The guidance view
The guidance view is used to guide you along the route to your destination. The guidance view is
shown when you start driving. You see your current location and details along your route, including
3D buildings in some cities.
Note: 3D buildings in guidance view are not available on all GO devices.
The guidance view is normally in 3D. To show a 2D map with the map moving in your direction of
travel, change the 2D and 3D default settings.
Tip: When you have planned a route and the 3D guidance view is shown, select the switch view
button to change to the map view and use the interactive features.
