Top 3 Sat-Nav Apps for Caravan Holidays

In Towsure Outdoors Blog 0 comment

For any caravan owner, getting lost when you are trying to start you holiday is a real nightmare. In fact, low bridges and narrow lands can cause problems and so finding a suitable route is crucial.

This is where Sat Nav’s come in because they offer different routes to suit the needs of caravan owners making it almost impossible to get lost or even stuck in traffic. Here's our thoughts on what are currently the best 3 sat-nav apps available.

Tom Tom GO Mobile App

Tom Tom know what makes a good Sat Nav because they have been doing it for long enough and this app proves just that.

The app allows drivers to plan a route in advance which means they can avoid roads that may cause them problems. Go can be installed on Android devices and Apple devices for free which includes all features. It will alert you to speed cameras and traffic but the free version only offers 50 free miles a month. A yearly subscription is £14.99 while a three year subscription is £34.99.

Navmii

Once known as Navfree, Navmii is an app that works extremely well. Traffic alerts, accidents and hazards are all provided through crowd surfing and there are also additional features that can be downloaded such as maps and voices.

This app works across all devices which means that caravan users with iOS, Android, Blackberry or Windows device will be able to use this useful app for absolutely nothing!

Google Maps

Everyone knows about Google maps and if your phone doesn’t have it, it can be downloaded free of charge.

Even though this is free, Google have got it right yet again and it can certainly be used as a main Sat Nav app. The app can be used by drivers, cyclists, public transport users and even pedestrians which means that it does lack some of the more important features that other apps offer, however, this can get you to where you want to go with very few problems.

Traffic data is available but one of the main downsides is the fact that it does need live data signal to work.

If you'd rather a system built solely to help you navigate the roads, take a look at the Avtex Campa 660 Sat Nav, which has built-in caravan-specific features.02/09/206
