[QUOTE="badshoehabit, post: 1842626, member: 210116"] Forgive me but I don't understand why you bought an iPad for navigation when you can do the same thing on a smartphone. Is it the screen size which made you do that because for car driving, and walking around, it's almost always best to use the voice instructions? Open the app, put in your destination and the means of travel - car/public transport/on foot and app will show you the routes and timings from where you are. You can add one or more stop off points before the final destination. You can get a feel for the screens by doing the same on Google Maps on your computer. For motorways etc, Google will show you the lanes and talk you through which one you should be in for exit or turnings. The screen will highlight the correct lane. The only thing is that sometimes it will say turn left/right when it's merely a bend. If you miss an instruction it will recalculate and usually find another route rather than asking you to turn around. For our many roundabouts, Google will say first exit, second exit, fouth exit, whatever (even if it's straight on), rather than the destination name. At least you already drive on the right - er, left - side of the road! That Nokia phone does not get very good reviews on performance. Some others.
