Nokia Drive 2.0.0.2148 street search abbreviation ...

If I am in Stockholm, Sweden, and want to enter Telefonvägen 28 as a destination, I only have to tap "Telefonv" and the phone suggests "Telefonvägen" as a search result. But if I tap specifically "Telefonv 28", the only hit I get is Telefonvejen in Denmark, over 500 km away.
Another example, the same issue is with Vasagatan 100, also in Stockholm. If I tap "Vasag" it suggests "Vasagatan", but if I tap "Vasag 100", there is no result at all.

Nokia Drive+ Beta maps - please make East Street i...

Nokia Drive+Beta maps, don't know that East Street in Bristol UK, is pedestrianised, until Dean Street junction
Bing maps and Google maps know this - do a search.
Please could Nokia maps be updated to reflect - Drive+ Beta keeps routing me down East Street
Thanks guys

Also David, it seems like you know of this particular traffic arrangement. Wouldn't it just be simpler to use that knowledge? I have a hard time using navigation in the city in which I live; I tend to actually know directions and routes better than it. But that, of course, is just me. All the best to you, mate!

Using Nokia Drive Offline

We've just bought two Lumias (920 & 620), our first Nokias since 2002, and have been delighted with them.
However, I have a concern about Nokia Drive. For a "free" App still in Beta it is excellent but it does seem unusable offline, being unable to find many major roads even in London. Allowing online search is essential to plan a route almost anywhere.
For home country use this is not an issue for most people who have data allowances in their contracts and PAYG top-ups but searching while roaming (and this is when you most often *really* need SatNav) could generate unwanted and unpredictable charges.
I'm travelling to Spain this summer and don't want to get to get stuck somewhere that has no network coverage. My questions are:
* Why is the offline data so poor (yet downloaded maps appear quite detailed)
* Will this problem be addressed any time soon
Might have to dust off the crabby old HTC Kaiser with TomTom this summer.

OK so I agree that you can get the basic street layout in airplane mode.
But I want to be able to get all the data - at very least the street names, and ideally landmark pins - which I don't currently get. Is there any way to control what level of detail is downloaded?

Nokia Drive 3.0 Commute Live Tile

The Nokia Drive live tile does not update at commute time. I have to open app then exit to start screen at which time the live tile updates. When I open the app the second time it will the ask if I want to begin the commute. The live tile should automatically change near the specified commute time.

Nokia ovi maps was a good software with some minor flaws which i had hoped would be solved in the wonderful 'nokia drive' software. Thus i bought a lumia800. Obviously Nokia Drive was only designed so Nokia could claim they have a free navigation software. I think, they hope that after 10 seconds every user will realize, that it is useless and buy 'Navigation Europe' (45€) (which is still not as good as ovi maps used to be.)
You cannot chose fastest/shortest/optimised route, so nokia drive basically always goes for the next motorway, even if it is a major detour and/or takes longer.
If you leave the route it keeps trying to get back on the route, even if your destination is 50 meters straight ahead
destination input is awkward and lacks the option to pick a destination on the map
You cannot chose to avoid toll roads
You can only add a favorite on your current position
You can only add maps country by country
Voice commands with street names are not availablea
Offline search for the simplest things like 'gas station' does not yield useful results - a poi database (like in ovi maps) is not available
And i do not expect that any of the next updates will solve any of these issues, else nobody would buy the navigation europe software.
so as things are now i would recommend to buy any other phone with gps and buy some navi-software. 'free nokia navigation' is not an argument for anything.
So disappointing!

Nokia Drive 3.0: Inaccurate Distances & Drive Time...

Whenever I create a route it shows a much longer drive time than is realistic: for example, my daily commute takes typically 20 minutes, yet the app will forecast 35 minutes! It is only within the last few minutes/miles that the time to go becomes more realistic.
Whereas creating the same route with, say, the AA or RAC route planners, these come up with accurate times.
When a route is saved as a favourite, the distance shown is much less than that shown when the route is actually created & being followed, for example, my daily commute is approx 12 miles in each direction, which is correctly shown when driving the route. However, when I view this route in 'favourites' it shows approx 9 miles which I am guessing is a straight line distance.
Can you please update the accuracy in both cases?

