FlowMaps is a navigation app built for people who drive all day. CURRENT COVERAGE The map, routes and alerts cover Brazil and the United States (the contiguous US, Alaska and Hawaii), from big cities to rural highways. NAVIGATION IN YOUR LANGUAGE Directions are spoken in English or Portuguese, with the street name and the distance to the next turn, in miles and feet or in kilometers, as you prefer. The camera follows the car at an angle, showing the road ahead, and widens the view with your speed: on the highway you see farther, and at an intersection the map zooms in so you can spot the right turn. KEEPS GUIDING WITH THE SCREEN OFF Put your phone in your pocket or on the mount and the directions keep coming. If you lose signal in the middle of a trip, the phone takes over navigation on its own: the next turn keeps moving, without depending on the internet. SEARCH AND ROUTES Type or say your destination. The app suggests addresses, businesses and landmarks as you type, and keeps your recent destinations so you don't have to type them again. Before you leave, compare up to three routes with the time and distance of each one, and switch routes mid-trip if you prefer another. ALERTS FROM DRIVERS ON THE ROAD One tap warns other drivers about police checkpoints, crashes, stopped traffic, potholes, hazards on the shoulder, flooding, closed roads, speed cameras, safety issues, gas stations or map errors. You hear the alerts on your route by voice, early enough to react. YOUR TRIPS Every trip is saved in your history, with time, distance and start time. Use it to review your workday; it also helps the app estimate arrival times better. PRIVACY You sign in with your phone number or email, and nothing is recorded before you allow it. Consent is separate for each purpose: you can use navigation without allowing your route to be recorded for training. It's your choice, and it starts off. Background location is only requested when you start navigating, never when you open the app. You can delete your history or your account at any time. FLOWMAPS PRO (optional subscription) Radio with a range of up to 30 km (about 19 miles), private Radio groups, and Guardian recordings in the cloud with audio. Monthly subscription with automatic renewal, charged to your Apple Account. Cancel anytime in iPhone Settings, at least 24 hours before renewal. Navigation remains free.
