So, feeling like you want to travel around Korea, and not knowing where to go and navigate it?? No problem-o!!! Just use this app. Granted, you’ll need to grasp Hangul to type in you location, but the learning curve for using this app is short after you’ve handled the just-as-short Hangul learning curve. Seoul’s busy subway and bus system? this app is your best travel buddy! Wanna go to a different city, but don’t the streets well enough? this app will help! These features saved me: • compass arrow showing where you are. • compass direction and cone of vision showing you which direction you are pointing toward. • tapping on the alerts option to ding when your bus is arriving. • long distances from your location tell you which train to take, where to get off, and which bus or taxi to take.

I had no issues utilizing this app in Korea. I was able to navigate my way in Seoul and Busan by using this app. Being able to read and type Korean is a plus, as all of the navigation is in Korean. My friends, however, were also able to use this app without knowing the language by tracking their locations and using the maps provided. Overall, great app for traveling through Korea!

Works very well. Used it in the countryside. It tells you when to slow down for traffic light and speed cameras
