Thank you, I've been meaning to look for a Waze replacement.
I'll be sure to try this out on my drive tomorrow.
- I’m using it for years and I’m very happy with it.
- Happy to help. It's not as polished as Waze, but it gets the job done. Maybe more users will improve it still.
  
  I'm checking it out a bit, it seems to be quite nice.
  One thing I noticed however, is that the lane-suggestions for roundabouts are simply wrong.
  It seems to be an oddly common issue with alternative nagivation apps.. Sygic had this issue as well.
  
  That might be an issue with the source data, ie OpenStreetMap.
