Route guidance uses a rotating compass on the

device display. A red ball shows the direction to the

destination, and the approximate distance to it is

shown inside the compass ring.
Route guidance is designed to show the straightest

route and the shortest distance to the destination,

measured in a straight line. Any obstacles on the

route, such as buildings and natural obstacles, are

ignored. Differences in altitude are not taken into

account when calculating the distance. Route

guidance is active only when you move.
