MetroView GPS Navigation

Can’t find a better app especially at that price but some minor issues. (1) At random times for no apparent reason the voice announces “trip error” and the route you’re navigating disappears from the screen. (2) Changes to roads and speed limits take a long time to appear on map updates. Eg. a new housing subdivision with new streets still not showing up after more than a year despite a number of updates. (3) Sometimes directs you to minor gravel roads when more convenient main roads are available

I have had MetroView for about 15 years. It’s been great. I specially if you are travelling and have no internet reception on your phone. It’s great to have an app developed in Australia for Australian roads. I use it on Apple CarPlay and its responses are really good. I would recommend to everyone with an iPhone.

Love your app but the only thing I have a issue with is there are no options for alternative routes as apple maps have, would to have this option in your app

The best offline GPS hands down. This has come in handy so many times with the camera notifications as well and regular map updates.

I’ve been using this app for a little over two months now, and I must say when I first opened it I thought the interface was going to be a bit clunky! But, after the first week its turned out to be quite intuitive and very handy. It’s now my goto app for street navigation. Some of the most useful functions are the advanced voice notifications for the “Speed Zone Changes”, especially school zones. You also have the ability to tap the speed sign in the bottom left corner of the screen, to change your map view to display your current speed in large digital format. When you exceed the speed limit the numerals change from white to red. The map sizing is also intuitive. As you speed up the map zooms out, showing more roads, and as you slow down the map automatically zooms in. Very logical and helpful. There is only one issue I have with the app which is probably only relevant to use on an iPad. I have a Gen9 iPad which I use in landscape format. Some may say an iPad is way to big, but it works amazingly well, especially when connected simultaneously as the monitor to a rear view camera. To do this, the navigation app needs the ability to do “Split Screen View” allowing two apps to run side by side simultaneously. Unfortunately Metroview doesn’t have this capability at present. I use a rear view camera when towing my boat or car trailer for improved safety and vision, especially when changing lanes. To do this, I have to revert back to using Google Maps or Apple Maps, which is a shame because “Metroview” ticks all the boxes except “ Split Screen View”. So to the app designers, can you please incorporate “ Split Screen View” to your next upgrade. It’s the only thing missing. I have only given 4 stars because as a subscription based app, I can only use it when not towing which is about 70% of usage. Very pleased with the app though.

Best gps I’ve ever used and I tried them all. This is simple to use clear notifications no silly gimmicks. It’s the best!!!!!

Thanks for the reply and yes I found it. One more thing I noticed and done everything to see if it fixes it but nope it’s a bug. It’s when I search with voice a address or anything else it says > No internet connection. Could you look into it please via CarPlay. I haven’t tried on my iPhone but might be the same.

Thanks for this app. And for your privacy policy Suggestion s - please provide option to inactivate the automatic start navigation feature. Many times i first want to see the location of a poi without navigating to it - the voice could be improved - option to remove the safety sounds would be good Keep it up! Thanks

Reduced speed limit early warning brand new feature is really helpful. Was a big surprise though. Nice Christmas gift team.

This is the best app with expert support and free updates. You won’t find a better support and maintained application
