Speaking of spoken turn by turn directions, I loaded a route into my phone the other day using Google Maps. I was at home and on Wi-Fi when I did it. I forgot that cellular data was turned off and began my 30 minute trip. I had spoken turn by turn directions for the entire trip. I discovered that data was off when I went to create a new route to another destination and was told to turn data on.
I already knew that Google loaded a map of the requested route into the device but didn't think that the audio for that trip would be loaded. It was a very pleasant surprise indeed. I'm also guessing that this would work as long as you don't go too far off of the planned route. Now, this has me curious. If I had an iPod touch with an external gps receiver, would I have the same result? Someone might try it some time to find out.

I have used maps in voice guidance turn by turn directions mode. In iOS 7, maps switches between walking and driving mode on anything higher than a for S. It works for me on an iPhone five.

If so, are there specific settings that I need to attend too? Also, is it true that the 5S will automatically choose the correct mode whether driving or walking?
