The guidance view

The guidance view is used to guide you along the route to your destination. The guidance view is shown when you start driving. You see your current location and details along your route, including 3D buildings in some cities.

Note: 3D buildings in guidance view are not available on all devices.

The guidance view is normally in 3D. To show a 2D map with the map moving in your direction of travel, change the 2D and 3D default settings.

Tip: When you have planned a route and the 3D guidance view is shown, select the switch view button to change to the map view and use the interactive features.

When your GO starts after sleeping and you have a route planned, you are shown the guidance view with your current location.
