Pros and cons of PAPAGO! Philippines (PRO) app for iPhone and iPad

PAPAGO! Philippines (PRO) app good for

Given that these are early days for this program and there are sure to be some if not many updates, I can see that this will be very popular. It seems to work really well with the iPhone GPS and is very clear when it comes to junctions about the way to go. I founfd the volume a little low, but that will not be a problem with a hands-free kit. Cant wait to see this in 3D and with landmark pictures. What great value. i used this map before on a Nokia N95, but this is much better.
I like it... And it works... Better buy than waste your money in buying expenssive gps gadgets....
Very good than the previous version. One thing i need to ask is make some additional mapping for MRT and LRT route. I hope we add it in the next version. Thumbs up!

Some bad moments

Program exits every time I launch it. Please fix your bug. I think it does not work with the new os4 system.
The latest update made the app very buggy in ios 4.1 on an iPhone 4. The map wont even follow the turn/rotation it has to make everytime the car needs to make a left or right turn. Also noticed that the car position marker (arrow) has been dragging out of place very often. Im furious coz it wasnt like this on M6. Please fix this asap!
Map does not turn. When shall we have the bug fixing release? A
Papago m8 worked fine until the latest update now it crashes all the time! Dont fix something that aint broken!!
If i can give 0 stars i would! For the price, i thought it would compare to Navigon or Tomtom... The interface is very weak... It crashes... Dont even second guess yourselves to buy it or not... Its the crappiest navigation app ive ever bought!
It was working well before but after the upgrade of iOS then nothings moving at all.
