Significant difference between the influence of the past year is actually not ideal. The site is designed for mobile users,Nokia Maps can not speak Chinese  Articles the search position, looking for regular service routes as well as share information with friends, driving directions, walking directions and public transportation navigation. Map layer, the Nokia Maps mobile site marked with a public transport hub map mode, satellite mode and the mode of real-time traffic congestion status. Last week, Nokia announced its Maps for mobile website to all your device's browser to open the Turn-by-turn voice navigation service. To this end, the reporter specifically by the iPhone to try this new service, design is very primitive, inconvenient to use Chinese users.

Nokia Maps mobile site Nokia officially launched last year, but because there is no significant difference between the map with Google (microblogging), the influence is actually not ideal. The site is designed for mobile users, the search position, looking for regular service routes as well as share information with friends, driving directions, walking directions and public transportation navigation. Map layer, the Nokia Maps mobile site marked with a public transport hub map mode, satellite mode and the mode of real-time traffic congestion status.

Users simply log on in the mobile browser m m aps.nokia.com, you can access the map service. Should be noted that generally this web page voice navigation system comes with a browser to access, such as the iPhone the Safari browser. At the same time, some third-party browser does not support this function, such as reporters try to use the UC browser login page prompts the browser does not support, and requires the user to using m aps.nokia.com website.

Nokia Maps mobile site is currently only supports English interface, including menu of the software, place names on the map are in English, but occasionally see some Chinese place names. The most inappropriate places is to navigate the entire English pronunciation.

Finished selecting the place of departure and destination and Nokia Maps mobile site will be planning a travel route, the right of it, there will be a play button, the user just a few clicks, you can use the voice navigation service. However, when the reporter entered the destination, but was prompted to temporarily unable to enjoy this service in the Chinese region. The reporter was then manually enter the departure and arrival locations in the City of London found that the voice navigation can start properly.

The Nokia Maps mobile site by car, jogging, public transportation and other several ways to render the road way, car dvd player but reporters found only in the walking mode, the map site Turn-by-turn voice navigation service was formally can use. More people need to use the voice navigation by car mode, Turn-by-turn voice navigation service can not be the normal use of the play button to the right of the line has disappeared.

To create a Web version of voice navigation of Nokia Maps mobile site is a very good attempt to abandon the previously common mobile application installation mode. Drift deviation map positioning may occur, will affect to the Chinese version of voice navigation service. Nokia Maps mobile site is more like testing the waters, I hope future versions will bring more surprises.
