I don’t understand why people pay for this app? I’ve never used it but I’ve never had any issues with the free villages gps. Is there something else the paid version provides? Other than being routed through construction zones?

I found that TV App froze often and didn't give proper "North is up" maps. Also, the pay app had voice commands.

Interesting. I’ve never had any issues with it myself and it also gives voice commands.

The big difference is that it will give you point to point directions. The Villages app will only give you directions from your current location
