Who doesn’t need a little GPS in their life, especially during the holidays, when you’re going to and fro holiday parties and family gatherings? With its latest update, the Scout GPS Maps by Telenav on Windows Phone 8 devices not only provides voice-guided navigation, but also downloadable U.S. maps (which helps save data usage and keeps you on track when network coverage is spotty).
But this is also an app that will come in handy during your everyday commute. You can also now save and see favorite locations on the map and use live tiles to get to them quickly. Other perks with this app include a home screen that is constantly updated with traffic-based commute times, local weather and nearby places; and nearby places include such gas stations, restaurants and ATMS available with just a tap.
You can also choose from multiple routes, follow step-by-step visual directions and find millions of listings through local search.
Install Scout GPS Maps from the Windows Phone Store for some reassurance when you’re out and about.
