Magic earth is the best but having no to little traffic info make it useless

I don’t use the traffic data that often (basically never) but it seems just fine to me. I’m not getting any more or any less that I would with Google Maps

Not able to see closed roads for months is not ideal navigation but other than that magic earth is the best navigation app

I use it for bus and train times (when the trains are not on strike)
