Turn-by-turn: Far from perfect – RunGo - The Best Routes to Run Review

I appreciate that this app allows me to map out new routes on my phone, unlike Runkeeper. The turn-by-turn directions for those routes, however, are far from perfect. I often end up “off route” even when I have been trying follow the app’s audio prompts. Then I have to pause, unlock my phone, and look at the map to see how to get back to the route. At some point, the app will start saying, “Off route. Rejoining route in ___ miles.” But the number of miles is way off, rendering the audio alert useless. Another problem is a lack of precision — or perhaps it is over-precision — in the turn-by-turn directions. For example, if I need to turn right, the app will often tell me to turn left, and then a few seconds later, it will tell me to turn around. I end up going the correct way, I suppose, but it is confusing for me and for others around me.
