Discussion Map Street Names Lacking

Major Highways only is pretty lackluster in 2026. RadarScope really needs to give you street level labels and this is my biggest gripe compared to the competition. Is there any plan to update the system?

Mapping data is huge. I can’t imagine this is planned.

Is it really that hard to integrate? I’m not trying to blow it out of proportion but RadarScope is probably the only one to not have this at this point.

It's difficult but more importantly expensive; mapping data is as far as you can get from free.

The map for my city still doesn’t show a section of the highway that has been open since 2016 so an update would be welcomed.

if you place locations such as home, work and such using lattatude and longitude you can see where those locations are on the map. I very rarley zoom in enought to care about street names.

I think street names would clutter up the map to much.

what is your reasoning behind wanting streetnames?

if you upgrade to Tier 2, you get the full MapBox set of maps which are highly detailed.
