"Maps" app - voice navigation
Is there any rumor / voice / scream in witch the "map" app of the iphone will have also voice navigation? It's very updated and using it as car navigator so far, leads only to car crash (you hav always to tap the screen to prevent it locking and must concentrate on it to see where turn.

2) there is already a map app in the iphone, why download another one that will use 2 GB of my space
Because it provided the voice navigation you want, and does not require any connection to any data, wifi or cellular. Apples Map app needs to be able to constantly download the map data as you move around (which eats whatever data allowance you have).

How to change "home" address on IPhone 5s map app for navigation purposes
How to change "home" address on IPhone 5s map app for navigation purposes
OK I tried that. I have two apps that need updating and it STILL shows the old Apple ID from the App store. I even tried logging off iTunes and powering off the phone, then powering it back on and logging in. Still shows the OLD Apple ID in the app store. The correct one is showing in the Settings/iTunes. Any other thoughts?

Is there a way to get the maps voice directtions to play through my car's audio system - as my phone calls do?
In my car Google Maps app functions perfectly, whereas Maps does not.
Siri responses play through bluetooth
Phone calls play through bluetooth
Maps navigation prompts do not.
Yesterday I tried Google Maps and it works perfectly. As much as I hate to use anything Google, for now I will use their maps app for navigation. -
hello.
I'm a newbie for developping iPhone app.
Following is my question:
When I push "direction" button which is located at the bottom of "Maps" app, a navigation bar is shown (this bar has 2 textFields).
How can I custom navigationBar like this ?
please help me.
thanksI don't think the bar with two text fields is a navigation bar, it's just a UIView customized with two text fields and button on the left. But, when you click the directions button the navigation bar is slided down with two buttons (Clear and Cancel).I don't know if the following suggestion is the right way but in my application I just change the frame of the navigation bar outside the bounds of the screen and when someone click on the search bar, I animate the nav bar frame to slide down by using UIAnimations block and changing the frame attributes.
Hope, you got the idea. -
I know that it is possible to turn off the voice for turn-by-turn directions completely (in the settings menu), but is there a way to temporarily silence the voice from the maps app itself? For example, if I am driving to the freeway from my house I know how to get there and do not want my phone talking to me, but I would like to keep the directions active and turn on the voice once I need it later in the directions. Is there an easy way to do this without going to the settings app each time?
I don't think there's any way to do it, but I'd like that feature as well: on long trips I listen to an audiobook and when I'm travelling routes that I already know well, I mostly want to use navigation to route around any traffic that might occur.
In both cases, the voice directions aren't welcome, and I can get by with the on-screen display… and in other GPS navigation software or hardware I've had, muting the voice was an easily accessed option. (Garmin USA on the iPhone, for example, has a 'mute' icon available right on the maps display).
I've requested that feature at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html - you may wish to do the same. -

TS1702 No voice navigation option on maps on iPad mini
No voice navigation on my iPad mini maps app. Can I get this?
The iWatch s/w is one small app. No big deal.
I have no problems with voice navigation on iOS 8.2.
I believe that your problem may be that you have the WiFi only iPad which gets its location from nearby WiFi routers that it sees and which are in Apple's router location database. If it does not see routers it does not know where it is. This would prevent voice navigation from working. -
Map app is dangerous
it does not provide any voice direction. I almost made an ACCIDENT. You Cannot expect anyone to drive while looking at the screen.Correct the Map app does not give audible turn by turn navigation. It does not advertise as doing so. There are many GPS applications which are avaialble that do.
Like any device use of common sence is in order. From the Important Product Information Guide, one of which can be found here.
Driving and Riding Safely Use of iPhone while driving a vehicle or riding a bicycle may be distracting. If you find using iPhone disruptive or distracting while driving or riding, pull off the road and park before making or answering a call. Use of iPhone alone or with headphones (even if used only in one ear) while driving or riding is not recommended and is illegal in some areas. Consider using a compatible hands-free device with iPhone. Use of a hands-free device may be required in some areas. Check and obey the laws and regulations regarding the use of mobile devices like iPhone in the areas where you drive or ride. Navigating Safely Do not rely on iPhone applications that provide maps, digital compass headings, orientation information, traffic information, directions, or location-based navigation to determine precise locations, proximity, orientation, distance, traffic conditions or direction. These applications should only be used for basic navigation assistance. Maps, directions, and location-based applications depend on data services. These data services are subject to change and may not be available in all areas, resulting in maps, digital compass headings, directions, traffic conditions or location-based information that may be unavailable, inaccurate, or incomplete. iPhone contains an internal digital compass located in the upper-right corner of iPhone. The accuracy of digital compass headings may be negatively affected by magnetic or other environmental interference, including interference caused by the close proximity of the magnetscontained in the iPhone earbuds. Never rely solely on the digital compass for determining direction. Compare the information provided on iPhone to your surroundings and defer to posted signs to resolve any discrepancies.
Do not use location-based applications while performing activities that require your full attention. Always comply with posted signs and the laws and regulations in the areas where you are using iPhone. -
Voice navigation not working on iOS 6 maps 4S

