MapQuest for iPhone has received a significant update bringing clearer on-map directives for in-route navigation, more info on points of interest, hotel bookings, upcoming events, and more.
MapQuest is your go-to app for live maps, GPS, voice navigation and live traffic updates. Whether you’re running a quick errand across town or taking a road trip across the country, MapQuest has the trusted directions and traffic info you need for stress-free navigation. Our app can route you around accidents, help with multi-stop directions and even has alternate routing capabilities, robust bookmarking options, and handy sharing features. MapQuest is here to help get you where you need to go, wherever life takes you.
With the MapQuest App, you can:
● Activate our membership-free roadside assistance directly from the menu and help you in the event of lockout, flat tires, fuel delivery, towing, and more.
● Get voice-guided turn-by-turn navigation walking or driving directions.
● Have peace of mind knowing we’re using the latest traffic data. Live traffic updates and automatic re-routing will help you get there on time.
● Choose from up to three different driving routes (when available) to get you to your destination most efficiently. We’ll take traffic, road closures, and more into account so you can choose the most optimal route.
● Impress your boss, family, and friends with an on-time arrival with our ETA (estimated time of arrival) and location sharing features.
● Bookmark your home and work addresses so you can find your way to either at the push of a button.
● Quickly search for nearby points of interest in your favorite categories like coffee, restaurants, gas, and more with our industry-first layers bar!
● Advanced search uses your contacts, recent searches, top categories, and nearby points of interest to help you find your destination faster.
● Save a few bucks when you click on nearby gas stations and view and compare their current gas prices.
● Browse menus and order food through our GrubHub partnership.
● Find a place to rest your head. Explore the area and book a nearby hotel directly from the app!
● Read Yelp reviews, pricing, and more on the go.
What's New In This Version:
• In-route navigation has never looked better! Get a heads-up on your next turn with a clearer on-map directive. In addition, the new and improved list view for your route automatically scrolls the now bolder turn-by-turn statements with your progress so the next maneuver is always easy to see.
• Knowledge is power! Learn more about a point of interest (POI) with the new, “Nice To Know” section from Yelp. Tap on a POI, then “more”, and “Nice To Know” on the POI details to expose information such as whether credit cards are accepted, wifi availability, ADA accessibility, kid-friendly options, and more.
• Make hotel booking a breeze. Simply select a hotel POI and tap “More…” to view amenities, check in/out times, availability, and book your stay directly from the app.
• Take a night off! View upcoming events at your favorite venues and buy tickets directly in our app.
• Can’t find what you’re searching for? Send us feedback directly from the search feature so we can improve your experience in the future.
• Make your MapQuest app ads-free in 2015! Renew or purchase for $3.99.
• We’re starting the new year off right with tons of squashed bugs and subtle enhancements. Enjoy!
You can download MapQuest from the App Store for free.
