Which GPS Software?

5 replies · 4,196 views · Started 17 December 2008

Hiya, I have got to go on a fairly long and annoying drive on Thursday, and have decided to get some GPS software for the phone.

Apparently there are a lot of brands that are incompatible with the Innov8 - so I was wondering, what is the best GPS software that works on the phone? Should I just stick to route 66, or is there a version of Garmin that works now?

Cheers

Route 66 works really well. (not quite up to TomTom's standard, but you won't get TomTom to run).

I'd stick with what's built in.

I would agree with Stu, Route 66 is actually a pretty good program. You can download maps for free (14 day trial). I bought the UK & Ireland maps and have not been disappointed so far.

You can do it directly on the phone. See the thread on these forums for fixing a known download bug in the Maps configuration though.

OK, done all that, but how do I activate the trial? At the moment, it just says that I need to buy a licence . . .
