HERE Maps beta by Nokia now available for Samsung smartphones

here maps android
Nokia has released their HERE Maps, a clear competitor to Google Maps, for the Samsung smartphones on the Samsung Galaxy Apps Store today. The HERE Maps app is absolutely free for all the Samsung smartphone users.
The main advantage of HERE Maps over Google Maps is that HERE Maps allows its users to access maps offline, which implies no data connection required once you have downloaded the required maps. While Google Maps allows only some segments of its maps to be downloaded for offline usage, HERE took a step forward.
It is expected that Nokia would expand HERE Maps services

New Google Maps for Android and iOS, makes exploring places easy

Google Maps Explore
Starting this week, Google is giving a new Explore option to Google Maps on Android and iOS devices. Whenever users want to discover places around their area, all they need to do is tap on the Explore option to the bottom right corner of the map on the phone’s screen. Users can explore areas other than around them on the map too, so that it makes easier to plan for a vacation or a holiday.
Explore displays places that are nearby to the user; user can set what “nearby” means to him. He can set a place that takes 5 min walk or a 15 min walk as “nearby” and according to the Settings, Explore displays the places around him and it is also very smart to suggest places based on the time of the day and the climate at a given time.
So you don’t have to worry about wandering over to a breakfast spot for dinner or arriving at a park just in time for a thunderstorm. You’ll get the best results when you’re signed in with location reporting and history turned on“, says Taj Campbell in a Google Maps blog post.
