Well, it seems to me that every other version of tis app, they broke more than 
they fixed. When I first got my iPhone in 2011, I used Navigon to go all over 
the place, but when I ended up hopelessly lost and walked about 4 miles out of 
my way, I took the app completely out of the phone and was certainly happy when 
the Seeing Eye gPS arrived on the scene last year.
I basically have dispensed with using any of those sightie gps's.
Happy 4th of July to those of you in the U. S. and all your conventioneers, 
Have a g. T. and safe travels to you all.
