Just updated google maps via the market place to version 4.3 and i admit the answer is no doubt staring me in the face but on a earlier version of the said "app" you had the option to use street view while navigating. My question is "where is it gone" as for some reason when i now try to navigate to a destination that option is missing.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI was using Google maps and navigation for a while now, all of a sudden, the street view doesn't work any more.
I would enter directions in Google maps, and press navigate, when GPS has found me and I'm in a mode where the arrow shows which way I'm facing, double-tapping the screen doesn't enable street view any more and I don't know why.
Is there a way on Google Navigation you can get the view down to street level - like the kind you get on a Tom Tom? You know, the arrow very close to the screen & it shows you turn by turn?

View 5 Replies View RelatedGoogle today announced a free, turn-by-turn GPS navigation application for the new Android 2.0 smart phone platform.
This new feature comes with everything you'd expect to find in a GPS navigation system, like 3D views, turn-by-turn voice guidance and automatic rerouting. But unlike most navigation systems, Google Maps Navigation was built from the ground up to take advantage of your phone's Internet connection.
Among the features included in the application:
- Up-to-date map data: Automatically includes latest map data from Google, which is constantly being refined by Google and by users submitting corrections
- Plain English search: Locate destinations by entering business business name or landmark; no address needed
- Voice search: Speak destinations and Google Maps Navigation will automatically interpret and plot routes
- Live traffic data: Indicator warns of upcoming traffic issues
- Search along route: Find businesses along path of travel
- Satellite view: 3D view of route to aid in understanding directions
- Street View: first-person perspective of route and destination images
A video preview of Google Maps Navigation has also been posted.

Prob a noob question or maybe I'm just not seeing it but in google maps, how do I get street view? I can't seem to find it for the life of me. Also, there's apparently a bicycle directions layer option which I can't seem to find.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've seen many people complaining that their Google Navigation doesn't read street names anymore. But I was wondering if the reverse is possible. In other words, is there a way to stop Google Navigation from reading street names?
So for example,
Currently: "Turn left onto Lehigh Street in 500 m"
I want it to be: "Turn left in 500 m"
Is there a way to disable the street name TTS without rooting?
I discovered an option in street view that is called "Compass View". Not sure what use it is but I thought it was cool. You have to hold the phone in portrait as opposed to landscape for the compass to work...check it out.

But really tho what are you guys using street view for on your phone other than to show you friends who own Iphones how cool it it? Are there functions that I'm missing?
To me it almost seems useless for a handheld device. Even if it moved real time as your walking all it will show you is what you would see right now ... only 6 month to a year ago.
So my question .... is anyone using street view for anything useful .... or am I missing something.
It used to work but now it has gone missing. GM has updated to 4.2.0 (#4210) and i wonder if that removed it?
It's not in the Layer menu. If I hold finger down on a location it doesn't come up in a menu from that either So how to I get it back?
Where is the street view in Google maps ? I do not see it in the layers menu.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an application that is loading the street view application at a given latitude and longitude. I was wondering if anyone knows a way of determining if a streetview is available at a specific location, so that instead of loading the streetview and trying to download a view somewhere where it is unavailable, ultimately throwing an error, I can display a message instead. The maps application can do it but I can't seem to find a way using the android api, maps api or any of the intent uri's.
View 5 Replies View RelatedPer the title, there are new versions of Maps and Street View in the market. The Maps update is just to add walking directions I think and the street view was a more polished update. Street view doesn't work after install, at least on my Epic. I open maps, pick a road and long-click on it. A balloon pops up saying "Loading address" for about 30 seconds then give me a pop-up error that says "Data Connection Lost, Retrying" But, data is working just fine on the phone everywhere else. Try rebooting the phone after install, it helped. Still some errors but much better than before. It is awesome when it works. Try compass mode.

View 18 Replies View RelatedWhen using google navigation, I am typically shown a top-down view (north is up) rather than the standard perspective, or 3D view.
Is this an issue with GPS? Or is there a setting I'm missing somewhere? I've tried touching the compass icon to change views, but still in map mode.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am REALLY impressed with the google maps navigation on my Desire, I have a TomTom and pay for maps quarterly and it's up to date but still does not know about the 4 new roads where i live and one is a few miles long. However Google Navigation knew about the new roads (1 extra before i knew, let alone tomtom)
How can they offer such great navigation for free when i have just paid ?74 for my tom tom map update and it's still out of date.! if htc/google can fix the issue of calls via blutooth whilst using HTC desire for navigation i tell you TOMTOM are history and thats hard to say after all these years!
Need some advice, google maps and navigation never quite takes me to the right place, close too it but never quite there. Now near location is okay for something free, but its usually that last wee bit that you need more than anything, instead of you coming to an estate and it tells you its on the left hand side, which is the whole estate. I read in a thread here someplace about another free sat-nav that Im sure was for another phone type, but then someone in one of the other phone forums gave everyone a link into that forum to show how it works. Anyone know what I am talking about ? (most folks never do and they know me lol) or anyone know how to make the google navigation more reliable?
