Try Waze also dude
Not free but NDrive works the best on my Xperia X10 Mini Pro.
Offline maps, turn-by-turn navigation.. All I could want with a nice UI.
TomTom...I am waiting for you soo loong, it's the best.
ndrive is best
In Polish - Naviexpert but its not free and works only in online mode

Google Navigation does not have turn-by-turn voice guidance..
For really simple GPS software i use rmaps with google offline maps. (to see where am i)
For navigation i use navigon ( not free)
I wanted Navigon but downloading maps was horribly slow so I tried NDrive and it looks great, it does everything I need (although I haven't tested it yet very much).

I use Copilot but can't find a decent (free) keyboard that will work, the stock keyboard is less than useless
Offline mapping I use osmand (open street map android). I have downloaded the maps using tangogps (linux app) onto sd card and then used on phone. (had to add .png.tile to the .png to use) You need to change settings to use the same map files and storage locations. The POI's work very well, banks, food, transport etc. nav is not really workable in Sydney (tries to fit 5 Million pop city onto mini too much data!)

Hello guys, as the title says, I'm looking for a good and accurate offline gps navigator.. I live in Singapore..

I believe for europe the best is iGO.
Yes,it's the best for me.
Sygic, better than Google navigation and map
Igo,Sygic,Ndrive,Papago ---> can't tracking
Navitel ---> can do a tracking
One negative thing about Navitel is...we can't enter UTM coordinates (so we have to convert it first ) ----> I miss Garmin
question:
is iGo run with any lag ?
for me it's laggy a litle bit
I have lag too
Igo works without lag. MiniCm and 710 OC

I prefer CoPilot, definitely better than iGo, much more functions, and customizations, and the map from navteq is the best on the market for my country (Croatia), (i know iGo also have maps from navteq - but they are not identical), that's only my opinion...
I agree - CoPilot!
Sygic is the best i think. Fast, smart, and easy to set it. Btw its basic datas requires much free space.
i use IGO and it's very nice you can download maps by torrent ;0)
Navigon is the one for me. I've got the Europe mappack and it always lead me exactly to where I wanted to go ;-)
Navigon is the best of

I think so, too
I'm looking for any recommendations for GPS apps that I can use with no internet connection. Preferably an app that would download the maps locally.
I'm currently using Sygic and I really like it but am curious if anyone has any other suggestions?
Thanks!

The new version of Google Maps has offline support though only for a small area not a whole country yet but if you're not travelling too far at a time you could download each area as you need it.

How could any offline GPS beat sygic besides for price? It almost gives the same features and experience as 'proper' gps units like Tomtom etc.
Plus using sygic on my xoom gave me a better experience using GPS than the TomTom units I have (due to using it on a 10" screen though)

Locus Pro is the best offline GPS App
Sygic is the best that I have found, although the routing can be a little flaky at times. I must say it has improved a great deal in the 2 years I've had it.
Navigon is the best in my opinion, but Sygic is also very good.
Sygic and Navigon both okay, Sygic speed limits way out of date in my area.

I recently purchased Sygic. It seems great, but I have one rather big complaint. Not sure if it's because I am from South Africa. But I can't seem to get the app to navigate to a specific address, eg 149 Field Street. It seems to only be able to take me to Field street and I don't have the option to choose a specific number. Something easily achieved in google maps, and Nokia Ovi Maps.
As you can understand navigating to a street is quite bad especially if it is a big street. Is this the best the app can navigate or is it because I am from South Africa? I've downloaded the local SA maps etc etc.

Definitely a regional problem with the map data. Works fine here.

I have the same screens as what you show, and if I type a number, it also shows only the "Any (start -> end)" field but when I press done, it accepts the number I set (it'd say "Any(149)" in your case I guess and direct you to that number).
I think Copilot is pretty good. It does depend on your region in terms of what maps are available and what works.

Happy with CoPilot here, all of europe. Works well has its own speed cameras and also accepts PocketGPSWorld camera databases.

I like Waze. I use it fairly often. Routing is a little hit n miss sometimes though (although it's getting better) and the crowd sourced hazard/traffic info is an interesting touch.
I *think* you have to have a data connection for routing though so prob doesn't count as offline.

Thanks everyone for the replies! I tried all of the suggested apps and Sygic and Navigon were tops to me. I think Sygic wins out, but I wanted to try others of course.
+1 for Sygic. I dunno what Google was thinking for releasing an offline map function that can't do at least turn-by-turn.

Seconded. PLEASE!!! Market enabler wont help this time for some reason so it would really be much appreciated

It's not that good. Stupid iPhone layout with the menu button out of reach all the way at the top, and it doesn't remember your home sport. I'm not going to upload it, as my TV License fee unfortunately paid for it's development.
me's also looking for this one, as not in the uk either.....
mucho thanks in advance
I take zero credit, and have not tried this yet (not rooted yet) but i see no reason it wont work. This will allow you to use google text to speech for maps, etc instead of the robotic, horrible Samsung voice. Please thank the op in the link!

I hate the Samsung voice crap. I use a app to read my messages when using my Bluetooth but I stopped because I couldn't switch it to Google. But soon I will.
Thanks.

Followed these steps and it worked perfectly. Through the Samsung hub it asked me to download a HD voice and I did but it still sounds robotic. I'm glad I was able to switch it to Google's
Using googles now. Worked great thank you. I hate Samsung's.
