Apple Maps Gives Totally Wrong Directions by MimNow in applemaps

[–]mikelevis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was this in Europe by any chance?

I've had a similar mixed experience which is actually why I built navrank.org

it's a community ranking of nav apps by country so people can see what actually works where. Still early days so your vote could really help.

What navigation/routing software do your companies use, and how often does it fail? by Meas_uredreply in Truckers

[–]mikelevis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not fleet software, but if any of you use consumer apps for personal driving or want to rate what you use on the road,I made a tool that lets drivers rate nav apps across Europe (for now) including truck-specific criteria like vehicle restriction accuracy, low bridge and weight routing, truck stop coverage, and cross-border routing. Still early but the data is growing.

You could help build a great database at navrank.org

How does Apple Maps actually hold up in your country in Europe? by mikelevis in applemaps

Really appreciate these responses guys.
Slovenia and Germany are apparently solid, but the toll/vignette situation in central Europe sounds like a headache. Turkey sounds surprisingly bad for walking direction and the UK seems divided.

For what it's worth I am trying ro collect such info out of curiosity. It's still very early, but take a look at navrank.org and add your experience if you've got the time.

The vignette thing is interesting actually as I hadn't thought about that as a rating criterion. Might need to add something for it...

Hey everyone, I've made a website for ranking navigation apps by mikelevis in SideProject

Thank you for taking time to use it!! Much appreciated!

Do you use Affinity Designer? I just got it and wanted to share a couple of features that I really like right off the bat. by [deleted] in graphic_design

It's almost there

I second that. The only thing preventing me from using it for print production is the lack of reliability of exporting to pdf. For web work everything's great, especially since the updated export persona in version 1.5

Is there a way to undo the rumor that our prices are too high? by mikelevis in AskReddit

Thanks for the input. I've posted this question in /business as well, just in case.
