Here Drive+ is for FREE now :)

[Dhileepudu Jambula]

For all Non-Lumia users, Here Drive+ is FREE now, go for it...

I have a HTC 8X and I know MS is going to make it free but was just going through some apps and found Here Drive+ for FREE...Thats it - DOWNLOADED

I don't know earlier whether it was mentioned in any other thread but thought it might help others who have 8.1 on their non-Lumia devices

:grin::grin::grin:

It's been my favorite nav app since I had a WP8 Nokia.

Yes, even its my favorite one, I had used it in one of friends mobile and cursed HTC at that time...but here we go...Thanks to MS...

I think he was referring to some Lumia (eg L720) which is restricted only one FREE country/region map download. You have to pay if you wish to download maps of another country

I can confirm my Lumia 620 (UK CV) can have at least two countries on - I have UK and it's sat downloading Finland (as a test run).

Yep, it installed automatically when I installed WP8.1 on my ATIV S.

with 8.1 here drive+ is available for l520/525 also

In 8.1 you have the complete here drive package, no mater witch Phone you use
in 8.0 only a few phones have this package
In 8.0 the 520/1320 only have a restricted version, and i believe a few other low budget phones of the lumia range.

Here Drive is a darn good app, but it has its shortcommings.
Yesterday i tried it to navigate it with a truck.
First problem i encountered was the hight and lateron the weight, so i had to come up with a other route.
So a truckversion would be a welcome asset

Is there still some restriction, that free Here Drive+ isn't yet available for all countries?
I am in Czech republic, have HTC 8x with WP8.1 in developer preview but still see Here Drive+ in store in payed version:-/

Just thinking out loud....what if you use a systemupdater app I don't know if HTC has one in the store. Nokia has one maybe Samsung and HTC as well....????
