From some reviews I have read this app is kind of a memory hog compared to Navigon. May not run so smooth on a 3G. I have read that it can use up to 90mb while running. Can someone confirm this?
I bought this and really wish I wouldn't have wasted my money on it. It takes over twice the amount of time to open on my 3GS as either TomTom or Navigon, both of which I also have. It also lags terribly. You'll be at the street you're supposed to turn at and it thinks you're a few blocks behind. Rerouting also takes longer than the others by a considerable amount.
This may work fine if you're using it to find exits to turn on while on the highway, but I would not recommend it for city driving. I use the GPS on my phone for my job (UPS) every day and this is the last GPS app I would recommend using if you're in the city. I'd save my money and go for Navigon or TomTom and in doing so save yourself a lot of frustration, as well.
I have Magellan and Navigon. I am not seeing any lag on my 3gs nor does opening the app seem any different from Navigon. Not sure what's up on your iPhone. Magellan has tons of promise in my opinion. Navigon is still my favorite. But not by much.
the graphics look like crap IMO
Is there ny way to get the $20 deal extended. I just found out about it and am extremely interested! However, I hate finding out about a deal after the fact that I could have used.
Hello Maggie,
I am new here but have been lurking for a while. Are their any plans to tie in Google live search for POI info as Navigon has done?
Looks like version 1.10 is available. Apparently it's a big update. I had 3.1 gigs available and it told me I had to delete some photos or whatever to free up more space. Gonna have to load this badboy up through the computer as I can see this taking forever over wifi through the iphone.
Anyone update it yet? Description says bigger back button, and direct access to map. YES!!! that was getting quite annoying. Now it we could get live traffic (and not have to pay for it like navigon) that would be sweet.
hey Maggie , first i wanna say that i love your name !! two , i must say that i love my Magellan app . third , i am so obssessed right now by the upcoming premium car kit and cradle for the Iphone !! . now ,let's get down to business : i mean ,i dont know about you guys but am going to have some fun with the competion and the Goodies ,yeahaa...
ALOHA Maggie-gellan , hehe ...
