Hey. I have Navigon Mobile Navigator and I remember reading that it was possible to 'simulate' a route, so in other words, before I actually went on it, I could see a simulation of it as if I were driving on it already. I'm not referring to the list of turns, I mean an actual simulation. I can't find this option anywhere though.

Or is this only available in TomTom for iPhone?

This thread explains simulation.

Thanks. But I had already seen that thread, it doesn't really answer the question.

I have read that it will simulate the route if it does not find a GPS signal, but I want to simulate it anyways despite having a GPS signal. That thread you linked to said it's possible, but I see no option for it anywhere, even in the route selection screen.

Go to "More", then "Routes". Create a route (at least two points necessary), then tap "More" again and there's an option where you can choose for simulation.
