The Maps app from apple is pre-loaded on there and you can use it to navigate. We have used Waze which tracks as you drive and uses info from others using the app to assess traffic conditions ahead and re-route and warn you. It also alerts you to cops and cars on the side of the road reported by other Wazers and as a Wazer, your passenger can report those things as you drive by. Another cool feature is you can share your trip, so if you are meeting up with others they can follow the link you send them and see where you are and when you are expected to arrive.
