It was taking about 2 seconds to launch the app. So, I cleared the app data & downloaded it again on phone memory. Now it is much faster to load. But still I can't stand the UI & navigation voice. So ugly. Thanks to you, I got the 'Magic Earth', I liked it & will use it on my next trip.

Crowd sourced, a lot of the time I find it better than Google and far better than here wego. I have to use hwg occasionally because unfortunately it is the map fired in my car.

I used to use it all the time but I couldn't stand how "laggy" the map is and how ugly it is. I also didn't like how icons would show up on the street and not in their proper location.
It is still a great app for navigation but I much prefer Magic Earth as an offline GPS with online features.

It looks really nice as a fullscreen & offline app. Its a really nice alternative to Google Maps & ugly looking 'Here' map.

Google would be better fixing the inaccuracies in their POIs. I'm fed up moving the ones for real businesses to their correct locations, and marking rubbish ones (like directors of companies home addresses as if that was the company!) as never existed.

Meanwhile they still can't get intersections and searching by street number right.

I do like Google Maps but I love Magic Earth. There's something about navigating with it, the way the maps look, that makes it so easy to know when to turn or not. It's super clear and well done.
I use both the above.
