Here Maps (Here WeGo)

Here Maps (Here WeGo) is an navigation application and  Web mapping service originally developed by Nokia. Initially Nokia released the application for windows phones and web in 2014. And thereafter it was released for Android and iOS.  Nokia sold Here Maps division  to Here Global B.V.  (Group of German Auto maker companies including- BMW, Daimler and Audi) on 7th. Dec 2016. On 27th July 2016 Here Maps was rebranded and updated as Here WeGo and first update was launched for Android. Currently available offline in 132 countries. During offline navigating Here Maps is less space consuming than other Maps applications. In term of offline working Here Maps is perfectly easy and provides accurate informations. On Here Maps you can avoid roaming charges  and battery drainage hurdle using offline maps. Offline Map of California is just 536 MB so we can say Here is less space consuming navigating application. Lack of offline navigating service on Google Maps filled up by Here Maps. Users can download offline map for entire country.  Another big thing is that Here Maps support voice navigating service along with travel guide , Real-time traffic data (for 50 countries)  and route planning. Here Maps is a nice travel guide. On Here WeGo users can manage and rename their favourite places and destinations as ‘Collections’. Here WeGo also provide some indoor venue maps of public places  like Airports , Railway stations and malls. For the purpose of 3D mapping Nokia acquired Earthmine and its effects are quite impressive. Here is undoubtedly the king in term of Street View. By the way the resolution of photography is less than some competitors. Traffic informations on Here WeGo are clearer and better sourced than Google Maps and Apple Maps. Informations about public transport are also better than Google Maps.
