. The Austin add-on is mostly accurate as well.)

- a legend for the various lane types. It's hard to tell which are which and there's no way to find out which colors are which without switching them on and off.
