Google Maps Navigation: Free Turn-by-Turn Directions for Android Phones

by Content Keyword RSS on October 28, 2009

Google announced Google Maps Navigation for Android 2.0 today — turn-by-turn navigation for Google Maps running on Android smartphones, using the phones’ Internet connection to fetch up-to-date map, direction and traffic data. Also satellite imagery and Street View. Also, it’s free, thanks to the fact that Google owns its own street data in the U.S., no longer relying on Tele Atlas ; its terms of service with the mapping providers prevented them from doing something like this before.
