Navigation apps Mapy.com and NaviExpert update features

Developments in the navigation application market highlight specialized tools for both outdoor enthusiasts and drivers. Mapy.com, a European application with nearly 6 million users, focuses on professional cartography and safety for outdoor activities. Utilizing data from OpenStreetMap and verified by professional cartographers, the app offers offline navigation, route planning, and features such as elevation details and difficulty levels. A premium version provides unlimited offline map storage and specialized tools like HorizontAR for identifying mountain peaks.

In the automotive sector, the Polish paid navigation app NaviExpert has introduced significant updates, including real-time traffic monitoring and route comparison capabilities. While a survey of over 31,000 people shows Google Maps remains the most popular free option in Poland, followed by Waze and Yanosik, paid services like TomTom, AutoMapa, and NaviExpert maintain a dedicated user base through continuous feature improvements.
