I scrolled from NE US where I live to the Netherlands. As I zoom in around the center of the country the app crashes. Repeated this twice. Also the app shows satellite maps even when that option is not enabled. No big deal but it does not work as intended I think. It would be nice if you could enter a place name to search instead of scrolling the map. I tried but it doesn't work so it is probably not implemented yet.
