-Standard voice navigation as you know it from your car or other applications. Starting and ending points can be selected by various methods of the {{:manual:user_guide:ic_get_location_alt.png?nolink&30}}[[:manual:user_guide:tools:location|Location Selector]] (GPS position, address, tap on map…). Provided you do not use **[[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=btools.routingapp|BRouter]] offline routing service** the navigation is computed online so the internet connection is needed. +Standard voice turn-by-turn navigation. Here's how to use it:

-Use when you need accurate or special definition of your target location. +When you need to define your target location another way, use **location selector**: 
-  - tap //Menu > More functions > Navigate to// {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace24.gif?nolink |}}+  - tap //Menu > Navigate to//\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace24.jpg?nolink |}}

- +===== 2. Start navigation ===== 
-==== Point on map ==== +  * the app immediately generates the route by the **last used routing profile** (activity or means of transport) and opens it in the route planner. You can edit the route, add waypoints or change the routing profile (see below). 
-Similar to the first method but now you select directly some point of interest: +  * tap the **navigation button** in the top bar.  
-  - tap a point of interest displayed on the map (a geocache or some LoMap POI) +  * the voice prompt announces the start and **starts navigating**:\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigace38.gif?nolink |}} 
-  - tap ">" on the point label and select **Navigate to** +<WRAP center round tip>

- +==== Adding via points ==== 
-=== Definition of an own navigation target for repeated use === +You can add a via point to the route when the navigation is in progress: 
- +  * Tap a **[[manual:user_guide:points:locus_maps_pois|LoPoint]]** or a **[[manual:user_guide:points:management|user point]]** on the map or in the **[[manual:user_guide:points:management|point manager]]** or **long-press any place on the map**

-  - set the icon and name of the location (home, work, grandma…) and tap the circle icon to select method of defining the target: \\ {{  :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace11.png?nolink&  }} +===== Options to do before starting navigation ===== 
-  - define your target by showing it on the map, address etc.: \\ {{  :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace12.png?nolink&  }} +==== Changing activity or means of transport ==== 
-  - confirm. Your navigation destination appears among the location selecting methods: \\ {{  :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace13.png?nolink&  }} +By default, Locus Map generates the route with the latest used routing profile. To change that, **tap the route profile selection button and select another profile** (activity or means of transport):\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:tracks:rteplan3.gif?nolink |}}

-When you start navigation next time, just select the target from the grid. <WRAP center round tip > +
-===== 2. Select activity or means of transport ===== +
- +
-Next step is to choose the navigation profile - means of transport. The selection depends on used navigation data source. Locus supports [[manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:settings#navigation_data_sources|several navigation data sources]]. MapQuest and BRouter provide further profile settings:\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:navigation:navigace21.png?nolink |}} +
