The application can be used in 4 different modes:
- Default: The default state after the application has launched. The map is displayed with your GPS position locked.
- Free drive: The app mode when you haven’t set any route, but your vehicle is moving above a certain speed. The map is displayed with the GPS position locked in the middle. The search bar and sound and zoom controls are hidden after 3 seconds of inactivity. Tap anywhere on the screen to show them again.
- Browse: This mode enables you to explore the map. Swipe to move, rotate, zoom, or select points on the map regardless of your current position. You can enter the browse mode also during navigation or a free drive. After a few seconds of inactivity, the map view is locked back on your current position.
- Navigation: When the app is navigating you based on a calculated route. The GPS position is locked on your current position.
There are a signpost panel with turn instructions, warning center, widget with POIs along the route for easy access, and lane guidance at important intersections. You’ll see the name of the current street, nearest city, or road number displayed below your current position indicator.
The info bar at the bottom provides more information for the selected route, such as ETA, remaining time and distance, and a progress bar.
