INTRODUCTION You have chosen a cutting-edge navigation system. Please enjoy using it. This navigation system leads you straight to your destination, whether you are travelling by car or on foot. You can navigate and plan your route with an easy to use and intuitive interface, just by using your finger. You can also use this application to plan your trip to suit your personal preferences and interests and to find and save interesting destinations before you set off on your journey.
