[QUOTE=Lamonster;238412]My buddy has been using this app for a while and he says it's the best GPS app out there for the iphone. I couldn't bring myself to buy it at $80 bucks but you can get the North America that includes Canada for $40 bucks right now. It has text to speech, will run in landscape mode and will use Google to look up locations. So far I really like it. Just saying
Do you use it on your bike?
My iPhone connects to my helmet by bluetooth and I can answer and make calls handsfree. Would the app supply voice info over Bluetooth. Seems like I should be able to answer that myself but was wondering...

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. Then when you criticize them, you are a mile away and have their shoes.

I will give it a try. My old Tom Tom works fine but does not have bluetooth. Like I said, it is old and when new it cost a lot more than $40.
I will probably need it to find your house....

Phillipbj, do you have a bluetooth helmet or do you use something to get bluetooth in your helmet. I use my iphone when riding and have a GPS app that I really like and I too am able to make calls, answer calls, listen to tunes and still get voice directions from the GPS, but I have earbuds running from my helmet to my iphone. Wondering if there are some inexpensive alternatives.
With Christ all things are possible, so live life with no fears and no worries.

just bought it, hopefully it will be the first map program that I have got that is better than a regular map. Drives me nuts people just follow tom toms and have no damn idea where they are.

well from where I work to where I live it tells you to go east on 15th st instead of west and puts you in the wrong spot, it has all the things I would want in a gps tom tom thing but the one thing it is lacking is real directions.
-
I use MotionX GPS Drive. It works really well, traffic updates etc. and I can play my music while still getting GPs directions (pauses the IPOD and then starts it again when the voice over is done.) If I remember right, it's cheaper as well. Anyway, my .02, been pretty happy with it.

On my Sturgis trip the 'other' leader had a droid for GPS use and it SUCKED. For one thing it cannot work unless you have a cell signal.
If the iphone requires a cell signal then it would make for a terrible GPS--- I barely had signal most of my trip--- where the Verizon guys did.
I'm beyond fed up with AT&T as the service for my iphone. I don't know how they can legally even cell these devices to be used for making actual phone calls....
Other problem I see with a phone app is trying to press buttons during riding---
For $40 I guess it's not that much of a risk-- but I wouldn't think of it as your main GPS for a bike----
Go with the Garmin Zumo--- never led us astray.
Spyder #1 - 2008 GS SM5 Premier Edition #1977. RIP after 80,000 miles.
Spyder #2 - 2012 RT SM5. Traded in after 24,000 miles.
Spyder #3 - 2015 F3 SM6. Put 13,000 miles on and sold it.
Spyder #4 - 2017 F3 SM6. Too good of a deal to pass up!

I have a Nolan N103 helmet and the Nolan ncom Bluetooth kit. It fits into a dedicated recess in the helmet perfectly. It paired with my iPhone, no problem.
Expense is subjective, but I have about $550 in mine, which is dang expensive to me. But it has worked great so far.
One thing, I do not use my phone for tunes. I have an iPod connected by cable to my helmet. It is a iPod shuffle and I clip it onto my shirt or put it into my pocket. Music stops when I get a call. I hope the same thing happens when I get voice from the Navigon app. I haven’t checked that yet. Been raining in south GA.. Yea!
