Allowing GPS to run in the background for extended periods can lead to a significant reduction in battery life.

Pros and cons of NAVIGON British Isles app for iPhone and iPad

NAVIGON British Isles app good for

I bought this application for a short trip to London, UK as well as the Inverness area of Scotland. The ap fired up fast and calculated good, accurate routes. It was especially helpful with traffic circles, as it told you the exit to take. I also liked that it indicated the speed limit for the road you were taking, especially since they seem to expect you to know speed limits over there. You can also save addresses in favourites for later use. I did use it to direct us to petrol stations, although one of them was closed (boarded up). Initially I was a little worried as I had used the Tom Tom ap in Canada, and was upset with its gps coverage. No problem with the Navigon (I used both with the Magellan car kit). It locked on quickly and NEVER lost gps coverage. If you did take a wrong turn, it quickly recalculated an alternate route. I would definitely recommend this ap!
On my first trip to the UK, this app repeatedly provided PERFECT guidance, not only around London, but in impossibly remote, and narrow little roads in the Cotswolds. It took me, without fail, door to door, in places I would not have expected to be on ANY map. I will say that it was not helpful on the iPhone 3GS, but was flawless on the iPad. Well worth the price.

Some bad moments

I bought this app in desperation because I was lost on vacation in the UK for about $80. It didnt work when it was needed, nor did it ever work since. I resorted to asking strangers for directions. Absolute piece of rubbish. I would not try to use it even if it was free. I asked Apple for a refund and they didnt budge. Terrible app, even worst customer service. PLZ DO NOT BUY THIS APP. I wish it was possible to give it 0/5 stars.
Does not work at all. Picks up current position, then tells me GPS is not sufficient, and resorts to "Simulation Mode". This is with iPhone 4.0 and 4.1. Have soft and hard reset iPhone. I have US version- works fine. This is horrible - I purchased this (even at the $32 discount) for a trip to Scotland, but it is completely wasted money as I cannot get the thing to perform any navigation at all, and my trip is over before Navigon has responded to my problems. For this money, I expect a working app.
