MapQuest GPS Navigation & Maps

I upgraded my rating from 3 Stars to 4 Stars. The reason is that the navigations are improving. MapQuest used to be the absolute WORST navigational tool in the world, 🌎🌍 but apparently, someone is actually doing their job. I sincerely hope the trips continue to improve on the navigation. Thanks, and I hope this helps someone.

Waze is very good, but drops out unexpectedly. Google Maps keeps turning "Do not disturb" on. Lots of bells and whistles. MapQuest straight forward, intuitive, accurate. Speaks through my Bluetooth phone, not USB. Great! Unlimited "add stops". I can add a day's worth of stops and know when I'll get home for dinner. Waze can't do it.

Could you please add a save route feature? You are one of the only apps that allows more than 10 stops to be built into a route, but as far as I can see there is no way to name and save those stops as a route. This means that everything you want to re-run the route you have to manually re-select all the addresses and put them in the order you need. It be awesome if you could work on this feature, and please keep it free! Or at least a 1 time purchase instead of a pay $9.99 a month 🙄.

Looking for a viable alternative to the awful Google Maps, Mapquest lloked like it might be the winner, but just 5 min revealed it is unusable for me. When out in landscape mode, the app automatically shrinks the map to the right half of the screen with the full turn-by-turn directions on the left half. Unsafe to safely drive trying to squint at a half-sized map. Unfortunate. Fix this unnecessary feature and I'll try it again and revise my review.

Been using this app for almost 3 weeks now since Waze's connection issues remain unresolved. MapQuest app has started shutting down after turn-by-turn navigation is activated and user is driving to their destination. Today, 3/4/22, it closed mid-navigation 3 times. Each time the app had to be reopened and the destination address reentered. Very frustrating and distracting, especially while driving. I hope MapQuest is not being overloaded due to Waze's issues. 😮‍💨

On multiple routes, the map shows the entire route, making me think I had to upturn. It should only show the current route. When I hit my first stop it didn't erase and kept trying to reroute me to my first stop. There should be an ETA for the current route as well the entire route, and the font should be bigger for the ETA. I want to keep using this app as I'm tired of the alternative collecting my data. Please fix.

I love that you can choose no highways, no bike paths, etc. for driving your CAR. In that way, MapQuest is FAR superior to Google Maps directions. After dark and when the weather is bad, this allows you to take a much slower, safer, residential side street or back road route, without being forced onto a higher speed, population-culling (of both humans AND deer) highway.

Great alternative to gmaps. But feedback button suggests to open Bluetooth, etc? Add a layer to show favorites and all layers on the map at once. Also tapping the temperature button should open a pop-up of more info. Also add offline maps or import, enter coordinates as a destination, show layers as a list, differentiate the icons color based on miles, setting to show all labels of business names on the map, edit layer button menu, show weather alerts on long routes or map, more options.

The new google map update completely destroyed the usefullness of the app, so i downloaded several gps apps and this is by far the best one i have found. Simple and to the point. Why do so many developers think cluttering up an app with junk makes it better? If you're looking for a simple GPS app to find whatever it is you're looking for, traffic conditions, alt routes, etc., then MapQuest is what you're looking for.

I drove home from Cuyahoga Falls, OH to Leavittsburg, and the route was PERFECT. There were areas that were color coded yellow and red, along the way, which alerted me of areas where I needed to exercise extra caution and care, while driving along my route. I have always loved MapQuest. It was the FIRST, and all the rest have always fallen short of it, imo.

1) A simple task like finding the walking distance between two points ends up a usless and monumental project. I recommend that your software developers be introduced to the "use cases" technique to better understand how the app is used. 2) Avoid the bad habit of delegating to the user the tasks of fixing configuration and installation problems. 3) if you are being forced to provide user-help buttons, fire the human interface designers. No. The world does not rotate around their app.

Constant problems with this app. Am always afraid I'm going to see "Route failed" when I've no idea where I am. Managing favorite places, on which I rely heavily, is impossible. Can't figure out to edit them, can't sort their order at all, and half the time it takes me 5 minutes just to find how to add a new one. This could be a lot better.

Bad. Looking for app to plan trips. This app on a trip I make a lot there's 4 routes to use but the best route is a mix of 2 or 3 of the 4 so to change the direct route you have to add stops then you can't save it or use a fav the mixed route so I have to type in the multi segments and then to reverse the direction doesn't happen. I know both this app and Google Maps you could do all of the above so what the hell.

Hey mapquest, I have two cell phones and the voice guidance works on one but not the other. I have everything set properly. I went to your help section for this and it is basically useless. Would you care to comment on why this is happening. I like your app except for that. One cell phone has Android version 10 and the other cell phone has Android version 7.1 if that makes any difference.

I just installed this app because I heard how great it is, however, the very first thing I noticed is that it does NOT have voice command like Google maps does. When you are a delivery driver like I am, voice command is essential because I can't stop and pull over all the time just to type in my next stop. I am going to uninstall this app immediately. Wasn't worth my time.

when I very first downloaded this app several years ago, it was fantastic! However, over the past view updates, it has become increasingly unusable for me. It no longer hooks up to my Bluetooth , I don't have voice directions, it stops in the middle of the trip , it gives me wrong directions, it takes me in circles. I've deleted it and reloaded it, and it still doesn't work worth a s***. I love this app because it was way better than Google, now, I'm not so sure.

Google Maps get you lost! I love this app because it brings you right to your destination! It will reorient if you take a different way, and still, with high accuracy will always be with you. It is the only app that works in the remote area I live. Now if only UPS, FedEx, and other businesses used MapQuest, they would save a lot of time and energy! Highly recommend! ♡

This app is FAR superior to the buggy, clunky Google maps, which I had been using for over a decade. MapQuest makes it really easy to switch views, change options, add stops, and most importantly, see the map day or night without going blind. I also love the easily accessible filter tool that allows you to customize businesses you would like to see along your way. Google maps simply forces a barrage of irrelevant businesses, cluttering up the map. I did notice some lag in correcting the route.

Good application! Really needed it to come through! First, as you drive it didn't keep up well and you can actually pass the street before it calibrates to keep up. Second, after you hit the stop it has no feature to check off the stop and move to the next! You just have to keep moving but then the address bar on top is stuck at the previous turn signal. It was disappointing and very frustrating I have to say. Not ready yet for civilian use in my opinion.

Not as good as the website. Does not offer to rearrange stops to maximize time. Says can't calculate route when attempting to manually alter stops to save time. Wish there was an option to save routes. We are planning a cross country road trip to hit the national parks, I tried the website and really thought we had found our trip planner. Guess we will have to keep looking for a better app.
