Improving Nokia Lumia Navigaation



The Car navigation App was recently updated with the possibility to save locations, like your home, or the place you parked your car. This is a significant improvement; however, it would be even better if it could sync with the places stored in the on line Maps application. These saved locations can be pinned as tiles to the start view. You can change the names or delete them by pressing long on the saved location.



 I still miss information on petrol stations and the like in the off line mode. This would be of great help when driving abroad. For example, during my last trip in Holland I needed a petrol station and I could not  find any on Nokia Drive in offline mode.  the ability to create and store routes would be a welcome feature.

Another App worth mentioning is Creative Studio; it is free and can do all kinds of funny thing with your pictures. The best thing I noticed was that is able to create panorama images, and functions much better that the AutoPanorama application.
