Navigation without GPS with Android Auto

Prepare a route on your phone and open it on Android Auto. When GPS is unreliable, start at a known place and estimate movement with a set speed, checking visible landmarks.

Need navigation without internet?

Prepare before driving

  1. Save your start and destination

    While parked, find an address or drop a pin. Confirm that your starting location is correct.

  2. Download your maps

    For travel without internet, prepare every region along the route and wait for installation to finish.

  3. Open Android Auto

    Connect a compatible phone to your car system and open the app in Android Auto. Check your route and directions before moving.

A car display does not make an estimated position exact. A cable connection does not guarantee vehicle speed from OBD. Do not use your phone while driving or treat a route as proof of road safety.

What navigation without GPS means

Position from landmarks

You set the starting location. A set speed estimates your progress; it does not provide satellite accuracy. Correct your location while safely parked.

Maps without internet

Downloaded regions contain maps, addresses and roads. New air alerts and reports require a connection.

Prepare your maps before you travel

Open More → Navigation and maps → Maps and downloads, or tap the download icon in the navigator. Download the regions you need before travelling. Check map and route readiness, then select offline mode.
