G+_Stuart Boston Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Waze is very good and uses Google maps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Jeffrey Young (lilazndu Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I think you mean Google maps uses conditions reported from waze? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Julie Wills Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Yep, the Navigation function of Google Maps is what you're after. You may even have a separate blue direction arrow Navigation icon in your app drawer (it's just a shortcut into the Navigation portion of maps).

G+_Greg Mackey Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Google maps is best, but Navfree is a good second option, it can go offline and not use data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Charles Gauthier Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Steven Rod the Google nav/maps is the best. The only issue is data. Google maps does not use heavy data, but it does use some. If you have a good data plan you are fine, if not try Navfree from the PlayStore.?

G+_Julie Wills Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 If you have enough storage, but not a great data plan, you can download map snippets to your device in Google Maps. And/or, if you plan your journey just before you leave a WiFi connection, Google Maps will only need to use data if you leave the pre-planned route (to recalculate).

G+_Steven Rod Posted December 28, 2013 Author Share Posted December 28, 2013 I was giving Google Maps a try I had to go from my store a to another store, at a greater distance and wanted to make sure to take the right exit. I could not get the voice part of it to work. I could have a setting off, but I though there was voice guidance with the maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Jeffrey Young (lilazndu Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 You're able to mute the voice guidance part and it doesn't look like there's an apparent way to see that without trying to toggle that option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
