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."
