Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I recently purchased a new iPod Touch 4G. I use it in the car, at the gym, or traveling by airplane a lot and I often found it annoying that the display would shut off and I had to fumble with the device to see what was playing or advance songs or change volume. With the touch screen you really have to look at the ipod to see what you are doing. This remote solves that with the built in display. Now I can take a quick glance at the remote to see the song name and artist, and change tracks, mode, or volume, just by feel (and keep my eyes on the road). The remote has a clip so I can attach it to my shirt when working out.
I don't notice any change in sound quality or battery life (see tip below).
A tip I have learned. When I first got the Navigate I noticed that I would shut off the ipod and remote but later I would see that both would mysteriously turn on. Sometimes 20 minutes later, sometimes 2 hrs later. If I left the remote plugging all night it would kill my battery, Griffin tech support didn't have a solution so I thought I was going to have to unplug it every time I turned off my ipod or risk running the battery down. Then I finally realized that it was the ipod Wi-Fi that was the culprit. When I turned on "airplane mode", then problem went away. This was no problem in the long run, because I don't need wi-fi when I am driving or an an airplane.
I highly recommend this product.

Navigate maximizes convenient control of your iPod. It has control buttons your fingers can easily locate by touch, and it restores the tactile feedback of the iconic click wheel to touchscreen models. (Which comes in pretty handy when you're using it in a car and need to keep your eyes on the road.)About the size of a pack of matches, Navigate gives you a generous OLED information screen (for when you need to glance at it), on/off, play, volume and EQ controls, and an FM stereo radio. Tuck your iPod out of sight, but keep controls close at hand. Features stereo mini-jack for headphone connections with FM radio and volume control. iPhone users: Just plug Navigate into your dock connector, then connect your headset to the headphone jack of your iPhone to listen and talk.
