- Google Maps. The accuracy of Google's detailed road maps is unparalleled, which is helpful if you'd like to plot a scenic route rather than driving on interstate highways or avoid toll routes (where possible).
- Apple Maps. The pre-installed driving directions app for iOS phones, Apple Maps got off to a shaky start when it was launched in 2012. Since then, the company has made significant upgrades to the app and its interface, connecting it with iPhone's personal assistant Siri for seamless directions.
- Waze. Waze has many of the basic features of other mapping tools but adds a social element that is the hallmark of its app. Google bought it in 2013, but Waze had already established itself as the way to crowdsource directions.
- MapQuest. On the Internet since 1996, MapQuest has been surpassed in recent years by competitors like Google Maps and Apple Maps. MapQuest has long had issues with the accuracy of its directions, but recent iterations of its driving directions website are more on target.

To get easy, turn-by-turn navigation to places, use the Google Maps app. Maps shows you directions and uses real-time traffic information to find the best route to your destination.
With voice navigation, you can hear traffic alerts, where to turn, which lane to use, and if there's a better route.
1. On your Android phone or tablet, open the Google Maps app .
2. Search for a place or tap it on the map.
3. At the bottom left, tap Directions. If you touch and hold the button instead, you’ll start navigation and can skip steps 4 through 6.
4. Choose your mode of transportation.
5. If other routes are available, they'll show in gray on the map. To follow an alternate route, tap the gray line.
6. To start navigation, tap Start . If you see “Searching for GPS,” your phone is trying to get a GPS signal. For example, you might be in or near a tunnel, parking garage, or other location where there’s no GPS signal.

1. On your Android phone or tablet, sign in to Google Maps .
