About Locations
Search for places of interest, get directions to places you want to go to, and drive
using turn-by-turn GPS navigation with Locations. Locations is also your perfect travel
companion, whether you’re at home or when you’re in a different country. With
Locations, you can download maps beforehand so you don’t have to worry about
having an Internet connection while on the road or costly data roaming charges when
abroad. Have your map ready before you start your journey.
If you are in an area where there are a lot of surrounding buildings, Locations may
have a hard time pinpointing your location.
HTC Sensation comes with an installed map, which depends on the country where you
bought it. Don’t worry, you can download other maps when you need them.
