Introduction
The Navigation SDK helps you bring map visualization, location search and handling, and driver guidance to your Android application with minimal effort.
It issues visual and audio turn-by-turn instructions and smartly handles events like deviations and traffic jams in the route ahead.
The Navigation SDK is available by request only. Reach out to us to begin your journey with it.
