    Nokia - Here use ONLY Nokia - Here maps. If some one read "use of terms" inside the program, can proof of this.

    Why we have this delay ? Because there are over 140 maps and the company has to test them, one by one before give us one country. Here has beta testers all over the world. There are 3 to 5 zones of popular countries and with this theory they test, before the maps publish. Of course "Turn-by-turn guidance" has to test it, separately.

    Here has a lot of problems to solve. And the most difficult is the 100% of application working to all the smartphone, all the platforms Win - iOS -Android

    Why I wouldnt switch to Here in my opinion:

    1. Most important, lack of speedcams support (not even if you want to pay for)
    2. Lack of the most common important features like Lane Assist and, less important IMHO, Junction View which anyway are a standard nowadays.

    Yep, all of the above are lacking. Also lack of "open source" access or "hackers" to create skins and improve proggy. Nokia HERE proggy strong points is availability of it's HERE maps. Although not being able to download it from PC and saved for later use is a pain in the butt. Nokia HERE strong rating is from a lot of clueless users who think "off line" GPS that's "free" is the best since they've been using google map But when compared to others proggies like iGO, Navigon, Street Pilot, it's lagging behind.

    Yes, but ...

    If you have download maps to phone, copy them to PC. I have notice, if we uninstall the application the maps folder still exits for a feature new install. Maybe, this is a solution

    So map data only goes away if you 'Clear Data' before uninstalling? Also location of map is very obscured, I found it once and the map data is not organized in any fashion. Looks like the files are tiles with hex value naming (this is bad because what if I only want to save one state or country)

    If you 'Clear Data' before uninstalling you will clear only the root foder, data\data\ ...... dots is nokia here folder name.
    It's only visible for root devices.

    I have tried to remove one or more countries that I had download from inside the application, but after that, with a file manager the GB data was the same. No mater what the user do, remove the application or manual delete from inside the application the maps still exits. The next problem is what folder I must remove? With this "clever" folder name coding, the user is very difficult to find the right one. That's another bug from HERE.

    About the maps backup, as I told it's not the perfect solution, but if you know the countries you have download, you can backup all of them to PC.

    This is happening because Here wants the application works also like Google maps. The user ability to download a small area he needs instead of a entire country. This practical saves the big download mobile data for users
