HTC Locations have been updated and this update allows you to download maps for offline use. The GPS navigation speaks to you with voice prompts that tell you where to go (walking or driving) even if you don’t have an internet connection. HTC Locations also has a wider breadth of features that many will find useful, while Nokia Drive is very basic and simple.

However, while Nokia Drive provides you free lifetime maps, HTC Locations offers only a free trial period of 30 days counting on the download day. After this testing period, you will have to buy extended licenses in-app per country/region.
