Lack of Android Auto/CarPlay Integration

Does not support Android Auto

It will not show you visually the route turn by turn on CarPlay on your bike.

Navigation and Screen Issues

It doesn't make my screen stay on, so my phone locks every X minutes

The navigation often hang up if you have to change an alternate route

App Stability and Crashes

Now I can't even login in. it immediately says something about age verification and crashes.

Minimum once a trip the app crashes… so you need to stop to reload everything.
