A great foundation, but needs a little refinement. Works really well in its basic GPX map guide function, but in bright sunlight the screen is hard to see and read. Needs a higher contrast mode. Needs zoom. Needs the "my location" pointer to be larger and much bolder (black?) to be visible. Also there does not seem to be an exit / end button. My phone now thinks it is navigating with BikeGPX all the time even though I have not get a current route set. A bit weird.Still - it got us there and back

Good potential but some shortcomings. The good: simple and straight forward. 3D navigation view. Large speed display. The bad: Really thin, almost invisible, line indicating the route. Poor choice for the position cursor (small and "water" blue arrow). A few times I thought it was part of a lake or river. Does not indicate the true current distance (I do not follow exactly the loaded road). Cannot end the ride (no finish button). Keeping it for now but not paying extra in this state.

The App is simple but it gets the job done. I've just bought the premium version to have the signal sounds. Some suggestions for the developers: It would really great to have a zoom option, without it, it is not easy, sometime, to see the map and if I zoom manually the app stops to follow my position. Another great thing to have would be a timer, to see how long you have been cycling.
