What is the most annoying thing that has ever happened to you when travelling? Getting lost and not being able to find your destination? Well, you’re not alone.

According to online accommodation booking site Hotels.com’s recent Mobile Travel Tracker survey, 77% of Malaysians dislike getting lost and they depend on map apps heavily to find the best routes to avoid traffic congestion and look for new destinations. This is the highest percentage globally. In fact, map apps make up 3.2 hours of the time Malaysians spend daily on their mobile phones during their vacations.
