New GPS App for Android (Free)

[medicnick83]

So today I got a notification (well on the way to Club Mykonos) that Telmap Navigator is going to be terminated at the end of March 2014.

What other applications are available for Android, Free and as good as Telmap?

This is what I'm using: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vodacom_sa.navigator

Thanks for that. Will give it a look-see.

I've pretty much been using Google Maps from the moment it became available. The only pain in the ass is when CellC gives me the finger and data is a dud.

Otherwise it's not too heavy on data at all.

I haven't used Telmap, so I can't say if it's as good or not.

Remember to save maps on your device. Don't know if the option is there, but zoom out to the area you want to save(its limited so you might need to do this a few times) and in the search bar type "OK Maps"

Navfree isn't bad:

I use Navigator. Works well. Constant map updates for SA

I just wish Google maps didn't remove NAVIGATION from a separate shortcut/app. Getting to navigate from the maps app itself is a much more drawn out process.

In what way?

I can't say it's much of a drawn out process, but I was confused when they removed the icon. Took me ages to figure out I had to go into google maps

Never had issues with Google Maps.
