    I used it yesterday and here are a couple of things I noticed. It did not recognize that I had arrived at the address I entered, in fact, it tried to re-route me back after I left so I had to end that trip and start another. If there was a "I have arrived" or "Skip this stop" option, even though the app didn't recognize that I had arrived, that would be helpful. It would also be helpful to know the next turn ahead of time, especially when going through multiple freeway exchanges.

Also, please private message us with your wife's sister's address/location so we can investigate this. We are constantly working on updating the maps. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

    Hey @Kapn , please private message me with the address that you entered where it would not recognize you had arrived. Those are great suggestions!! Thanks! I will submit that to my team to look into. I do know in an upcoming update, drivers will be alerted to the next turn ahead of time. This will be coming soon. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We appreciate it.

    Tried Hammer again today for the five miles from the freeway to the yard. Was sorta impressed compared to the last time that I used it. I’m not sure I’ll trust it on my trip to Baltimore next week though. Maybe I’ll try running it along with my trusty TND510. Wish me luck!!

    Made it to Baltimore. Hammer worked pretty well this trip. It even pulled up the route that I planned to take——once I tried it from a service plaza on the OHTPK. One complaint that I have is that the indicator arrow does not change directions when the screen is in North up setting. Other than that, it’s working pretty well.
