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 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.
When your VIA starts after sleeping and you have a route planned, you are shown the guidance view
with your current location.
1. Switch view button. Select the switch view button to change between the map view and the
guidance view. When in guidance view, if you are driving, the small arrow rotates to indicate your
direction of travel relative to north, with north being up.
2. Zoom buttons. Select the zoom buttons to zoom in and out.
Tip: On some devices you can also pinch to zoom in and out.
3. Instruction panel. This panel shows the following information:
The direction of your next turn.
The distance to your next turn.
The name of the next road on your route.
Lane guidance at some junctions.
