Google navigation vs Sprint navigation, FIGHT!
- Thread starter Neo3D
- Start date
I use Google. I work for a third party dealer, and even our address hasn't changed in Sprint nav. since we moved in Feb. 2010. Google Nav FTW!
I have used Sprint for years on Winmo because Google would never rotate the map with heading up. When I got my EVO and used Google maps... I unistalled Sprint Nav and would never go back.
I have missed exits so many times trying to get directions from Sprint Nav because of how SLOW it is. And I could spend hours telling you how many curse words I have used trying to get that damn phone system to understand what the hell I am saying...
Please say the address...
"112 Main St Tampa, FL"
OK.. you said... 352 Barn Rd Detroit, MI ..... Say Correct or Go Back
"Go Back"
Ok... Taking you to Detroit, MI
"NOOOO F%$#ING GO BACK"
Ok... Changing route to 756 Rose St, Hawaii"
"WTF NNOOOO F%$#ING GO BACK!!!"

I hope I never see Sprint Nav Again!!!

OMG this is classic LMAO with tears in my eyes!!!!!
i always use the Google Navigation
why...
1.) the sprint navigation app is from sprint and i consider it bloatware
2.) google navigation supports 3D
3.) Google Navagation allows for both foot and mass transit directions on top of the driving directions
4.) google navagation allows for caching of map data
5.) it is from google
6.) many other reasons.....
I've used them both, and while I prefer google when I already know where I'm going, sprint's search is easier. I don't like the voice on google, but it's not the end of the world.
I use google maps...I hate being told directions. I just like seeing where I am andd where I need to turn.
ive been playing with COPILOT LIVE 8 but today had all kinds of issues... it couldnt find my dstination on a couple of routes where my GARMIN GPS did.. its missing POI's and the maps are OLD. also it tell me I am at my destination when I am NEAR it.. I dont want that.. I sent my concerns to COPILOT SUPPORT IN HOPES that they will fix. IF they do fix all my issues, this will me one hell of a less then $10 app.
where can i find google navigation? is it free?
i put sprint navigation on my CM7, it told me to do an upgrade, and put telenav on it,but its a trial for 30days
sprint navigation isnt free anymore?

Google navigation comes with google maps. Look in the market, its free.

Sprint Nav was good for a time. But it's not quite up to Google Nav. Especially not at this point in the game. Last time I used Sprint Nav was about two years ago. Drove me F@$&ing crazy. Was crazy slow to update. Ended up driving past my exit. So for me it's Google Maps/Nav all the way.
The new Sprint navigation app looks nice but I haven't really given it a full test run. One thing I noticed is that it keeps saying "downloading files for first time use" even though it's not my first time launching the app.
Google Nav has been working really well for me...besides when my GPS wants to lose signal due to CM7. But that isn't Google's fault.
