About WalkWay Navi - GPS For Walking
FORGET ABOUT READING CONFUSING MAPS TO WALK TO YOUR DESTINATION.
Frequently, maps are more likely to confuse you and you end up going the wrong way. With the WalkWay Navi app all you need is to follow the arrow and feel the vibration on your smart phone. It's a personal GPS navigator for walking without having to worry about reading maps and getting your bearings.

- Simplified to the point that even people who have difficulties reading maps can use the app. All you need to do is to follow the arrow.
- No need to constantly look at the phone because it will vibrate to indicate that you need to turn or change direction.
OUTSTANDING DESIGN FEATURES
- Very fast loading and searches.
- Search terms can be an address, name, or generic terms for nearby places like ATM, Bank, Bar, Club, Food, Pharmacy, Restaurant, Subway, etc.
