Nokia’s Featured HERE Maps Coming To Android, Exclusive To Samsung Devices For Now

If any of you have ever used a Lumia mobile, you may have some experience with Nokia’s fantastic HERE Maps app. The application is similar to Google Maps in that features advanced turn-by-turn navigation and downloadable maps. Samsung turns away from Google Maps, embraces Here Maps for it's Galaxy Phones instead!

Nokia announced recently that they would be bringing the app to Samsung’s line of Tizen-powered Gear devices for turn-by-turn pedestrian navigation. However, the fun doesn’t end there as Nokia has announced that HERE Maps will soon be available for Android, although for now it will be exclusive to Samsung devices.

Google Maps are one of the main strengths of Android OS and in an increasingly surprising turn of events, we come to know that Samsung will be using Nokia's Here maps instead of the traditional Google Maps for it's Galaxy phones running Android.

HERE Maps is a fantastic application which has a number of advantages over the competition. Notably, it supports offline navigation using the phone’s built-in GPS, and allows you to download over 200 maps to your device’s local storage. HERE Maps also works seamlessly with Glimpse and they claim all features of HERE Maps will be available in offline mode on Android (except traffic information, presumably).

Dubbed "Here for Android", these maps will be available exclusively for Galaxy devices but in a Beta version when the Gear S smartwatch arrives in stores.
