My experience has been quite different recently. Upon opening unav, I have a reasonable position in a couple of seconds, and seem to have an accurate GPS position within around 10 seconds. In most cases, the route is found in a couple of seconds. I've had it get stuck on searching for a route a few times, though most times this is when there is no network connection, something unav should probably detect and give some better feedback on. Last week, I actually used this alongside my friend who was using Google Maps on a Nexus 6P, and I was getting a faster and more reliable location detection (using unav on Nexus 4). The Nexus 6P also had a network connection, while my Nexus 4 was offline (my friend was roaming, I was not). So, overall, the location detection is brilliant in my experience over the last couple of months. Unav is also quite nice, but could still do with a few small improvements to improve it's reliability.
