    How is it helpful? It isn’t going to know what you need because it doesn’t know if you’re hungry or low on fuel or whatever. It also isn’t going to let you see your options and could just as well be sending you to the worst local option because that’s who paid to advertise

      It’s just like any other website or subscription that offers their “suggestions.” Whether it’s helpful is subjective, but it’s certainly not out of the ordinary.

      It’s pretty common to show various things near your routes? It’s a feature built-in car map systems had since forever, at least. Always got the odd moment where you want to detour to a gas station or need to stop at a pharmacy.

        That’s just saying it’s common, though, not that it’s helpful. Do you actually ever use those recommendations?
