I really love using this app especially when I want to take my 2017 Bimmer M6 Convertible on road trips. I love finding new roads that are fun to drive that I've never been on. I really enjoy cruising on a road with mounts and hills. I also love roads that wines alongside of a canyon as I zoom down with my top down and the air blwing through my hair

K70%
by K####:

Awesome app, even though the ui looks dated, the route information is pretty accurate and helpful. Loving the fact that it works in almost any place and country

P70%
by P####:

It just loads and does nothing.

K70%
by K####:

The direct port from iOS to Android causes interacting with the app to be clumsy at times, not to mention it just looks cheap. I was also unable to delete individual waypoints, causing me to have to clear the entire trip upon the app calculating an improper route. Also, the limit of 23 waypoints is just dumb. There are some highly technical roads that require several waypoints so the app doesn't calculate some crazy route. It's also dumb that you have to split routes because of this. Try again, BMW...

maps do not load and new point system needs explaining

This looks like a great app for drivers wanting to plan a fun route, but you can't do that when the app resets whenever you try to view one of your saved roads...

This app has so much potential, but it can help but crash and reset constantly. Will five star once this issue has been fixed.

Not allowing me to create a username. Says no network connection available. I tried on wifi and 4g. Running on galaxy nexus Android 4.0.3. Please fix

Needs to interact with Google maps.... great idea but needs improvement .... chat with local drives or forums...

E70%
by E####:

Bit clunky UI at times, but a nice idea. Car models sold outside the US (such as most of the 1 series) missing. Most features depend on facebook or having bought a BMW in the US. Uninstalling...

Unable to create an account, when registering receive a Network unavailable error.

A70%
by A####:

Great idea and will get better but force closes a lot right now...loses info on stretches...needs to integrate with navigation.

by D####:

Text screws up everytime I input a new road, and only lets me select "touring". Would be nice if i could delete the screwups but no option.

Works great now ...

Good idea, buggy beta currently. Once their servers are up to speed and the kinks are worked out this might be a great app!

S70%
by S####:

Keep reminding me an active network is required, while my LTE signal is super strong. Seems it can't use 4g, has to use 3g. What a lovely idea.

F70%
by F####:

Exactly what i needed. Adding roads can be slow. Faster interface will get 5 stars. Good work

F70%
by F####:

Force closes a lot, a bit laggy. Comments not available and not possible to use the same user on multiple phones.

D70%
by D####:

Quite useful for an enthusiastic driver of a BMW or not. Recommended for sleek and streamlined interface and ergonomy.

D70%
by D####:

I really like the app, but it has some bugs...I'm looking forward to their next updated. I'm getting a msg at every click "network connection is required to work properly" when on 3G & LTE...doesn't occur on wifi. It also crashes occasionally. HTC Thunderbolt.

Great concept. Hugely annoying "network connection" issues on strong 4G connection. LG Revolution .

Looks nice, love the idea but very clunky. Intro screenshots shouldn't be from iPhone... I'll keep it installed with auto update, however...

Y70%
by Y####:

After switching to Galaxy Nexus, the app stopped working, with the 'Network unavailable error. I reported the problem to support and it's been resolved. Use it to plan and share trips.
