When you zoom on a location it bumps it to different states I navigated it back numerouse times it done the same crap.plus it crashed 7 times on me not worth the headache this app is unreliable. I wouldnt pay for the upgrade because the free version isnt reliable. So why pay and. Take the risk if it does the same thing on the payed version thanks but no thanks uninstalling this app is a joke.....
