There's your problem! ;)

Are there any settings you can access directly for the app? Or in the app itself. Is Google's Nav app out for iOS or is it just maps?


Update - I did some quick research and there is no option to turn it off. Some claim it was implemented by Apple so people would switch to Apple Maps and others claim its for conserving battery. I found several people saying that when you get near to the next set of directions the screen will come back on when you are given the directions. So it kinda hibernates I guess. Others have said that it just completely disable navigation sometimes. Maybe a fix in the future to disable it?

Afternoon rush hour, heading southbound on I-25 (usually starting around Dry Creek) as you approach the exit for C470.

To ALL you douchers who pass the people stopped on I25 (heading towards Lincoln/castle rock area), acting as if you were exiting on C470...then at the last minute, cutting BACK over onto I-25 Southbound.

I hate you all. Stop it! Wait with the rest of traffic dbags. :mad:

I know that look well. I mean, I do it too. But when dogs do it, there's just so much truth in their eyes...but the guilt is in the air.

When the state suspends your vehicle registration without telling you and then you get pulled over and your vehicle is illegally impounded, and when you sort it all out they realize the cop messed up and they cover it up by destroying the ticket and you still have to pay the towing and impound fee.

very fukked up, the same way if your car is stolen, you get to pay the impound fees too...
there was a huge article somewhere within the last year or two about this, I think the main story was this lady who was 'mistakenly identified' as the wrong person, she got arrested, car was impounded, fee's were racked up while she cleared her name and by the time it was over she had a huge bill and couldn't get her car back anymore because of cost, all at no fault of her own... :mad:

It was my parents' chihuahua. And I had just been at their house the night before and she really looked awful, so it wasn't that big of a surprise, but still hit me harder than I expected, especially being that it wasn't my own pet, but still it was a pet that I had spent a good deal of time with.

- Living next to people who park a nasty/dirty/ghetto "boat" out front (see above)
...among other things-- inoperable cars, small children (presumably with no parents), toys and other misc. clutter
