Navigation App recommendation

I recently purchased the TomTom app. I haven't used it much, but I like what I've seen so far.

 

I recommend Navigon.

 

Navigon is like $59.99 , is that yearly ? sound like a bit much . After 2 yrs u can buy a small lifetime map update one ? no ?

 

It's a one-time purchase, but you can also buy extra features.

 

Navigon rocks!
I paid the $79 it was when it first came out and I dont regret it, its that good.
You can buy regoinal (west, midwest, & east coast) for cheaper.
The in app traffic is great too since it routes you around the traffic.

My brother has TomTom and he likes mine better and bought the West coast Navigon.

Not sure about others.

I have 5 people who have seen Navigon and bought it and thank me all the time for it.

 

Really - One time fee? and u can always keep it on ur phone? sounds like a plan !!! if thats the case it sounds very affordable !! any negatives from users of it?

 

I too got the Navigon app when it came out. Love it, especially the lane assistance which is awesome when youre in an area you are not familiar with. The one time fee has also included all map updates so far.

Another point to mention is that this app's maps are on the phone, so no need for a cell signal to use it.

 

I've had Navigon for a while and have used it to drive over 2,500 miles. I only got lost once and that was my fault and it was easy to find my way back. I tried out the TomTom app but I didn't like it because the routing wasn't as good. I would say that Navigon is on par or better with my Garmin Nuvi. It has traffic upgrades and you can pay for 3D mode. Overall I would say that you won't be disappointed with Navigon! (PS if you used Google Navigation, Navigon is a heck of a lot better)

 

I didn't like Navigon much. Part of it was I was coming from a "real" TomTom device, so the interface was a little foreign. Definitely like the TomTom app.

Something about Navigon drove me a little nuts though. Specifically, in some cases, it wouldn't show the names of many of the streets that intersected the current road I was on. Then, in another oddity, it would show the name of streets two and three blocks away from where I was, that didn't intersect with my current road at all. It drove me nuts.

 

I'll +1 on the props for Navigon. Best NAv app I have used hands down.

 

What are all the navigation apps to choose from?

 

I tried all the major navigation apps through installous before purchasing Navigon and I love it. Its definitely the best one and I got the in-app purchases (traffic + panorama 3d) which has improved in further.

 

Navigon is king!!! Worth every penny.

A nice free one is Waze. It's pretty accurate with routing & traffic in populated cities. Haven't tried it any rural areas tho.

 

I'll vote for Waze. It's free, fun, and has international maps too. But I don't think it can do waypoints if that's really important for you.

 

Another free one that does not rely on a data connection, but stores maps (like navigon) is Navfree

Pretty decent imo

 

I've been using the Verizon Application on my current phone for free but with the iPhone it will now be $9.99/month.

At that price it will only take 8 months to hit $79. With traffic alerts I'd bet the Navigon is better too. Definitely NOT going VZ Navigator.

 

I would recommend Navigon, I got it when they were running a sale for $30.

 

I also recommend Navigon. Purchased that almost a year and a half ago, purchased 2/3 in-app purchases including traffic and absolutely love it. Has yet to let me down.

 

+1 for Navigon. You can't beat the price for the MyRegion version. And lifetime traffic for $19.99 can't be beat!
