UNIVERSAL APP
Navigation for iPhone and 3G-iPads

TRUE BARGAIN
No hidden costs – no subscriptions

FIRST HYBRID
Online navigation or offline upgrade – it's your choice

REVOLUTION INSIDE
Powered by OpenStreetMap – the most dynamic digital map on the planet

NAVIGATION FOR iPhone AND 3G-iPads
You can use this app on your iPhone 3G, 3GS, 4, or 4S as well as on any iPad/iPad2 with 3G.

NO HIDDEN COSTS – NO SUBSCRIPTIONS
The app itself as well as all in-app purchases have one thing in common: you pay once and forever. There are no timeframes to consider, no subscriptions to keep track off, no trial phases after which the app just stops working.

ONLINE NAVIGATION OR OFFLINE UPGRADE – ITS YOUR CHOICE
You can use this app online without limitations. Yet if you live in an area with spotty reception or want to use it abroad without being charged super-high roaming costs by your mobile carrier, you can purchase installable maps for most countries or entire continents as upgrades from within the app at very low prices.

skobbler is the first navigation app to offer this hybrid capability. This gives you a choice on which maps are worth your devices limited storage capacity. Install and de-install maps as you see fit at any time. You dont have to clog your device with data that youll never use anyway.

LOCAL SEARCH, MAP VIEW, TAKE ME HOME BUTTON, CONTACT LIST NAVIGATION, iPod PLAYBACK
Its all included. And more.

POWERED BY OPENSTREETMAP – THE MOST DYNAMIC DIGITAL MAP ON THE PLANET
skobbler uses the brilliant Open Source project OpenStreetMap as map source. Find out whats already possible based on the input of more than 450,000 mapping enthusiasts around the world. Especially in urban areas, the OpenStreetMap is already the most-detailed digital map.

In some other areas, the map might not be perfect yet though. The good thing: you can help to change that by reporting map errors directly from within the app. Find out more about the OpenStreetMap on www.openstreetmap.org.

The good thing for you in any case: we provide you with regular map updates – at no extra cost!

! Please note that as with all navigation apps, continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. Traffic regulations and current road situations always precede skobblers directions!

Sorry didn't cut it for me (1 star)
I tried this app for 2 months using it in tandem with my normal gps and it did not matter if I picked shortest or fastest route, it was wrong on all counts. Multiple times it wanted me to exit the highway at reststops that don't connect to anything and constantly had me get off at an exit only to tell me to u turn and get back on the highway going in the same direction I had already been going .

Sorry but I have used other free GP

As good as Garmin (5 stars)
Im one of the fortunate ones to have tried this when it was free. I then deleted it because I had paid for one that had all the bells and whistles. Well that turned to be a bust. Which was 35 bucks wasted. I then downloaded mapquest and figured I check out skobbler again. Well after the major update this blows everything outta the water. MP3 controls, landscape and much more. It's as accurate as the stand alone Garmin units. I know this beca

Free and not worth that (1 star)
Does not know where nearby gas stations are located. Map detail is poor unless zoomed in. Routing will take you the slower route. I have not seen anything worthy about this ap.
