  Google Maps for mobile is an innovative GPS tracking and navigation software program for your cell phone. Its turn-by-turn audio navigation will help you to find your way around unfamiliar cities, while the GPS tracking will help you to find your mobile phone if it gets lost.
  
  

My Location

• This feature allows you to find out where you are simply by pressing 0 (zero) on your phone. This works whether your phone has GPS or not. If it does have GPS it will give you a pinpoint location good to within a few feet. If it doesn't it will measure the strength of the signal from the nearest cell tower and give you an approximate location to within a few hundred feet.
  
  

Turn-by-Turn Audio Navigation

• Google Maps for mobile allows you to enter your destination by typing it into your phone, or you can also speak to your phone and tell it your destination. Once it finds where you are going to it will give you turn-by-turn audio instructions on how to get there telling you to "Turn Right" or to "Turn Left" along with the street name. You can also ask it to find a specific location; for example, you can say "Find Starbucks" and it will give you the directions to the closest one.
  
  

Buzz for Google Maps

• This allows you to find out what is going on in the city that you're in. You can find concerts, hot spots, street fairs, popular restaurants, bars, even where there is a car accident so that you can avoid traffic jams. This feature also allows you to share your location and what you are doing with friends.
  
  

Google Street View

• This feature allows you to see a specific area at street level. You can rotate the view 360 degrees so that you can see what the area that you are going to looks like. You can also see what the streets look like on the way to your destination so that you can find markers to help you identify where to turn.
  
  

Google Location Search

• This feature allows you to find a specific place that you are trying to find. For example you can type in "bike shop" and Google Maps for mobile will return the nearest bike shop, the address, the phone number, and you can click on a link that will give you the exact turn-by-turn directions.
