Any navigator will become an absolutely useless device if no navigation software is installed in it. The convenience of using this device, the comfort of the trip and the most optimal travel routes depend on it.
Instructions
Step 1
In fact, the functions of the navigator are reduced to receiving communication signals from the corresponding GPS satellite and calculating the most convenient and fastest way to get from point A to point B. Today, there are many navigation programs on the market, and each has its own pros and cons. One program is good for driving in Russia, the second is convenient to use in Europe … However, you can still choose the best option - the golden mean.
Step 2
Shturmann occupies one of the leading positions in the Russian navigation software market. Until recently, this company produced only pocket GPS-signal receivers without special software, equipping them with Avtosputnik or Navitel. Now the company has grown to release its own program. It is a kind of symbiosis of the Yandex. Probki service and the aforementioned Navitel. This program loads road maps of all of Russia into the navigator and, thanks to Yandex, makes it possible to receive information about traffic jams in your city. An innovation among her kind - Shturmann allows you to see where your friends are now and quickly get to their place of stay.
Step 3
If you use your smartphone as a navigator, then you will undoubtedly love Google Maps. To use this service does not cost you a pretty penny, activate the "unlimited Internet" service. Downloading maps comes directly from the world wide web. The weak point of the program is the inability to choose the best route for travel.
Step 4
Nokia Maps has been developed exclusively for Nokia smartphones and mobile phones. You can download this program for free on the official website of the developer. Its essential advantage is the presence of voice prompts in Russian, while most navigation programs are in English. The disadvantage of Nokia Maps is the low accuracy of maps downloaded to the smartphone.
Step 5
Avtosputnik is one of the most popular navigation programs in Russia. It can be called universal - it can work on both GPS receivers and smartphones. The autosatellite allows you to listen to music while driving, monitor the state of traffic jams, etc. It also has a voice control function, which is undoubtedly very convenient on the road.
Step 6
Navitel Navigator will be preferred by those who rely on reliability: the maps for this program were developed by the Russian Agency for Cartography, so they are highly accurate and are updated quite often.
