User Reviews

• Not an application, it's an update only

  Pros

  There are no pros to this application

  Cons

  This is only an update if you already have MapSource installed. It will not work unless you already have it.

• A Waste Of Time

  vanbodegon4/1/2012

  Pros

  I find it very hard to find a "Pro" for what is only a file update of the original Mapsource. It seems to me that Garmin goes to some extra effort to make using their Apps difficult to sort out and use.

  Cons

  If you don't already have Mapsource installed it it just a useless waste of time. It is an update to the original version. I was looking for an App to be installed on my new computer and continue what I started in my old XP. The original version was very hard to use and not user friendly at all. It is a shame because the car version of Garmin Nuvi is a pleasure to use in my car and motor home.

  Summary

  Look elsewhere. There must be another source of free and easy to use map editing software.

• Deceptive Advertising

  RealTruthTeller6/16/2011

  Pros

  None. Downloaded file is not what was advertised.

  Cons

  This is NOT the Mapsource program. It is an UPDATE ONLY. It is totally useless and a waste of time unless you already have a previous version of the Mapsource program.

  Summary

  Totally useless waste of time unless you already have a previous version of the Mapsource program (but then, why would you need this? In that case just go directly to the garmin website and download an update).

• Great map program for Garmin GPS

  pmhirsch12/24/2010

  Pros

  Easy to use to set waypoints and download them to the Garmin GPS

  Cons

  Searching from street names could be improved. You need to search for the exact name. Most people are used to google search which allows approximate search strings.

  Summary

  Very good program for Garmin GPS receivers
