This KILLS Google Navigation hands down! Multiple routes are now easy, I love it! So many features, best interface, easy to use. Best app ever. Thanks

Useful and convientent app. I especially like the pop up tab with hotels, restaurants, shopping etc. Don't like the lag time but not sure if it's my network, the phone of GPS. Samsung Captivate.

Love the fact it has voice navigation and avoid toll options as oppose to Google maps. Zoom level wit bigger font signs Google has on them.

Great app even in beta. Not as smooth as google but has much more useful features. Mapquest ALWAYS has the latest maps. Dont find out the hard way.

GREAT app!! It's an app I'd expect to come standard with a smart phone. Great for when you move to a new city! I would recommend to everyone!

Its a good app. It locks on faster than Google maps. My only gripe about the app is it doesn't continue running in the background. If i get a call or press home MY DIRECTIONS ARE LOST AND I HAVE TO START OVER!! Not the safest thing to do when trying to drive. fix that and its a winner!

Loads faster, doesn't hang like GM, more intuitive. Wish the fonts were bigger. No problem with wifi like others, have disabled "use wifi" in android.

It's my backup for locations that Google maps "can't understand". Lightweight, so I don't mind having both. Don't like that it turns on wi-fi.

Seems to locate faster than other map apps though searching POI "feels" slow. Colors in map mode are washed out on my Atrix...needs more contrast and saturation. Unusable when phone is horizontal; directions take up way too much real estate. A 3D/tilt view would help.

This is an awesome app for maps and directions. Built-in navigation is convenient but it's beta, so not up to in-car quality yet. The OSM feature is awesome. I'm making edits to OSM maps and seeing the changes in the app within minutes! Too cool...
