The app works fine for getting to and from rec centers. Not so good for individual house directions, but for $7, I think it's worth it.

It amazes me that folks think that $6.99 is too much. A paper map will cost you that now. I have used both, and find the paid app to be more user friendly, and new areas are added quicker.

Both will work, but I find the paid easier to use.

It used to be worth it but the free villages app changed to talk instructions so not worth it now

I've found that if you take the time by 2/3rds, it's almost perfect. If Google Maps says a bicycle will do it in 15 minutes, figure 10 minutes by golf cart.

I started with and still like the GPS app but as of late I have had issues with it. I have read about the guys that made it and manage it, they are great.
When there is an issue The Villages app has never let me down. I think that the other is better visually for me but….

Lots of input for $7.

Did you spend or not.
