No, but it will be only in the US first.

All the best

Hi Steve, this is a good app. I like the layout and the tracking feature. Do
you know when lookout is going to be released as I need something that can
read text from a document or menu.

Hi,

What's missing with NowNav is the ability to save favourites recorded 
by your voice.  So when you save a favourite, you have to type in its
name.
This is sometimes not practical.  What would be nice is the ability to 
hit the add favourite button, then record a small message that would 
be played when you reach it.

I also don't like it's turn by turn, because it's not smart enough to 
pick the shortest/fastest route, and you have no ability in a car to 
avoid tolls for example.  So I would leave that to Google Maps.

The turn by Turn in NowNav is pretty basic, and really only any good 
for walking.

All the best

Steve

NowNav provides both turn by turn directions and the ability to save 
favourite places (aka Waypoints). It doesn't support public transit as 
such, but will announce bus stops, rail stations as you approach them.
