★★★★★Please revert back to the old Mapquest🇺🇸 US

This is awful and is now just a google map clone. User interface is cartoonish and not intuitive. Old features are lost to me. Trip planning is non existent. Ease of changing routes before starting is gone. Popups have taken over.

HC/JG· 2026-05-26
★★★★Bring back the free version🇺🇸 US

The new version is awful. It forces you to pay a subscription to get rid of all the annoying pop up ads. I greatly prefer the old, FREE version. It was accurate and easy to use. I don’t need to play games, I just want to get to unfamiliar locations.

★★★★★Headed in the Right Direction🇺🇸 US

I could see this app becoming the next WAZE, of course one that isn’t Google. However, it’s in the early stages still and needs some more polish and features. I even wouldn’t mind paying the extra to remove the ads and support the product if it provided a few more modern features and fixed the issue of the traversed line not disappearing during navigation on CarPlay. I’m really excited for this app, but it’s needs more features to keep people from giving up and resorting to Google Maps. (By more features, I don’t mean an AI chatbot or AI bloat in general). Great job Map Quest! Please keep going!

★★★★Gulf of Mexico!😃🇺🇸 US

As the title implies, I went looking for a sensible navigation app that used the proper name for things like the Gulf of Mexico and found that MapQuest was still around and they hadn't lost their mind. I was so happy that I signed up for the paid version. Haven't needed it just yet, but tested it and can say that the new voice is a big improvement as is CarPlay integration. Without the latter, switching to MapQuest wouldn't have been possible. I'd give it 5 stars if you could download maps for offline use. EV range and charging would also be great. A good nav alternative that hasn't gone insane! Thanks, MapQuest!

★★★★Mapquest is back? With ads🇺🇸 US

Decided to see what it was all about. Always looking for an improved gps. Completed the few steps to add my home address and see how the ui looks and feels. Not bad. Them stopped the route and immediately was hit with two ads that had to be closed out of before I could proceed.. way to totally drop the ball. Good riddance to Mapquest, and still irrelevant.

★★★★Favorite list🇺🇸 US

Your changes suck just bring back the favorite list so I can see the whole list with jumping through your stupid hoops having to sign in!!!!!

★★★★★MapQuest is Back and Better Than Ever!🇺🇸 US

I’ve been blown away by how much MapQuest has improved recently! The graphics are crisp, modern, and genuinely impressive. The navigation is smooth and intuitive—it gets me where I need to go without a hitch. Definitely a top-tier choice for getting around!

★★★★★Drops The Route🇺🇸 US

After I have set a destination and directed MapQuest to begin the drive, after the first turn, MapQuest drops the entire drive and switches to a picture of a clock. My other three map services (Waze, Apple, and Google) operate normally.
