User reviews

Magic Earth is praised for being a free, ad-free navigation app with offline capabilities and specialized features for RVs and trucks. Users appreciate its driving aids like speed limit warnings and an AI camera assistant. However, multiple reviews note issues with outdated or incorrect map data, missing route customization options, and weak traffic or speed camera alerts. Several users report UI annoyances like an unremovable search bar and difficulties managing saved data. Despite some stability and announcement bugs, it stands out as a promising alternative to mainstream apps.

Recent reviews

Thanks for the fully free, ad-free app but it's lacking very useful features so badly. For example, there is no way automatically dowoad all the medium location maps when you are starting building directions to the very remote place. It's very useful when you are in the plane, flying, and wanted to know where exactly are you now.

The best alternative to Google maps that I've found! I especially like the fact that I can set up a separate profile for when I am towing my travel trailer and give it the dimensions to get an RV-safe route. The only minor problem I've found is that once connected to my truck's display, it does not show the current road I am on. This is a minor inconvenience for the peace of mind of knowing I've got an RV-safe route.
