XTreme Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 I've always used Google Maps but I want something that isn't so confusing on the map view. Ideally like the type of view you get on the Garmins and TomToms etc. Any recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tested Waze and it was a lot clearer to look at than Google Maps but I didn't think it's instructions on making turns etc was quite right.

Buckster Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 You can get Tom Tom for android. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTreme Posted June 23, 2023 Author Share Posted June 23, 2023 Tried Maps.me but found it limited on features compared to Waze. And the screen view wasn't as clear as Waze either. Anybody else got any other options? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowlycatchymonkey Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 You can adjust the level of instruction even on google maps. It can dumb down the number of roads and infill etc considerably if you want. Not wanting to spend a lot of money? I’d recommend spending time familiarising yourself with Waze which is powered by google maps. Wanting something dedicated? Give up they’re mostly crappier than google maps or Waze. Yes the screens are larger, brighter and easier to read. They’re just shit to preload with routes and will eat up your own down time with a lot of swearing. One caveat on that- if you have a phone and sat nav compatible with garmin drive you can quite easily send the (correctly formatted) gps co-ordinates directly to your garmin with no hassle. Just talking about this makes me want a nice alcoholic beverage 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
