It wasnt bad. Now it doesnt work.

It doesnt work anymore. I used it for almost a few years. The loading screen is all I get and then it exits.
Gogo had good graphics and decent GPS accuracy. Finding locations by train station, google maps, address or phone number was decent enough.

However, during the few years I used gogo I had several complaints:
1. Often the suggested routes are completely awkward and inefficient. "as the crow flies" pretty much sums it up. (try from Toki city in Gifu to kozouji in Aichi. The roads arent wide enough for two lanes and there are CLEARLY easier, safer and faster routes)
2. Sometimes Im driving under a highway and suddenly out of nowhere Gogo thinks Im on the highway above... Or vice versa. This is absolutely the worst thing that can happen while you are on the expressway.
3. When I choose "faster time" for my route options it often tells me to transfer between 4 different highways. (for example from Toki-city, Gifu to Nagashima, Mie) I have to pay a separate toll for each highway! Google maps instead suggests I do it using one highway. Gogo should have a "fast + cheap" option or it should at least assume nobody wants to pay several different tolls to various private highway companies. Its almost twice as expensive that way! Obviously 2500 yen is more important than saving 5 minutes.
4. Renaming and finding my previously saved "favorites" is difficult. There should be more options for organizing saved destinations. When I save a new "favorite" it doesnt give me the option to name it right away. I have to search for the "New Favorite" and rename it afterwards. This can be confusing if many "New Favorites" have been saved without being renamed.
5. Shouldnt the app close or stop using so much battery once youve reached your destination? If you forget to close the app properly and leave it running in the background your battery dies in a few hours.
6. Why doesnt it tell me the toll prices?

Thanks for a few good times and many bad times gogo. I stuck with you because you were expensive but luckily iOS 6 will have turn by turn navigation this fall!
Did any of the developers actually use this?
