Friends I have tried this GPS app and I can certainly recommend it. It is the best GPS app I have come across. It is generally accessible. However, if you check the accessibility option under plugin, the accessibility experience becomes simply wonderful.
It works both in online and offline mode. You can update the maps directly from the app. There is turn by turn navigation and autocorrection of route is also available. It also has a built in compass. I tried it yesterday and I can say I love it.
