The final update of the year! We tweaked the UI and made some more adjustments to ensure the app runs even smoother.
We updated everything in need of updating and fixed everything in need of fixing. Nothing major, but still an improvement.
We fixed a few bugs and improved the app’s stability.

If you search for a place without an internet connection or a map of the area downloaded, the app won't show it. However, you'll get a prompt to download the map automatically as soon as you're online again. That will make sure you don't forget, and you'll definitely find what you need next time even if you're offline.
We fixed a few bugs, so the app is now more stable.
When you clear your search history, suggestions are now removed as well. We also fixed a few bugs and improved the app’s stability.
Good news for drivers: road events displayed next to each other now take up less space on the screen. That gives you a better view of the route.

We updated your profile page — open it to see your history of visited places as well as your uploaded photos, videos, and reviews.
The reviews themselves got a touch-up, too. We moved around the "Add photo or video" button so it's easier to add media. Also, whenever you're contributing a review, you'll see the photos and videos you made in the place you're reviewing so you don't have to endlessly scroll through your gallery to find them.

We added route building using bookmarked places. That can be helpful, for example, when you're planning on visiting a number of places in a single day. Just add places to lists for shopping, sightseeing, or walks. All you'll have to do is open the list you're looking for, tap the route button, and hit the road.
