Navigon updates Mobile Navigator North America

in case anyone is wondering, the TomTom car kit works with any GPS app. At least, it works with Navigon and the few other free GPS related apps I tested it with.

Hey, jb510, it's not a bug it's a feature. Motion X includes music data while Navigon doesn't. It's like saying one word processor includes a spell checker while another doesn't. I can understand wanting this feature, but I'd rather devote as much screen real estate to navigation information as possible. If I forget what music I chose on the iPod, I can easily jump back to iTunes - not difficult nor time consuming. Just a personal preference.

Navigon is the beat heads up, I did have Tom Tom and I deleted it, because most of the time I can't understand the tts, ex. Keep right toward (Whitestone branch) I know Whitestone bridge never heard of branch. Night mode Dan that crazy aZZ blue color. Navigon all the way 10 stars.

Got the update. I like Navigon a lot. It does tax the iPhone a lot... using it all day actually drained the battery even though it was plugged into the car. Perhaps this new edition is more efficient.

Can anyone tell me if they've fixed the podcast bug? Ie podcasts not showing up from the music player within the app?

I've been considering replacing my Garmin Zumo with an iPhone nav app - but which one. I often find myself in areas with no cell reception for extended periods - which of the nav apps store the map data locally?

If the app requires a cell signal to operate (display position or calculate route) then it's no good to me.

Is it me or does Twitter/Facebook integration sound like a nice idea in principle but a privacy nightmare in reality? Surely a targeted means of keeping people informed of your progress is a better idea that would be served with "old" technology like email or SMS. I like the idea of, for example, keeping my mum informed of our progress when driving across the country to visit but I don't particularly want anyone else to know.

you guys must have a much better GPS chip in your 3GS, because my iphone takes a VERRRYYYY LOOOONG time to locate me. For finding my location quickly, its completely useless.

Love the app, always have. Glad they always make it a bit better.

Definitley seems faster and more responsive on my 3G.

Haven't had much luck with the 3D terrain though. Everything looks flat even though I live in a hilly area. I guess I need to drive through some mountains.
