8.4 Using Google Maps

Google Maps lets you track your current location, view real-time traffic situations,
and receive detailed directions to your destination. It also provides a search tool
where you can locate places of interest or an address on a vector or aerial map, or
view locations in street level.
Notes
• You need an active data (G/GPRS) or Wi-Fi connection to use Google Maps.
• The Google Maps application does not cover every country or city.
