Pros and cons of Traveling Companion app for iPhone and iPad

Traveling Companion app good for

So far it has been really accurate especially the nearest cross street

After leaving MSG with the dev crew I was suprised to receive a personal response so quickly. Looking forward to update. App does what it says.

Updated version works great! I will no longer wander lost thru life, now I will at least know the direction and speed. Better prepared for the crossroads ahead.

Works as described. Should use the magnometer in the 3gs for the compass. It would work faster.

I use this app all the time when Im driving or just walking around town. The perfect companion to a new 3GS!

Works much much better...plus it has a cool interface. I know I am not supposed to use it and drive but I was - and it is pretty darn accurate on my 3Gs. Buy it, what do you have to lose?!

Some bad moments

this does not work well at all. Intersection locator never showed anything.

I was hoping to find a compass that would work like a standard magnetic compass. This app needs you to be moving (Like in a car). Not useful for finding your way on a hike. The customer service guy got back to me right away when I emailed him about this. (I thought I wasnt working it correctly) He told me that it only works if you are moving in a vehicle. It does find the nearest intersection and gives you your location in longitude and latitude if thats what you need.

junk, do not waste your money, also seller is a jerk and very unhelpful

Im new to the iPhone, but if you Download an app, shouldnt it sort of work? This one doesnt!

Just got it. Turned it on. Will not show correct bearing and says Im going 80 mph. Im glad I only wasted $.99. It may work better for you, but not for my new 3G iPhone. Repeatedly turned it on and off and it will not update, it will not show changes, even when moved 180 degrees. Frustrating. It just doesnt work.

I tried to synch this application and it would not work with my iTouch. I will be more vigilant in the future, but, for now, it looks like 99 wasted cents.
