    According to an item on tweakers.net it would cost € 9 for 6 months, € 5 for 3 months or € 2 for 1 month. But that is based on the new (simular) app for iOS.

    I guess it's safe to say the app won't be free forever

    Maybe is stays free of charge just like Google maps. Apple works together with TomTom. There are only two big navigation software makers Alphabet Google and TomTom.

    The New TomTom NDS is for the South American market, inbuild app-mirror-dashboard.

    But we have made it available to everyone just for now.

    I think you forgot Navteq (aka HERE) and no, it doesn't stay free of charge. Just like tomtom did last week with the iOS app, they will lauch it for Android too and that's when we'll have to start paying.

    Navteq ,,Under Nokia this part continued as HERE. In 2015, after Microsoft had taken over Nokia in 2014 and Nokia no longer saw its navigation branch as a core business, HERE was sold for 2.7 billion euros to Audi, BMW and Daimler Benz.

    Correct, and Navteq/ HERE is still a supplier of maps. As is TomTom (TeleAtlas). Google only recently start selling their maps to 3rd parties for use in navigation devices
