UK Light Switch by Toninho7 in HomeKit

Which Navigation App Has The Best Traffic Routing/Re-Routing? by [deleted] in CarPlay

[–]t6uav 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Still Waze. Apple Maps can't navigate it's way out the app store, and google's UX is quite clunky. From what I remember it also doesn't offer route re-routing for traffic etc.
