I just found out that the latest upgrade of magic earth no longer works in the car, it now requires a subscription. Still works on the phone, but having it in the car display is just better.
So is there an alternative that does what waze/magicearth does that you know of? I’m thinking about the real time traffic and hazards update mostly.



I had just signed up via the mobile app a couple weeks ago for the free trial, renewing at $1/year thereafter. They sent several notifications (or emails, can’t remember) about the price going up soon. Hopefully the old pricing will be honored unless cancelled.
I had been looking for a privacy-respecting alternative to Google Maps / Apple Maps that has real time traffic info. Hopefully, as @woelkchen@lemmy.world suggested, the quality of that data doesn’t degrade too much due to chasing away users / their data sources.
