What are you guys using for GPS? Navigator is on the phone, but are there other/better ones out there for android? thanks
-Mike
RU talking maps? Nav? telemetry?
I use CoPilot for Nav, Endomondo for tracking and stats.
Nav. CoPilot in your opinion is better than stock Navigator?

I noticed that the tomtom maps that comes with tomtom go have a higher vers. number than the maps I have in my wizard. Are this maps compatibles with TT Navigator 5.2? Other question: Do you know some advantage using the "plus" maps? are they more acurate? Thank you
plus maps have the main roads of the limitroph countries in addition to what you have on the regular map. So they are alrger but not more accurate. They are interresting when you plan a travel across different countries
hello everyone!
i am going to buy a gps mouse today, the hollux 236, and now i am wondering, what you think are the best apps to use with a gps mouse!?
most of all i am interessted in navigation software, like TomTom for example. but what are the alternatives to TomTom? what's your recommended nav software?
i would also like to know, what other usefull apps there are to use with a gps mouse...?
any info is appreciated!
thx in advance,
krz
I would definetly go for tomtom navigator 6, its the best ive ever used simple yet effective
IGO - the best for driving navigation
Wich country
You will not always have the choice because not always navigation software have the maps for the countries you want.
for exemple, Tom Tom is a lot for Europe and USA and Mapking for Asia
I am using three on my Artemis:
iGO 2006 Plus with the lastest Portuguese/Spanish maps (2007.07);
TOMTOM 6.032 (8351)with the latest Iberia maps (675.1409);
ROUTE66 Navigate7 with the latest Iberia maps (Q4, 2006 i think);
Both TOMTOM and iGO work better than Route66 because R66's maps are very old and i can't find anything more recent. My favourite is TOMTOM because of its ease of use and overall speed starting up/navigating. iGO has got the looks and the maps are as good (or seem to be) as TOMTOM's.
I also have a TOMTOM GO V3 standalone navigator with version 7 of both the software and maps (Iberia Version 710) and those are way more updated than version 675.1409. Also it has much more detail on the maps.
All this text to say that if TOMTOM7 comes out for the PDAs it's gonna be a winner for me.
i would say garmin...now there is the new mobile xt prog for free for ppc...correct maps for europe...including deep city view
thx for the answers!
i think, i will give iGo Plus a shot....
what other cool tools should i get for working with the gps...?
i once heard of tools to programm or configure the gps mouse...?
interessted in more tips and tricks,

good choice !
I use Igo and I like it more than Tomtom.
the next version (Igo 8) is coming soon and I was very impressed with the demo I've seen.
But is there any good GPS software with Middle East maps. I love navigation but dont have any GPS Software.
If anyone of you have a GPS software with Middle East Maps, so please can you give me.
Thanks

Where do you get this sw free?
http://www.garmin.com/garmin/cms/site/us
you can visit that site for further information, i guess garmin works the same way tomtom does, so you can get the software for free and maybe a test map and the only thing you need to buy are the maps. i didn't look up the price for a us / north america map now, because i am at work and the garmin site is really slow.
Hi,
I have just ordered my new HTC migic, but not sure if I can run TOMTOM GPS on it, any idea of suggestion?
Thank you in advance.
no u can't. yet.
NDrive
Destinator
Sygic Mobile Maps
Co-Pilot
IGO Amigo
IGO MyWay
MotoNav
Navigon
Papago
these are all GPS navigation applications with offline maps..you can find them everywhere. personally, NDrive is the best one. theyre coming out with version 10 which has lane-assist, signposts, TTS, and a few other useful features.
i think sygic is the closest to TomTom's interface. but when i used it the lane assist didnt work, poi's are terrible, routing isnt the best, and it shows N/A for some streets instead of the name. sometimes it would tell me to go onto roads that dont exist or make me take so many u-turns...lol
WE NEED GARMIN FOR ANDROID
hi all.
i have always used tomtom on my previous windows phones.
im presuming tomtom is not available for android yet.
soooooooooooooooo....
what can we use instead?
google maps is an ok alternative but its not what i like as a long term sat nav..
i tried navigon but well... erm... its worse than google maps..
im currently using copilot proffesional and for use in the car its great...
BUT... the audio stops outputting when the application is minimised or the screen is off..
im looking for a reliable sat nav install that still outputs directions in audio while the screen is off and locked or,,, could make do with it just been locked. as i use it on my motorbike and use headphones with the phone in my pocket..
i'm just about to try sygic mate
will let u know how i get on
I miss tomtom, tried sygic and it is not that user friendly.
Any other better GPS app available so far?
Yes, and there are tons of threads on this topic. Do a search!
I tried them virtually all:
SYGIC around 8MB
COPILOT has the most settings and options, shows speed
NAVIGON
IGO MOTONAV takes most of space, almost 30MB, excellent TOPMAPS
NDRIVE
NAVDROYD cheap 5€ only !

Navigation of the google or NDRIVE.
But what is the best of Navigation.
I am using Navigon Select and it works perfectly with my HTC Desire.
It´s very smooth and easy to handle.
I have a P500 and i wonder what is the best navi for it? i use IGo but , it takes a while to connect to a sattelite . is there a software or another navigation software faster to connect?

Go for Google Maps
Google Maps is not so accurate over Romania. The best GPS maps for Romania are from Garmin. I also search for an improved GPS app. iGo? I think iGO maps are outdated.

Yep, Copilot is pretty great!
I Use Google Maps (Onwhere version with worldwide navigation) - absolutely flawless. When I have to go abroad, I use Copilot - it is fully offline, so it doesn't cost me fortune on roaming.
download
Do you guys have a download page for copilot live ? Or a link orsomething?
If so i use it especially in romania.so the map is updated?
sygic aura, it work fine with map offline,and it's possible to download romania maps
NDrive works for me. it can be used offline

What is this "onwhere" version you are talking about? Pardon my ignorance, I'm new to android
Sent from my LG-P500 using Tapatalk
Using Sygic Mobile Maps 10 (with TeleAtlas maps). Perfectly fine for the countries I need (Czechia, Slovakia, Germany, Austria). For some others, only major roads are covered though, so might not be what you want.
See sygic.com/en/android:maps for info on road coverage per country.
Ndrive is the best
I'm using IGo and i am very satisfied with Romania maps

i downloaded google maps and my phones comes with ndrive with my country maps for free
hi
ndrive is very acccurate....
In India, for me the Best navigation app is Sygic Mobile Maps with Map my India 6.0 maps.
Offline, fast and accurate.
Here in Brazil I've used Google Navigator. There is NDrive too, but it's too expensive....
