Diary: Long navigation apps

Navi-apps on the phone are a perennial favourite. If you not - need it the little helpers? We had reported already extensively, also from the forums of the Navi app hype. But more and more suggestions and practical tips there, here is a summary.

Professional systems or Google Maps Navigation?

NAVIGON has it in the first place of the top 50 iPhone apps from chip.de managed. A document that Navi apps today are an important tool of smartphone users. Also, I found the note that "ADAC maps for members" is available not only for the iPhone, but also for Android for free for ADAC members.

On AndroidPIT still a discussion has evolved, which raised the question whether there must be a professional solution or the Google model is sufficient. Christian G. wrote this: "I have found my goal always wonderful and now Google knows even the roads/Highway names and also good reads them out." "I see no reason to buy me a"pay Navi"at the moment." Jens Marauhn slightly towards the professional system: "I use mostly CoPilot Live D-A-CH". Has been in no way am disappointed. "The Google Maps Navigation is in itself also class, has to be off me but in the district and quite detours." Benno recommends NAVIGON: "As frequent in the Switzerland and almost daily in new area on the road, I had various systems in the operation." "At the moment I use NAVIGON on the Android, in particular because this also correctly shows traffic in the Switzerland in contrast to other providers."

Offboard problem and a simple solution

Andy N. has a good tip to the offboard problem the Google Maps Navigation: "Google maps goes very well with a bad or no connection." "Where I've tested it you could not use actually the mobile Internet, Google Maps has displayed the data immediately but thanks to cache and small amounts of data."

A Schwank concludes

At the end of the discussion, Ceyngo contributed even a small navigation Schwank: "Yes, I had what fun times, a borrowed navi had a wahrliche kreiselschleife in gummersbach in nrw = I should in the roundabout exit the 2 take, when I was in the roundabout then it was called, please contact their route is recalculated." "That nimmste figured no matter the 2nd exit thing calms down again - by because = please contact and in the roundabout take the 2nd, so I back in the superstar where it was then at once follow the roundabout 2 km long."

Spacious large tour

For campers, there are the great solution: the iPad as a Navigator - at the same time, the name of a very informative thread on Wohnmobilforum.de. It still a tip from Nille cheap shopping of Navis: "I use the SW of NAVIGON, which is widely used for 59.90 in the offer and has then throughout Europe." "If it fills up then the iTunes credit of discount cards of the discount store, that's not too expensive."

What is your opinion about Navi-apps?

What is your favorite model and what features should have?

Secure cell phone insurance: with the package number

Certainly, some have already seen this big. And many others fear what happened valeriamaus94: "I have a sony xperia mini 10pro end 2010 bought at the base and also assure let my handy, but it's me today fell down and the slide along it hangs from now on!" do I now replaced my cell phone or do I pay it! , she asks in mobilfunk-talk.

Valeriamaus94 is lucky, she will get paid well at least the repair, because she was so careful to extra insure their mobile phone. BASE customers who have signed a contract for a Smartphone or mobile phone since 1 February in the BASE shop or since 1 April in the BASE-online-shop are still better off. Because in BASE the insurance is part of it just automatically - free of charge.

Fully insured borrowing equipment during repair,

With the "mobile phone service package" water, camber and breakages are insured, even Akkuschäden be covered. The good piece no longer be repaired, it is exchanged.  And in the case of a repair man is there without a cell phone, because then there is a free loaner.  The insurance runs on the entire cell phone contract period of 24 months.  To report the damage by telephone about the BASE customer hotline.

Loyalty voucher can be used flexibly

Even the loyalty voucher, you will receive together with conclusion of the contract with your mobile phone and you can redeem at the end of the contract is part of the mobile phone service package. Because BASE rents the mobile phone for 24 months (and not monthly paid), there are two ways at the end of the lease: 1. man the device returns (either where you got the phone at the end of mobile telephone agreement including rent), or send the mobile phone together with a copy of the contract to BASE). 2. It shall enter the loyalty voucher, to buy the phone at the then-current price.  The value of the coupon received upon conclusion of contract is sufficient in any case to do so.

You can use the loyalty voucher but also e.g. for a statement credit. In any case, can you obviously choose a new cutting-edge mobile phone on a contract extension and this rent for two more years.

Lists all the details for each mobile phone in the shop

There is the understanding of the contractual details and the handling of the mobile phone service package and the loyalty voucher on base.de. The procedure in an extra box explains each offered device with package, as well the value of loyalty voucher is called as lutea about here at the BASE there.

Also here in the blog, "Rent or purchase" was discussed already on Pro & contra. What do you like better: to rent the mobile phone and so easy to pay in instalments, and to have the mobile phone also fully insured? Or rather, you are the type who says: I would like to have, rather, what I use. Write us your opinion but.
