Maps

Google Maps allow you to track your current location, view
real-time traffic issues, and view detailed destination
directions. There is also a search tool included to help you
locate places of interest or a specific address. You can view
locations on a vector or aerial map, or you can view locations
at the street level.
Important! Before using Google Maps you must have an active
data (3G/4G/LTE) or Wi-Fi connection. The Maps
application does not cover every country or city.
From the Home screen, tap
(Maps).
Important! For best results, it is recommended that you enable
all of your location services. For more information,
refer to "Location Services" on page 302.