Gps and nokia drive

Hi, i have the new Nokia lumia why is necessary to have data connection to use Nokia drive? I this phone have a god why doesn't work with it. I had a Nokia x6 and Nokia maps it worked perfectly.could you make that Nokia drive works only with god and no with data transfer?
Thanks

With the Lumia 800, even though you can pre-download map data, you can only search online for the moment. I am told this is still work in progress and full offline navigation should be available soon in future updates.

Nokia drive 3.0 unable to sync favorites

Is there a way to sync Drive3.0 Favorites to Nokia account? If not how can I transfer favourites from Nokia Maps ?

It might be me, but if Nokia maps is installed on my Lumia 800 and the favourites are synced and stored on my phone, I would have thought Nokia Maps & Nokia Drive (both by Nokia) apps could access these synced favourites, after all what is the point on having to enter every destination for 'drive' when it's already stored by you in the 'maps' app. This does to things: 1. Annoys people having to enter things twice. 2. Wastes storage space on the phone (even though it might only be a small ammount). Also Nokia maps on my C6 seems more accurate, as I live at number 9 and my C6 says either 11 or 13, but Nokia Drive says number 24. Which is on the other side of the street and 5 houses away. Even my Garmin says number 11. It's. A pitty that all Satnav units and apps could not allow the user to calibrate then to there exact position. E.G. while outside our home, use a calibration option and press cursors until it shows the exact location. From then on everything should be correctly displayed.

[Nokia Drive + Beta] Gas station

Hi,
I think it would be fine to add in Nokia Drive a feature to search for gas station. For instance, my car uses E85 bioethanol, and so if I have to do a long trip, I would like to be able to plan my trip according to E85 gas stations as well.
An idea would be to be able to add how many kilometers we can do with one tank, and so when we plan a trip with the GPS, the GPS will have an option to go from gas station to gas station if needed...
Thanks

Do not see any harm in e-mailing thru' other country's site ..e.g.here as final aim is to put it thru' to Nokia ...Just try and see for any responce ..

Nokia Drive+ Beta for Lumia 920 - WP8

Hi,
I have some questions regarding the use of Nokia Drive (sorry, I came back to WP after several years on Android so too used to using Google Maps).
My questions are:
1. Is there a way to route around what the 'default' route comes up with? For example, I do not want to drive through NYC and would rather drive around it using specific highways that I'm used to using. I know it's further, but it avoid GW Bridge which can be several hours in traffic if not timed properly.
2. Is there any website where I can plan/setup the various trips/routes and then just have it sync back to the phone (this is typically what I do with all my Google's map usage).
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I "try" google maps offline on my Galaxy S 2 and Galaxy Nexus regularly when i am abroad, just as a backup to my N9 which I use as my main navigation device. First problem with google maps is the map data. You can only download a few tiles. The search function and routing dont work very well offline either. Of course there are better paid options but Nokia Maps isn't all that bad for a free solution. The avtual Nokia Maps package is better then the current experience with Maps on the Lumia devices. This is because WP is a new OS for Nokia and they had to start Maps from scratch for this OS and they are still.playing catchup. I was fortunate enough to have a chat with a member of the Lumia Maps team who promised me that the intention is for users to have the same nav experience as other Nokia devices. With the latest beta iteration, they are almost there. Hope they will be there with the final release.

And no one were thinking of starting the development earlier, so that the Lumia navigation had been at least as good as on several years old Symbian when the Lumias were released almost a year ago?
Maps and Drive on my Lumia 920 can now be fully used in Offline mode. You can search for addresses and use turn by turn navigation without the need for an internet connection.

