No, This is do to the lack of getting turn by turn directions. Its very good though. Its like a more accurate Sendero look around in my opinion. There are a few small changes I'd like to see in this app though. The biggest one is the app not take up the entire screen. I miss my status bar to check my battery, time, etc.
