I had never tried HERE maps before but apparently there seems to be a lot of buzz about the new beta in Google Play store. So I fired it up in the browser and it's pretty neat and I was actually impressed. I went into the about section to see this!!



So they are actually working on a BlackBerry 10 version and I do hope its for real. Will be a huge upgrade from the stock option!

Really Nokia work on a here maps option for BB ? I don't believe. In 2015 they want to create a apple variant but I don't see sow much interes in BlackBerry. This is the only,reason that keep me on Microsoft side. Ok two reason Nokia brand on my phone and here maps.

I think if they do make one they will make a native one. From what I have read, this comes from the Nokia which wasn't acquired by Microsoft (not sure if that's right) , the Nokia which is doing software and services for the major part and Here maps is their project. So I won't be surprised if they actually release a native one.

This is about Web version not app

Posted via CB10

They would have mentioned the browsers if it was the web version not the mobile platforms right?

It's definitely the Web version.
If for the app, windows phone has the original one, with most features, yet it's "experimental "

You are right: Here is product of independent Nokia company.
You are wrong: "...the Nokia which is doing software and services..." Nokia main business is producing devices for mobile infrastructure.

Hints why this is only the web app:

• you see this from the browser, not from the app
• there's no app for ios yet it says ios 5 supported
• it says android 2.3 supported while the app has 4.1 minimum
• firefox os that means web app
• windows phone experimental - windows phone has the best, most complete app, how can be experimental
• before the "app" was just a web view over the website, then they removed it from the bad reviews

Install and try NMaps from BBW. HERE Maps.

Excellent. U can register and sign in too.

I've been using this for quite some time now and as far as I'm concerned it works perfectly on my Q10, despite the "experimental" caveat. Yes, it is a web app but it has the useful facility to download and store a map area such as your local city on the device. This reduces lag, speeds up navigation and cuts the amount of network data you use while on the move.

Hopefully the remaining part of Nokia that produces "Here" (which wasn't sold to Microsoft) will now produce dedicated cross platform navigation applications. Here really is the gold standard in mobile navigation. No one else comes close... especially BlackBerry

Oh ok! Thanks for clearing that part!

I see your point(s). Damn! Had my hopes high for a moment there!
