Title:	Free Sat Nav App for Android

A free sat nav app availble for Android phones. There is a more functional version for the iPhone. Currently, the Android app only has UK mapping, although other countries are to be released at a later date. Installed on my HTC Wildfire, this software is slow to load, laggy when calculating routes and makes the phone run extremely hot. Battery life can't keep up, even when using the car charger. Running this app alongside my Tom Tom shows the routing to be even more erratic, with fastest journies often being 10 miles or so further than the TT equivalent route. If you take a wrong turn, the app will struggle to re- calculate and will often just switch off if it deems no route possible. The positive side in my opinion? It's free and it will do as a last chance solution.
