MyTrails is an Android application that makes it easy and fun to view online and offline maps, and to record and share GPS tracks. It is designed to offer an uncluttered map area, and the smoothest map navigation (drag, pinch-zooming, etc.) on a mobile device.
Once the directions are received from the online service, a new track corresponding to the itinerary is created, and for each manoever a waypoint may optionally be created, which includes the text description of the manoever. These tracks are saved as GPX, and can be manipulated like any other tracks (shown, hidden, forgotted, reloaded), so with a little forethought you can use directions while completely offline.
The safest policy when travelling abroad is to turn off mobile data entirely on your device, in Android's settings. This will avoid any source of bill-shock from applications using data in the foreground or the background. Some of MyTrails' features will no longer work (you will not be able to view maps that are not cached or downloaded to offline maps, you will not be able to normalize tracks and post or download them to track-sharing communities, get directions, etc.), but MyTrails deals with this gracefully (including the ability to defer track activities).
Torque Pro will integrate more intelligent systems for the best and safest driving experience, and it will start with a flexible GPS. Furthermore, it links to Google Map data and allows users to overlay various GPS indicators for a flexible driving or tracking experience. Besides the GPS, the application also tracks all the routes or destinations of the user, thereby saving separate travel logs. The GPS support is large and effective, and it even has a voice assistant to help people have better concentration while driving.
