Afteryou download an area, use the Google Maps app just like you normally would. If your internet connection is slow or absent, your offline maps will guide you to your destination as long as the entire route is within the offline map.

Offline maps that you downloaded on your phone or tablet must be updated before they expire. When your offline maps expire in 15 days or less, Google Maps tries to update the area automatically when you're connected to Wi-Fi.


With offline maps in iOS 17 and later, you can use Maps for information and navigation even when you don't have a Wi-Fi or cellular connection. Offline maps include details like hours and ratings on places, turn-by-turn directions for driving, walking, cycling, or riding transit, and estimated arrival times.


Offline maps do not sync across your devices. Offline maps are only available in select areas. An offline map for a specific region is not intended for use in all regions. Features vary by country and region.


HERE WeGo is a free mobile application and journey planner designed to support your travels, from simple commutes to complex multi-modal trips. With WeGo, you can plan and perform optimal routes effortlessly, using your preferred mode of transportation.


From multi-stop guidance to dynamic estimated time of arrival (ETA) calculations that consider live traffic updates, every aspect of your journey is carefully considered. And don't worry about an internet connection. Thanks to the app's offline capability, you can navigate confidently with or without internet.


Get real-time updates on traffic conditions and dynamic ETA calculations, including intuitive maneuver prompts with voice commands in multiple languages. Leverage spatial 3D sound, lane assist and speed limit warnings for a stress-free and efficient navigation experience, both online and offline.


No internet? No problem. With WeGo, you can download maps of countries and regions prior to your trip, ensuring access to navigation even without a network connection. Whether you're navigating remote areas or avoiding expensive roaming charges abroad, WeGo makes sure you can always explore with ease.


Stay informed with global speed limits displayed throughout your route. Set custom speed restrictions to match your vehicle's capabilities and receive warnings if you exceed them. Stay alert about speed cameras along the way (with varied availability) and enjoy accurate estimated times of arrival for a smooth journey.


Planning your entire journey has never been easier. WeGo gives you a comprehensive view of your entire trip, including walking times from your starting point to your vehicle and from your parked spot to your destination. The app also remembers your parking location to provide accurate ETAs for a seamless commute.


No personal user data is collected without the explicit user consent. You can withdraw your given consent at any moment if you wish to do so. HERE welcomes the users to share certain data in order to provide a better service, and offers users to consent to it. Even when consent is given, all collected data used in services is fully anonymized and can't be tracked back to individuals. Users can request the removal of all collected personal data in the app.


Some features may require the use of a HERE account, such as when you want to synchronize your Collections. You can also continue using other features of the service without signing in. When you sign up for a HERE account, we collect your name, email address, date of birth and country of residence. Once you are logged in with your HERE account, we automatically try to synchronize your recent searches and the collections associated with your HERE account.


The service makes use of information about your actual location ("location data") and places ("place information"). Location data reveals where you currently are or where you have been. Location Data is based on available positioning methods, such as Assisted GPS. In many device models, the user interface of the Service identifies the use of positioning with an icon. Place information is general information pertaining to particular geographical locations (ie, a city of the location of a restaurant) which you provided to us in your Collections, for example. Unless otherwise stated, we use random identifiers in connection with your location data that do not identify you personally. When you start to use the service, the applicable service activates your selected positioning methods to retrieve your current location. The service may send your location data to HERE when you use location-enabled features of the service online, such as asking for information about nearby services or offerings, using search features, as well as when the service asks for new maps for new areas you previously navigated to. The location data may be collected when you use the traffic feature for service improvement purposes without identifying you personally. Place information may be sent to HERE, for example, when you synchronize your collections.


Turning on 'Traffic' allows the app to send HERE information about your ride (ie, your car's location, the directions of travel, etc). We combine this info with what other drivers have sent to provide you with better and faster routes.


Rest Areas are public facilities available on highways or motorways where drivers can take a break. You can usually find gas stations, restrooms and/or places to buy food in these areas.If you open the WeGo app, drag up the bottom bar and select 'Settings', you'll find a toggle switch for the 'Rest Areas' functionality. Once turned on, the app will start showing the rest areas available on your way (if any), especially when you're driving on highways.When the app shows the rest area icon, you can click on it and add it as a stop on your route.


We work hard to keep the maps as current as possible but as data constantly changes around the world, some of these changes can take a while before they show p in our maps. Please, use the 'Suggest an edit' option when you'd like to report issues about outdated POI information in our maps. If you'd like to report any other issue, please send an email to appsu...@here.com with more details or use the Map Creator tool.


Quick tip: Downloaded maps do expire. According to Google, you have up to 15 days after you dow load it before it's automatically deleted. Make sure you update the directions on Google Maps during that time frame.


You can find downloaded Google maps within the app's Offline Maps section. By tapping into the listed offline maps, you'll have the option to delete them, rename areas (via the edit function), or update them.


First off, you won't download all of Google Maps in its entirety. Instead, before your trip, you'll want to download a specific area, which could be a city, county or region where you'll be spending time and might not have service on your phone.


To download a map in Google Maps offline, open the Google Maps app on iOS or Android and tap your profile picture on the top right (you must be logged in to your Google account for this to work). In the menu that appears, tap Offline maps > Select Your Own Map.


Use your fingers to place the map you want to download within the confines of the rectangle border. Use one finger to move across the map, and a two-finger pinch to zoom in and out. As you move around the map, you'll see how much storage space the download will take up on your phone. Once you're happy with the area, tap Download.


Note: Alternatively, you can type a city or other area into Google Maps and then hit the Download button that appears in the pull-up window to download the map offline, but this only works on the iPhone.


You must be connected to Wi-Fi to download the map. If you want to download over cellular, go to the Offline maps page, tap the gear icon on the top right, tap When to download offline maps and select Over Wi-Fi or mobile network. Once your map is downloaded, you'll be sent back to the Offline maps page, where you can see all your offline maps.


Now you'll be able to use Google Maps even when you're offline in the area you downloaded -- and in that area only. You won't get extremely accurate travel times or alternate route options because traffic and other road issues are not accounted for, but you will get a general ballpark idea of how long your trip should take. Transit, bicycling and walking directions are also not available offline -- only driving directions.

Based on free offline maps from OpenStreetMaps project, Navigator offers intuitive turn-by-turn voice navigation in different languages with many useful features, e.g. speed limits, camera warnings, favourite routes and places, POI, lane guidance, different routing modes (car, bus, truck, pedestrian, bicycle, motorcycle, motorhome, caravan or camper), 2D/3D mode, night/day mode, optional live traffic feature and more.
