Ovi Maps 3.06 For Mobile

Nokia Ovi Maps for Mobile have been updated to v3.06. See your location on the map, explore places around you -- or anywhere in the world -- and share them. Navigate to your destination with free Drive or Walk in 78 countries. Once you’ve arrived check in to a place and share it with your friends on your favourite social networks. Nokia has made a few major improvements to Ovi Maps in this release. These include:

• New! Support for Foursquare and Qype! – check in to Foursquare as you check in with us and share where you’re at and what you’re up to on your favourite social networks. Our list keeps growing! You may need to match the place on Ovi for us to the corresponding one on Foursquare or Qype, but we’ll remember that link. Next time you check into the same place you won’t have to do that anymore.
• New! Adding a public place -- you’re one Check in away from becoming mayor at your favorite coffee place but Ovi doesn’t know it yet? Add it with a few simple steps and you’re ready to Check in. Once it’s been reviewed everyone else will be able to find it in Maps, too.
