This app is now available on the Apple App Store for a free download.
These are the details and spec for the NavFree GPS navigation app for the iPhone;
Navfree is powered by Navmii, a top selling premium navigation software application. TOTALLY FREE!!!! No monthly fees or Annual charges. Maps are stored on your device. No data connection is required* FREE MAP UPDATES!!! Receive free updates of the map data for life. AN INDUSTRY FIRST – Navfree uses map data from OpenStreetMap (OSM), often referred to as the Wikipedia of maps, which allows us to provide you with full GPS navigation at no cost to you. HOW CAN YOU OFFER THIS FOR FREE? OpenStreetMap is an open source mapping system that was created by over 250,000+ users and as such the map data is free to use. As the maps are open and rely on users creating and updating them there will be a chance that some of the maps are incorrect or missing all together, especially in more rural areas. The good news is you can add & improve the map yourself by getting involved at OpenStreetMap, using one of the freely available map editors or simply use Navfree’s inbuilt map report tool to send mapping errors! With your help OpenStreetMap can be the most accurate street map in the world. Maps are stored on the iPhone/iPad so no data connection is required for map browsing/routing & address search
