Locale is one of these applications which it is considered one of the most popular GPS apps available on the market. This app offers information regarding places you are looking for such as: bars, restaurants, hospitals and other public services. But that is not all it can do. Locale is able to track your location and also detects changes in the phone’s location, so that you will not disturb the audience if you are in a movie hall, for example. In this situation your phone profile turns to Silent.
Another useful GPS app that you should have on your Samsung Galaxy S is Yelp. It helps you find useful information about the nearest gas stations, hospitals and eat outs. This app is the perfect way to find details about every business available near your current location. As a result, you will not fell lost in a foreign place.
TeleNav GPS Navigator is another useful app for your Samsung Galaxy S that offers voice guided GPS, maps and real-time traffic updates. With the help of this app you will be able to find restaurants, hospitals and many other businesses and get there quickly. The app comes with various features including multi-routes that allow you to choose one of the three suggested routes available to get to your destination while taking into consideration parameters such as traffic, distance and drive times. You also have Quick Search that allows you to search more than 22 million places and get even reviews about these places and the Life Traffic option that offers real-time information regarding the traffic available on your route and even provides new routes to get you on time to your destination.

I should also mention the Sygic: GPS Navigation app which is a great GPS app for your smartphone because it provides turn-by-turn directions. Actually, this is a voice guided GPS app that comes packed with TomTom maps and various navigation features. The app and all its included maps are updated around the clock for no extra charge. I like this app because the maps can be stored on the phone and they can be used even without an internet connection.
These are only a few of the GPS apps available for the incredible Samsung Galaxy S. You should definitely check out the other apps available like Navigon Europe, Google Earth and Layer.
