Unusable

Try to avoid this AP whenever possible however it is the only driving AP connected to my car screen. Not user friendly not accurate. Enough said

Zero star app, total garbage

This app is absolutely total trash. Toyota seems to know how to pick horrible apps. I have yet to get it to connect to my 2017 Sienna. I just keep getting “could not complete request. Please try again later”. I have re-paired my iPhone with it more than once and made sure to allow the app to connect, but it never ever does. Useless.

Bad

Useless. Going back to using Google Maps on my iPhone.

Very disappointing app. Buggy. Went Tango Uniform on my wife in the middle of the freeway during rush hour the first time she tried to use it. The map provided is unintelligible. the 2018s allegedly have a moving map. In a world that has Google Maps this is a travesty. Why not partner with someone that knows what the hell they are doing? Scout GPS/Toyota clearly don't.

Sad excuse for a navigation app

Going from Google maps to this app is just painful. First time I used it the real time map navigation disconnected twice from my display. Its unfortunate my 2018 Camry came with this. Ill have to mount my phone to the dash now and go back to Google maps.

The WORST GPS App

I agree that this is an app that I will never use again!!! I put an address in and when I select go, the app has me going in the opposite direction. Instead of going east it has me going west and taking the longest of routes..Definitely going back to my Garmain of 6 yrs or going to use my IPhone. This way I can select the quickest and easiest routes without going thru the country with the Scout GPS app. I am curious to know how can Apple and Garmain improve their products and update their products but Scout can’t do the same. The only responses I see is that the designers are asking people to email recommendations or provide further information. Really, read the reviews!!! I have read a lot of recommendations. Appears to me the designers don’t know how to make improvements or fix their product. They need outside help to fix the issues and recommendations presented to them. If they would read the reviews, then they would understand the problems with their product. Toyota selected the lowest of lowest bidders!! Do not understand the quality of vehicles that Toyota provides, they allow a product like this to be included in their vehicles. Especially, when I have read some of the safety issues people have been experiencing. Definitely agree there needs to be a recall by Toyota and navigation be built-in without relying on or trusting this product. Is Toyota willing to put their reputation on the line for an app like this? If a product that rates 1.8 out of 5 from consumers, how it is not a priority to get it right!!

Horrible

Inaccurate, very slow response, why would I stop using Waze or google maps for this garbage?

The WORST GPS App

I agree that this is an app that I will never use again!!! I put an address in and when I selected drive, The app had me going on the opposite direction. Instead of going east it had me going west...Looks like I am going back to my Garmain of 6 yrs or google maps. At least I can get updates thru the internet instead of relying on Scout GPS app. I am curious to know how can google and garmain update their products but Scout can’t do the same...Looks to me Toyota selected the lowest of lowest bidder!!

How do we due Toyota for this bait and switch

If anyone figures out we can bring a class action suit over this please include me. Toyota listed on the window sheet of my 2016 tundra an entune nav system but it was a bait and switch gimmick old as the hills. Makes me wonder what I have to be aware of if I purchase another new toyota. If I do. I have had many and kept telling the dealer this last truck purchase that it did not have an entune nav but they said this all that was available. A lie

HORRIBLE Ap! ZERO stars

Buy a &30,000 Toyota and you get and app developed by an inexperienced fraud claiming to be able to design apps for GPS! My Honda’s got it together, SHAME on Toyota! ?

Terrible

This app only lets you get turn by turn directions. You get no map to see where you are going. Very amateurish to me.

New 2018 Camry Hybdid

Just bought a fully loaded 2018 Hybrid two weeks ago. This is my 3rd Toyota Hybrid. This GPS system is so bad I want to return my car and get my money back. How could a great carmaker like Toyota link up with a such a CRAPPY Scout GPS system. I spent another day at Toyota trying to get this to work but it is such a poorly designed system it will never be efficient. I am a salesman and use this all day long and having to plug it in before I start me car every time and wait forever for it to link us is ridiculous. Guess I will be replacing a lot of iPhones with damaged plugs. So sorry I bought this new Toyota.

Help!

This is like the fax machine of GPS...

Garbage

Doesn’t work

Absolutely worthless

I just recently within the week bought a 2016 Toyota Tacoma which is awesome but this app came with it and I downloaded it to my phone. I have tried to use it all week long even just going around the corner just to see how it would work and it is failed every single time. It says it cannot do this now try again later. I have yet to see this work at all. Don’t waste your time because it will do nothing but frustrate you beyond believe. I will stick to using my iPhone.

Garbage

I would give it zero stars if I could. Used it once and it was so bad I never used it again. Toyota, why do you insist on using this for your nav? Give us google maps!

This is unbelievable! I have 2017 Toyota Highlander. I was told at the dealer about the amazing feature "Scout GPS" .Yesterday I almost crash in a one way st because this stupid app. PLEASE HELP. Update this app. Apple play?

Scout

Will not override radio when driving and can’t hear directions. Not user friendly

Why bother

Too many set up steps. Too many apps. Why are we downloading programs to the cars computer? Syncing is a pain. GPS starts tracking late into the start of a route. Drops route without warning. Why not just use Apple car play?

PLEASE UPDATE

I have a 2017 Toyota Camry and I have to log on every time I start my car. This just started after the last few updates. Could you PLEASE update the 2017 to full navigation because as it is, it is not good at all. I am very hurt by this from my Toyota, could someone please do something about this.
