2196 Navmii, a publisher of navigation and location apps, has launched its new community-based navigation product, NavFree, a free, fully functioning GPS/satellite navigation app for iPhone and iPad. Currently available for the UK & Republic of Ireland from the iTunes store, the company says it will quickly be rolled out across Europe and the USA. A version of Navfree for Android will also be released shortly.

NavFree users can search for an address by postcode, city, street or house and are instantly routed there with full voice directions. It will re-route if a user takes a wrong turn and provides information on the journey distance, estimated time of arrival, points of interest and live Google search for local facilities. Importantly, mapping is provided by OpenStreetMap and is stored on the mobile device so there are no mobile data charges for users.
