Nov 12, 2024 8:21 PM

  Until now, you had to switch to a different app, like Google Maps, for turn-by-turn directions when navigating routes within the onX Offroad app. Now, onX Navigation brings turn-by-turn directions, both audio and visual, within the app, even when off-grid and far away from cell service.

  “We are thrilled to offer our users a solution that allows them to explore confidently without relying on external tools. With onX Navigation, our users will have a more integrated, reliable, and enjoyable experience, helping them focus on the trail ahead and the adventure at hand.

  With the addition of turn-by-turn voice commands, they can stay focused on the trail when conditions and terrain go from easy to extreme, or the weather comes in and reduces visibility, said Val Zolyak, onX Senior Product Manager.
