Re: Navigon Now Not Working?

2013-07-29 Thread Patrick Neazer
Good morning Eileen and all:

I used Navigon last evening out in California and it worked as it should. I 
mention that not to let the list know I am doing something wonderful in 
California. I mention that only because it is not the state I usually use 
Navigon in and so it is working even though I am on the move.

Does it completely lock up? What iPhone are you using? did you purchase the 
quarterly map updates? sometimes when it wants me to update maps it sometimes 
appears locked … what is really happening is that the OK and cancel buttons are 
hiding somewhere at the bottom of the screen and I have to fish around for them 
:).

I am sure telling you that it works on my end while it might not work on yours 
is just what you wanted to hear :). if you could provide a few more details, 
possibly we could be of more assistance.

Hopefully some of the information in this email proved of use to you. Please 
let us know.

take good care and I wish you enough.

Re: Navigon Now Not Working?

Hello,
The app that is in question is Navigon Now. This app allows one to type in 
the address in an edit field, and then towards the bottom is a button to launch 
Navigon. The purpose of Navigon Now is to input all the necessary data into 
the correct edit fields when entering an address. Navigon itself is working 
just fine. Navigon Now speeds up the process when entering an address. I hope 
this clarifies the app that I am having problems with. Oh by the way, I am 
using an iPhone 4, running iOS 6.1.2.

Navigon Now Not Working?

2013-07-29 Thread Esther
Hi Eileen,
I don't think the Navigon Now app works any more.  If you read the app store 
reviews sorted by date, the last consistent batch of positive reviews were at 
the end of March.  Many comments elsewhere say that this stopped working after 
one of the recent Navigon updates.  I always get Failed parsing address 
messages when I try to use it. Instead, I'm using a similar app called 
NavAssist Navigation App Helper that was released in 2011, and that still seems 
to work.  NavAssist can send addresses to either Navigon or TomTom, but it no 
longer seems to be sold in the App Store..

One reason for using Navigon Now in the past was that Navigon didn't correctly 
parse addresses selected from your contacts, especially when they included 
modifiers like room or suite numbers, and I don't think that's a problem now. 
So you can select contact addresses directly from within Navigon by choosing 
contacts in the list from the more tab (5 of 5).

Another app that I like to use as an alternate way for sending addresses to 
Navigon is the Where To? app for POI selection. You also have the option of 
selecting from your contacts in Where To?, either to set the location for your 
POI searches, or to directly send a contact address to a routing app like 
Navigon, or TomTom, Motion X GPS Drive, Garmin, etc.  I like the fact that I 
can also use Where To? to send addresses to public transportation apps like 
Hop Stop, whereas the same process is very clunky from AroundMe.

Double tap the search button of Where To. If you have just launched the app, 
focus will be on this button ( in the top left corner). In the search field, 
where VO says search or address, flick right to the button and double tap.  
Your contacts should become available and VO should announce choose a contact 
to search near.  Then access your contacts as usual: you can use the table 
index at the right side of the screen, or flick to the search field to type in 
part of a name to search. If there is more than one address, such as for home 
and work, double tap to select the one you want to use.   Otherwise, if there's 
a single address, you'll be taken directly to a Where To screen that is a map 
mode display view. To send this address to routing apps, do a four finger tap 
on the bottom half of the screen to move to the add button in the bottom 
right corner, and double tap.  You'll be on a screen listing Routing Apps 
which will list those on your iPhone, and then other that are available fro the 
App Store, along with their rating and purchase price. Flick through to the 
name of the app you want to use, such as Navigon MobileNavigator, Maps, Hop 
Stop, etc., and then flick to the Route button for that app and double tap.  
Your selected routing app will lainch with the address loaded.  For example, if 
I've loaded in the address for a doctor and double tapped the route button for 
Navigon, that app will launch, and if I flick right I'll find the Start 
navigation button.  A further flick right announces the name of the contact, 
followed by latitude and longitude, then street address.

If you want to launch a second contacts search from the last screen in the 
Where To? app, the search button will be in the top right corner.  Now if 
you've double tapped on the search button and flick right in the search 
field, the button will be labeled bookmarks.  This still gives you access to 
your contacts if you double tap, just as before, although it's a little weird.

The Where To? search button can also be used to type in a business name or 
address, so if you find that when you're in the search field, and there's no 
additional button to bring up contacts, usually because you previously used 
this field to type in a search entry, or if the only button that's announced 
when you flick right  is for clear text, flick right past this button and the 
cancel button to search address and double tap. Then flick left back to the 
search filed and a button for contacts should be there.

HTH.  I like the  Where To? app's POI selections, so I use this more for POI 
searches than the Navigon features.  And, as you can see, you can also use 
Where To? to select addresses from your contacts and send them to Navigon 
without having to type them in.  The additional bonus is that Where To? can 
send addresses to all your other navigation apps, too, and even to public 
transportation apps like Hop Stop.  Plus, I've always liked the fact that if I 
use Where To? To search for a POI, and use list view for results (e.g., the 
list button above the home button at the bottom of the screen), that Where 
To? announces the direction and distance to the POI, and updates this as I 
walk.  So maybe you can use this as an alternative to Navigon Now?

Cheers,

Esther

Hi Esther, 

You are awesome. I will make sure that I copy and paste all of this info
into a word doc for future reference until I get use to using Where To Go.
I do have the app on my phone, but I have usually opened Around Me to do
my searches for POIS. This is so helpful. Thanks again and I will begin
working with Where To Go to make it my choice of app to send addresses to
one of my many GPS apps. 

Cordially,

RE: Navigon Now Not Working?

2013-07-29 Thread Esther
Hi Eileen,

Glad I could  help.  Let me give the full name and URL of the Where To? app I 
was describing as an alternative to using Navigon Now,  since there's another 
(different) app named Where To Go?
• Where To? -- GPS Points of Interest (currently $2.99) by FutureTap GmbH
https://itunes.apple.com/nz/app/where-to-gps-points-interest/id314785156?mt=8

I also use AroundMe, and in some ways its searching options are simpler.  But 
since the switch to iOS 6, I've found it to be much clunkier to use it for 
sending addresses to a GPS navigation app. And I find the category breakdowns 
for POIs in Where To? more helpful.

Raul posted recently about using HopStop as a free public transportation 
navigation app:
• HopStop for iPhone

Here's the link to my follow-up post describing how to send destinations from a 
POI search in  Where To? to HopStop, and why using AroundMe for the same task 
was so much clunkier.

(Basically, you can get routed to the Maps app, but only with the option for 
walking or driving.  In order to get public transportation options, you have to 
back out and cancel to change your navigation options, and it's not as simple 
to send your address to such a wide range of navigation apps easily, compared 
to using Where To?.  This wasn't an issue before iOS 6, but now I find Where 
To? much easier to use for sending addresses to navigation apps than AroundMe.)

Cheers,

Esther

Navigon Now Not Working?

2013-07-28 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello List,
I was wondering if anyone has used Navigon Now recently. I attempted to use it 
today, but when I went to launch it to Navigon to begin the navigation, it just 
hung and wouldn't open it. I haven't had a chance to delete it from the phone 
and install it again to see if it would fix it. Any advice would be greatly 
appreciated, as it speed up the process when putting in an address into all of 
the edit fields in Navigon.
Thanks.
Eileen
