    Is it just me? I'm referring to BGC and part of mackinley hill.

    Even if naka waze nako, it tells me na I should make a u turn in 50 meters, I was on the left side ready for a u turn and and the u-turn slot pala is under tunnel on the right side which is very late para kumabig pakanan, another on is the elevated u turn na pag di ka sanay, for sure left side ka lagi naka pwesto instead ok right.

    Buti na lang nag aadjust ang waze pag naligaw ka.

    Makati is harder to navigate due to the one way streets.

    Also navigating might even be easier in BGC based on the street names.

    So far ok naman paggamit ko ng waze sa Makati, sa Taguig lang talaga because of the uturns na dapat nasa right side ka pala.

    I also would have to admit. parati akong naliligaw dyan sa BGC. sa Makati, hindi pa (although matagal na kasi akong nagwowork sa Makati).
    kaya kung pupunta ako sa BGC, I usually end up taking uber.

    anong mobile phone gamit mo bro?

    try this [url=https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.silentlexx.gpslock&hl=en]app from playstore[url]
    check mo ilan seconds bago mag lock, dapat less than 2 seconds on a sunny day (maski sa bgc)
    check mo rin ilan gps count lalabas, ideally sa open area lampas 20 satts; over 15 is OK.
    for comparison, my xperia C5 ultra (maganda na gps signal nito) had 22 satts, yung xperia T2 ultra ko naman has 28 satts pero magkatabi lang sila.

    I agree with TS. A decade ago BGC was so empty back then. There was a lot of open parking beside Mecredes Benz and now tall skycrappers can

    be seen beside. I wish, I can go back to the past and take a picture of BGC before.

    I also got lost in BGC during the last time I went there. I didn't even noticed the traffic light and ended up getting flagged down by a marshal.

    Back in the 90s- early 2000s it was all talahiban except for the Fort Strip. I remember Fat Willy's then.

    TS, normal lang sa taong naliligaw sa BGC lalo na kung bihirang pumunta o kaya di sya taga doon. dati ang kabisadong kong lugar sa st lukes global lang, that was 2 years. dun kasi ang check up ni mother. I live now in Taguig not in BGC ah, sa poor side location lang tayo ng Taguig.
    +1 sa comment ni M' cathy, mas confusing pa nga ang Makati.

    I'm using my car's gps (the stock AVT head unit ng Mitsubishi). There are certain parts in BGC and Greenbelt 5 area in Makati where it can't seem to get a lock. As in 0 signal. I'll try to compare if my phone gps will get a lock next time I'm in bgc.

    My reflective windshield tint may be a factor but it never happens around Manila or here in Las Piņas and Cavite area.

    Nasa loob ng dash ang gps antenna ng Mitsubishi. Not sure sa ibang kotse. May iba na nagreplace at relocate ng antenna pero sa ibabaw ng dash lang nilalagay.
