Google Maps Navigation Apps Beta

Google Maps Navigation Apps Beta

Google Maps Navigation App in Beta offers a number of features that most GPS navigation apps users will be familiar with. You can search in plain English by just typing or speaking the name of the place you want to go to. You can also get a map of traffic, and search along your current route for any type of business that you may need. It really comes in handy when you need to find a gas station in an area that you are not familiar with. It’s important to remember not to use any of the manual features like search by text or any of the views such as traffic, satellite or street view while driving.

You can switch over to car dock mode to give you only the options that should be used while driving. One thing that this navigation app gives that many others do not is reliability for offline data. Even if you lose signal, the software continues giving instructions based off the most current data that was downloaded. You can even get continued auto rerouting and guidance while offline, which is an impressive feature that others simply haven’t mastered yet.
