Slow and erratic but potentially great ?

2012-02-18 @ 00:23 by w.deyzen
N8 running on Belle. Program is rather erratic and slow, very slow. For example: I want to see the location of some restaurant, found in the viewfinder, on the map. I hit the 'map' icon and after a short time the map appears, but with completely unreadable straatnames. Then I have to wait a much longer time (30-60 sec.), flip the phone and voila: the screen goes black for 2-3 seconds and after that a readable map appears. Same goes for the 'drive' function. A 3D map with unreadable streetnames appears, then you have to wait for about 30-60 seconds, flip the phone and a 3D view with readable names is all yours :-). The funny thing is: if I just use the 'walk' icon a readable map appears almost instantly. And then again: sometimes everything works just fine. In short: CityLens is slow and very erratic but with the right improvements it could be really great. Or my N8 is to blame, perhaps? My 3G 4.8Mbs internet connection?

Hello w.deyzen,

Thank you for trying City Lens and the feedback. App moves between City lens, maps and navigation and depends on network speeds, we will look into the performance improvements. Stay tuned for more updates
