App like Here City Lens

[Deepak Bhatla]

Hi,

Here City Lens is not available on Lumia 625.

Any idea, can we get any similar software like City Lens for 625?

Here maps have a similar feature called live sight.

What about any third party software?

Don't know. But if you want similar experience you have that in here maps.

I doubt if any similar app would work with the 625 due to the lack of a compass. The omission of a compass is my biggest source of disappointment with the 625.

Here Drive works fine because as soon as you drive, the GPS/GLONASS can calculate a proper heading. Not so with Here Maps. Walking speed isn't enough to give the GPS/GLONASS a chance to calculate your general heading or direction. Here Maps without a working compass is next to useless if you need to navigate in a city. Believe me, I tried. You could bring an analog compass with you, but why bother? I'll probably just bring my Android next time I need to find my way around an unfamiliar city.
