In addition to turn-by-turn, voice prompted directions, users will also see their exact position on a detailed moving map. With a few screen or button taps, customers can easily route to a specific street address or choose from millions of points of interest – such as restaurants, hotels, ATMs, and gas stations. Customers are then greeted with Garmin’s intuitive “Where to?” and “View map” welcome screen.

Once the card is inserted into a compatible smartphone with embedded GPS, the Garmin Mobile XT application will launch automatically. Garmin Mobile XT is preloaded on a microSD card (with miniSD and standard SD card converter) that includes Garmin navigation software for the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico, or Europe. “It’s a one-time investment that gives customers full-featured GPS navigation on their smartphone whenever and wherever they need it, including areas outside of wireless network coverage.” “Garmin Mobile XT is easy-to-use and affordable, with no monthly charges” said Charles Morse, Garmin’s director of mobile and PND marketing. Unlike other mobile phone applications, Garmin Mobile XT offers convenient preloaded maps and includes access to dynamic content like premium real-time traffic alerts and fuel prices, but does not require any monthly fees or subscriptions of any kind. This mobile phone software application seamlessly pairs the phone’s built-in GPS with Garmin’s software so that customers have the benefits of navigation anywhere in North America or Europe.
