This is awesome. I was a member of the BETA group and I love the integration.
Now BB has free, organic voice navigation.
During the beta period I enjoyed how it easily allowed for ETA sharing and how it allows BBM Music to continue playing but the voice nav comes through over and above the music so you get to continue the beat and get the directions. Everything seems good to me. If you get a call, they both stop and they both resume after it.
Thanks. Looking forward to trying it out. The UI is horrible and it needs to be integrated into BlackBerry Maps...but at least it's an accurate audible turn by turn that's free.
Ever since Garmin delayed their upgrade to handle neweer OS7 devices, user have been left without a Nav-Voice app. I hope this works well - Garmin was super.
Like the OP been using the beta version for a bit now. This remains my favorite traffic app. ATT does not integrate BB Maps so no loss. The traffic predictions are pretty good (better than others tried by me) and the voice directions are excellent in my metropolitan area. We have the app installed on 2 of the 3 family BB phones. Thank you, RIM.
Does anyone else get a glitch where if you're playing music it stops the music but dorsn't resume it? This just started happenning to me and I can't figure out what started it (same thing happens when email notification comes through, but only started afteer upgrading Traffic and Twitter. Curve 9360 with .530)

Yeah, but it's free. I don't know if there is any other free turn by turn voice nav app that is independent of the operating system, other than life in pocket. I don't think iphone has one.

I just installed it but I have one problem. I have no icon for BB traffic. Does this just automatical sync with maps? There is an option in Maps to Add to BB traffic. Do I put my directions in Maps or do I add to BB traffic and then put in my directions? Kind of confusing.

You should have a stand alone icon for bb traffic, but you shiuld also be able to ooen bb traffic through bb maps.
