Bike Citizens Cycling App GPS users say on Google Play
Works well, offline routing, voice navigation and unlock-free visual navigation are especially appreciated. Road bike routing was recently updated to be much better! Only things missing are a night mode and a Spotify widget.
Unable to use navigation or download offline maps in Helsinki area since the launch of the new version. Used to work great, now usable only for tracking routes. Clean install doesn't help. Update 10.3.21: The problem seems to be with the map data since after some further investigation it seems that the navigation stops working anywhere close to or north from latitude 60°N, which applies to almost all of Finland. Update 29.3.21: Map downloads and navigation still broken in version 8.2.1
I can use it fairly well as a route planner, but it didn't find some of the addresses I tried and once it took me to a completely different neighborhood with only the street name maching my search string. The voice navigation is also quite useful. The on-screen navigation is closing in too much, can't use it to look for my next turn beforehand. Also, the smart tracking stopped working sometime in the end of November. The notification is there, but it hasn't record a single new track for weeks.
I have bought the lifetime whole world map before the app changed payment planning. Got 1 year premium for it which felt like a pretty big disappointment, but I also haven't checked my emails regularly to see whether they had a warning before or not. Then next disappointment came when I got a new phone: transitioned from a Honor to a Samsung and the app won't even open anymore. Tried clearing cache, restarting, reinstalling, but it crashes every single time. Too bad, I used to like this app.
After the overhaul, my purchase of all maps worldwide was changed to a one year premium membership, whereby I will lose the right to download any map after the membership has expired. Contacting the service team only led to the statement that they think one year premium membership would be a reasonable exchange for my purchase. Unfortunately this makes the once great service almost useless for me and it is sad to experience such a bad customer service.
