An intriguing idea, but they seem a little vague about where they're actually getting their traffic data from, just a "third party". For crowd-sourced traffic data to be at all useful it needs to be coming from software that a lot of drivers happen to have on their phones, so I wouldn't be surprised if Google or Apple aren't to be found somewhere in the pipeline.
I’m from the US and I looked on the iOS App Store. It says that it is not available in my region.
@vittoria666 That's surprising since it does report feature availability in the USA and Canada. It doesn't seem to have a regional restriction on Google Play so maybe there's a delay on Apple's side.
I hope American iOS users won't have to wait until the EU forces Apple to allow sideloading.
I would say just buy TomTom Go, only 20 euros a year and no Google BS. Or if you really don't want to pay use Amigo, it's also from TomTom with the same life traffic etc.
Not available in Canada
Gonna give it a shot, but I'm sure i already tried some time ago. So desperate to get away from Google Maps.
