User Reviews of HERE WeGo:

As a regular user who switched from old Nokia maps to this app, I found it's been better and better over the versions and updates. I've always liked that the maps are of details, much more details than other maps apps I've tried, for example Sygic, Waze, Navmii, Tomtom, except google maps. It has heaps of small streets like off road ones and those in very rural areas that other maps don't have. Also, it's not a battery drainer compared to Sygic. Great job here maps team!The few improvements I hope the app could have soon/in the future are:1. Zoom icons/button on screen.2. Allow users to click and select destinations directly from the "drive" view. The collections/starred places can be shown in the "drive" view, but they are not something you can just tap and choose to drive to like many other navigation apps. "Tap to select" from the "drive" view can be much more efficient than going to the search panel to type in the names of places then wishing the app can show them up.3. Please give users a choice not having to categorise my "favourite places". I would like to just put all my starred places in one place and also don't really like the way that when I go to check my saved places, the screen will be zoomed all the way out to show me all of the starred places. So very annoying because I would have to zoom all the way in again, just to locate and select the very place I want to go to. 

Maps is more updated than google, offline maps for the Win!! No point having a nav software that only works when there is data, forget google maps offline feature, you have to think to download it and select a region, too much work.And this is always using openstreetmaps!! More freedom a lot of people are updating it. Similar to Apple MapsThe offline feature allows to download not just the area but by country and option is highly visible from the start. That means even if there is no data/signal you are always sure you can navigate out of any area with no sigamal/cellphone/data coverage.I have this  on my phone and Tomtom Go 650 nav device.Please offer an option for paid version/donate button as i want to support the continued development of this app.Add more options to make navigation zoomanble or with bigger fonts and thicker navigation pathway/guide to improve visibility on phone screens!

I absolutely love using Here WeGo, especially when I’m traveling. One of its standout features is the ability to download maps in advance, which means you can navigate seamlessly without needing internet or mobile data—a huge plus when you’re abroad or in areas with poor connectivity.The map accuracy is impressive, and the app ensures you’re using up-to-date information through regular updates. Whether you’re driving, cycling, or simply walking, the navigation is reliable and easy to follow.It’s also incredibly convenient for exploring cities on foot—the walking directions are clear and help you get where you need to go without any hassle. Overall, it’s a fantastic travel companion and a must-have app for anyone who values reliable, offline-friendly navigation.Best of all it’s free !!!
