Garmin Mobile XT 4.10.40


Description:
Garmin GPS navigation on your mobile phone.

Make the most of your mobile device with Garmin Mobile. You'll have all of the information you need right at your fingertips. And with no subscription fees to hold you back, you'll be able to stay informed while you're on the go.

Go Anywhere
With no network coverage required, Garmin Mobile XT works anywhere. Simply plug the microSD card(with miniSD and standard SD card converters) into your compatible phone with built-in GPS and go. Since Garmin Mobile XT works outside your phone's coverage area, you'll get directions when you need them most.

Navigate with Ease
Packed with preloaded maps, millions of destinations and full GPS navigation capabilities, Garmin Mobile XT turns your phone into a powerful street navigator. Its intuitive interface greets you with two simple questions "Where to?" and "View Maps." Easily look up addresses and services and get voice-prompted turn-by-turn directions to your destination. Enjoy 3-D mapping and advanced features such as saved routes and tracks, custom avoidances and visible trip logs. With Garmin Mobile XT, you can also upload custom points of interest, such as school zones and safety cameras and conveniently navigate to contacts in your address book.



Get Traffic, Weather and More
Garmin Mobile XT includes access to a wide range of Garmin Online? services such as traffic, weather, gas prices, hotel rates and more. Receive real-time traffic information from traffic.com about traffic tie-ups and road construction that lie ahead on your route and navigate around congestion. View hotel rates, ratings and availability information from hotels.com. Even get the weather forecast for your location or anywhere in the world and compare local gas prices when you travel with your phone. Garmin online is accessed through your phone's wireless data service.

See and Navigate to Users
With Garmin Mobile XT's PeerPoints? feature, you can text message your position to any other phone as well as view and navigate to the location of Garmin Mobile XT users in your group. Simply send your current position via text messaging to your Garmin Mobile XT partner's phone, and your location shows up on your partner's map page. PeerPoints is the perfect feature to keep track of friends and family at an amusement park, lake or other outdoor group activity.
