Don’t download it, not friendly use and a lot of tracking term and condition but helpless.

The app has been really useful for us on our most recent holiday to South Korea - but that’s only because my wife is Korean. Even though setting the app to English, most of it stays in Korean, and so it is not easy to use for myself. As for directions they have been accurate and very useful. As with all GPS-based applications chews through the battery, so definitely need an external battery back of some description. A bit of a shame about the lack of a true English version because it has been very good to get around various cities and provinces.

Three very real problems 1. Very difficult to search an address. When I want to go to a business and get the address either in English or Hangul. This app fails to find the address. I have tried entering in various ways from street number to town and country town street and the searches do not work. 2. Any route directions are in Hangul which is useless for an English speaker. 3. Turn by turn direction are impractical. This app is very very resource hungry. My iPhone battery usually lasts 2 days. Naver turn by turn churns through battery in less that two hours. Also when you leave the screen for other app such as messages you lose the route directions so you have to reenter the route.

You search for spots in English but all the results will be written in korean. Also all review, buttons, directions etc will be in Korean, so not very useful… I would stick with google maps, even if you have to search for directions yourself, way more convenient

Just spent 9 days as a tourist in Seoul and Naver maps allowed my partner and I to locate and navigate to everything we wanted to see. I tried another app and although useful did not seem to have all the same features. Very happy to recommend this product to others.

Works a treat and has fully details maps of where to go and where the exits lead you to. It even has detail maps of the underground malls!

i download and install the app in preparation to go to seoul. want me to sign up to mark places, ok no problem. upon arrival i launch the app, they have banned me. travelers use rome2rio app instead
