Navigation

VZ Navigator provides spoken directions with audible prompts that play back automatically as you approach a turn giving you adequate time to change lanes. If you miss a turn or change your route, VZ Navigator will automatically supply new directions. Without returning to the main menu, you can look for local businesses along the route or at the destination, and send any step of the route as a place message to another mobile phone with VZ Navigator.

New! Now enhanced with 3-D Maps

Maps

VZ Navigator's Maps let you view a map of your current location, another address, an intersection, an airport, a recent location, or a bookmarked location. Using keys on the phone you can easily move around the map with pan, tilt, and zoom functions. You can scroll to a place on the map, search for a business nearby, or request a route to that location. You can save that location on a map as a favorite and give it a name for future reference.
