Pervious version 7.1 of MapFactor Navigator brought fullscreen mode and map gestures to navigation for Android Auto as well as searching within POI search results in the phone app. Now, Navigator 7.2 comes with further handy features for both smartphones and Android Auto.
Access all Favourites on Android Auto - thanks to the new search
It is now possible to quickly and easily search Favourites across folders in both the standard app and Android Auto. This is great news for all users, especially those using MapFactor navigation on Android Auto as it solves the Google limitation of only being able to display 6 items on one screen.
Searching countries in Map Manager
Navigator offers map data coverage of more than 200 territories all over the world. Both in the free OSM maps and in the professional TomTom maps. We have now made searching countries from this long list easier and faster.
Android Auto direct map download<
When using navigation on Android Auto, maps can be now downloaded directly from an Android Auto in-vehicle device.
Updated welcome screen with map data selection
As you already know, Navigator supports two types of map data – free OSM maps created by volunteers from all over the world and professional maps created by TomTom. When selecting which provider to use there is now more information to introduce the basic advantages of each set of maps.
Another new feature, based on the suggestions from Navigator users, is the addition of two new types of info panels (time without seconds).
