No voice turn by turn navigation for the Maps app?

[David Cox1]

Did they take out the voice turn by turn navigation out of maps as I can't seem to find any settings for it. I know that in 7.5 it wasn't all that great as you had to tap the screen for the voice to tell you where to go next but I would have thought they would have fixed it so that it will automatically tell you where to turn in WP8. Did they take it out or am I missing something here?

nokia maps as far as i know does not have turn by turn, nokia drive does, not sure if nokia drive comes on non nokia phones though as it does on all nokia phones

My understanding is that Nokia has a period of exclusivity for Drive on its phones, after which it will be released for general use (and then presumably the next version of Drive (+?) will be an exclusive.

everyone needs to raise a stink about this so Microsoft does something about it. Releasing Windows 8 phones without native navigation is blasphemous. Absolute blasphemy, I say.

If you have drive you have to download the turn by turn voice.
