Here Maps is now Here WeGo A maps app with the same foundation but with many other tools, functions, and qualities And the fact is that the transformation has done him a lot of good. Now it not only allows you to find directions and be guided to a point step by step and even offline, but is also capable of calculate routes in other means of transport and even show the price of these alternatives.
More than one will hear the name of Here Maps It is the cartography tool of Nokia And yes, Nokia had a great maps app. In fact, Nokia exploited the theme of digital mapping for more than two decades to create its own service. Something like Google Maps The problem is that Nokia lost its position in the mobile market and ended up dismembered, selling its mobile division first to Microsoft and its mapping division later to a conglomerate of automobile companies. Namely: Audi, BMW and Daimler (Mercedes) That is where Here Maps, which had competed against Google Maps in a more than dignified way, it began to lose steam. Now it comes back renewed. With a new name and a different appearance, although what stands out is for the rest of the added functions.
An app to master all means of transport
Here WeGo hits the market again with a design that breaks slightly with the look of Here Maps Somewhat simpler and more minimalist, its maps, colors, and menus help anyone find a destination, a street, or a point of interest. But it's its broader transportation application aspiration that really draws attention. And it is that it no longer only allows you to consult routes by vehicle, on foot or by public transport, now it also allows you to do it by bike, taxi and other collaborative services such as car sharing in Car2Go or BlaBlaCar
Just search for a destination to find all possible alternatives. So, if you're in a hurry, you can skip public transportation and jump directly to the taxi or the collaborative options All this being able to see the price of both the metro or bus ticket, as well as the cost of the taxi rideWithout leaving the application or searching for each case.
Along with this, Here WeGo has gained relevant information for the user compared to the previous version. Thus, it is now possible to be aware of the traffic information in more than 900 cities from all over the world, knowing if there are traffic jams on the roads, but also delays and incidents in public transport. Thanks to this, it also proposes alternatives to avoid these problems. It also completes the information of the bicycle routes with data such as the slope.
In addition, this application does not leave out one of its most acclaimed features when it was still Here Maps Let's talk about thedirections and offline mapsSomething that allowed him to compete head to head against Google Maps while this application activated said function worldwide.
In short, a powerful mapping tool that is here to find your place, renewed and improved to go one point beyond street search. A transport tool that will surely give people talk in the future. Here WeGo can now be downloaded free from Google Play Store and App Store.
