Straightforward look for a practical interface
From the visual perspective, this application doesn't offer a lot since its looks are mainly designed to be more functional than appealing. Everything revolves the map displayed inside the main screen and all the functions and commands are placed conveniently, for quick access.
The navigation on the map has a quite fluent feel to it in both modes the app comes with, namely the aerial and road views.