Coming out of maps on iPhone 4S maps on iOS 6/6.0.1

I have a tableView displaying a list of contacts from a Cloud Database. After selecting a contact, I push to a programmatically created MKMapView. Then I display the initial region (the view) that includes the users current location (starting point) and their selected destination (end point).
Now I want to display annotations (as described in the Location Awareness Programming Guide) that displays polylines which will represent the turn-by-turn navigation IN MY OWN APPLICATION, and not in the Map App currently used in IOS6.
Due to licensing and its becoming depricated in IOS 6, I do not want to get routing data from the Google Maps API. How do I get routing data from the IOS 6 Map App (powered by TomTom) so I can display the point-to-point annotations (turn-by-turn navigation) without leaving my own application?
I checked out Stack Overflow and other forums which basically left me with the impression that this is not possible. I also checked out the TomTom iPhone Mobile SDK User Guide from the TomTom Developer Portal and am still confused. It must be possible to retrieve routes, since the Map App can display turn-by-turn directions. How can I retrieve turn-by-turn data that I may display as a route within my own application?Thanks Michael. Apologies for the slow reply I was away for a bit (holiday blitz at work and visiting family madness etc.etc.) back now, I set both options you requested to "never " and retried the CMS software with no change.
I do have progress of a sort though, as a test I took a separate test PC and put a clean install of Win7 on and loaded up the CMS software (it worked perfectly) and then took the version of ole32.dll off that machine and put it onto the computer I had built
for her (using Linux) and...
got a new error code. Darn I was so sure I had found a clever solution this time lol.
Anyway now when the CMS fails it gives me a similar error but the offending module is "ntdll.dll" sooo... I tried taking the "working" version of ntdll.dll from the test box and moving it over (making sure to back up the existing ones
first so I could put them back if needed) to her new PC and the PC would not boot.
It seems to want the original versions of a few Dynamic Link Libraries and if I could somehow give it those while not breaking Win7 it should theoretically work seeing as it no longer errors with ole32.dll.
ntdll.dll however seems necessary for Win7 to boot.
So what I am wondering now is:
Is there some way to have both versions of the DLL file in the system32 folder (bypassing the "cannot have two files with the exact same name in the same folder" thing) or rename the original DLL's something else and somehow make the CMS look for
the new named versions so the system has the updated DLL's it needs to boot/run and the CMS has the old ones it wants to run or is there someway to have a self contained install of the CMS, say on a USB flash drive and give it it's own E:/windows/system32/needed
dll's path to the files it needs?
Willing to try any other options or settings you may have come up with as well.
Thanks again for your reply and my apologies for not answering sooner. -
Although I have been using Google Maps App in India for a while now (without any issues) but I still want to know if there are any plans for launching Turn by Turn Navigation under the OOTB Map App for iOS?
It has been quite a while since Apple came up with Map App of their own and should be releasing improved maps with more capabilities in India.
Cheers!
AbhishekNo one here can answer your question, as there is no one from Apple here, & no one here represents Apple or speaks for Apple.

I updated my iPhone to the new IOS6 and my awesome Google map app was replaced with the sucky, horrible, awful Apple map app. I want my Google navigator map app back!!!!!!
I agree. I liked the previous map app. The version 6 app is powered by tomtom, I think. No more street view. I don't care for the new overhead view when dropping a pin. Plus, the current map app doesn't have the local points or data base that the google maps app had. Too bad I can't go back to the old map app.

N900 and Voice Navigation / New OVI Maps
s much as I love my N900 it is so frustrating to walk into a T-Mobile store here in the US and find that the simple Nokia Nuron has much newer version of Ovi Maps. While Nokia is busy launching voice navigation for the N97's and such, the N900 is left waiting in the wings. Does anyone have any news regarding when Nokia will again turn their gaze back to what is supposed to be their flagship device?
Not only does Nokia not support Ovi Map downloads on the N900...it also does not support Native Video calls and sending of photos/Video via MMS...sent a note to their support careline..and the reply below was what I received...:-(( This is NOKIA's FLAGSHIP product with 2 cameras and they do not support Video Calls....why launch a product with 2 cameras which does not do Video calls...Hope someone from NOKIA is reading this tread..don't launch products when it is NOT ready .... extreemely dissappointed...might have to consider other brands of phone for my next phone purchase.
