1. No other user reviews are displaying despite having the overall score shown.This app could easily be better than 90% of other map apps but No English???? How are foreigners supposed to use it in China? I mean directions can be in English (optional) not locations or street names it's impossible to use without having to learn the most difficult language in the world first.
2. If you need to map in China and you can read Chinese, I guess this is better than nothing hence the second starBaidu Maps is the best resource for navigation in China, Google Maps cannot compare in any way there.
3. Amazing fact is that chinese people are fine with all this.... :) So I guess we foreigners just have to get used to it, we are guests in China anyway.Very useful app when you travel to China, tells you which direction to go, which mrt or bus to take, when to get off etc.
4. Being all in Chinese is fair, but the reason the developers don't translate it to other languages/expand to other regions is because the product could not possibly compete with Google Maps.
5. I wish the Didi option linked to the English version of the didi app instead of within the Baidu Maps app.this app is good but not user friendly.
6. All Chinese apps are trying to kill your phone by consuming all possible resources at once and driving foreigners crazy with the amount of useless notifications and permissions.
7. I use it to find attractions, navigate, explore cities, and use Baidu's version of Google Street View.
8. Without these maps it's difficult to travel here in China.
9. That's the only use I've found.Fast loading & GPS 100% accurate - much better than Google mapsNo English mode, fairly faulty GPS in major cities.
10. It is *incredibly* slow to load the base map layers and seems inferior to Google Maps in every way.
11. you must need to learn to read the map or find locations on the map otherwise you will be lost in this big country.