Routing issue with Nokia Drive on Lumia 900

So I finally tried to use Nokia Drive on a real trip (in New Jersey, USA) and I've noticed that the software often seems stuck on returning you to the originally plotted route when you deviate from it, instead of finding the best remaining route based on the new location. I'll give details for my particular trip in case this is a local issue.
We decided to take the NJ Turnpike to route 18 to River Road to Interstate 287 instead of 295 to 206 to 287 as Nokia Drive recommended (the routes are roughly equivalent in travel time, so I don't fault this initial route selection). When we entered the Turnpike, the new route kept trying to get us to 295 until we passed Exit 7 (In reality, past Exit 5 there isa considerable penalty to getting off the turnpike and onto I 295).
Finally, after Exit 7 it decided we should stay on the turnpike and get to 287 directly using Exit 10 (This too is roughly equivalent in travel time, so it was a reasonable suggestion). Once we took Exit 9 to route 18 instead it picked a different route than the one we are familiar with and this is where the biggest problem occurred. The route it suggested would enter 287 North at Exit 7, while the route we took entered 287 at Exit 9. It kept insisting we get back on its rout and get on at exit 7 to the point that when we were about to enter 287 at exit 9, it told us to get onto 287 *south* and take it to exit 7 where we would exit the highway and immediately re-enter it northbound. This is rediculous and should never have been suggested.
Am I right in my assessment that the software tries to stick to the original route instead of calculating a new one on the spot? What possible advantage can there be in doing it this way?
Thanks in advance,
Boris

Here is a quite stupid example on route recalculation and how it tries to return to the route originally suggested. The recalculated route suggests that I turn right, drive a few meters and then make a U-turn. The error is not in map data itself. The other picture shows that turning left is not forbidden.

Nokia Drive questions on Lumia 800.

I bought a Lumia 800 over the weekend as my last phone was about to drive me around the twist. I've been very impressed with the Windows interface and the phone over all.
One of the reasons I went for the Lumia was the Nokia Drive app. I work in field sales and travel the length a breadth of this country so I need a reliable sat nav. Previously I've used CoPilot live on an Android which worked well for me.
This morning I did my first trip with the Nokia Drive app and it worked ok up until a point.
I received a call, no problems answered fine through bluetooth not an issue. HOWEVER when the call ended the Nokia Drive app did not resume/return to main screen. instead I got the lock screen with a very garbled background image.
Hoping the Nokia drive app was running in the background I kept driving but after a few turns it was planly clear that the app had closed. I therefore had to pull over to restart the app. Once I unlocked the screen the app did resume. I was just glad I was making a trip I was familiar with and testing the app functionality.
I take/make a lot of calls while travelling I need a nav app that I do not have to re-setup everytime I hang up a call. Can this be addressed in Nokia drive or can someone suggest an alternative app to use instead?

There already are same issues reported here

Nokia Drive on Windows Phone- the future. What can...

Hi Everyone,
The question is obviously pointed towards Nokia representatives here, but we're all probably interested in, more or less. So:
What can we expect from Nokia Drive (and Maps...) in future? Are we gonna be given back at least the basic functionality of what there was/is in Symbian Maps version?
Precisely, I mean:
- Destination selection basing on tapping the screen + FAVORITES
- Route calculation customization (fast, short etc.)
- Advanced planning, including multiple points on the route
- POI handling in an up-to-date manner (menus and lists of POIs)
- ... integration with ovi.com web service
I'm still hesitating between new Lumias and Android phones and, to be honest, Nokia Drive seems to be the deal breaker for me.
Another reason for asking is that, while we have a lot of info about Nokia Drive 3.0 featuring live traffic and all the magic stuff, that info still doesn't say anything about re-introducting the very basic functions of navi system.
I can imagine that maanny people think the same way and aren't happy with the navigation functionality drop with the WP introduction to Nokia.
Thanks!
Michael

@jamiekt
No reason to assume that they won't get updated 3 - 4 times a year as Nokia Maps upon Symbian OS devices do currently.
