It's been really frustrating, because it sometimes tells you what you want, but not always, and it's often pretty stupid.
"Oh, you're three minutes from home at the local starbucks that you go to every day? Here's the navigation card so you know how to get home."
"Oh, it's 2am, after a concert venue you've been to once, 50 miles from home? No navigation card for you. Instead enjoy this story about a basketball game that ended seven hours ago."
When it pops up the right card at the right moment it's awesome, but then you're frustrated when it doesn't, and there's no clear way to convince it to learn the right thing.

"Oh, you temporarily do not have a connection because T-Mobile's coverage is horrendous? This sounds like a great time to wipe all cards you had up and attempt to download them again." "No, I can't let you set reminders because you're not connected to the internet."
