Attached: 1 image Bueno, pues necesito alternativas a Google maps, porque acabo de decidir hace unos segundos dejar de usarlo después de que me saliera un trayecto con un desvío completamente innecesario que mete dos minutos más porque pasa cerca de una gasolinera que ha patrocinado ese trayecto

Original toot in Spanish says: “OK, so I need some alternatives to Google Maps, because I just decided seconds ago to stop using it after I got proposed a trip with a completely unnecessary detour which adds two extra minutes just because it pass by a gas station that sponsors this trip.”

    last time I tried to use it on a 700km trip it would not even find the path, it would just calculate seemingly forever.

      You need to download the maps in order to make it work. The default maps it comes with kinda suck. It’s not intuitive but I was able to go from California to Wyoming that way.

        I did have all the maps downloaded. I split the trip into three ~250 km sections and it routed each one separately just fine.

        Yeah I also downloaded the U.S map and was pretty good navigating around Utah and Nevada. They had information on the locations and everything. It didn’t have any traffic information like Google maps but it works perfectly fine.
