Good news for all you Windows Phone users out there.

There are a couple of good improvements which this update is bringing. Lets have a look at them below.

  • HERE Drive+ and HERE Transit are now free for Windows Phone 8.0 devices. Earlier both the apps were made free for Windows Phone 8.1 devices.
  • Today’s update of HERE Drive+ for Windows Phone brings voice-guided navigation for 18 new countries and territories: Algeria, Angola*, Bangladesh*, Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, Cyprus, Iraq, Libya, Mauritania, Mauritius, Nepal*, Paraguay, Saint Helena, Senegal*, Sri Lanka*, Suriname*, Zambia*, Zimbabwe*. This brings the total number of freely navigable countries to 118. (*Note Not all the roads in these countries have been mapped yet. You can use HERE, but full navigation won’t be available there.)
  • Stability and performance improvements across all the HERE apps
  • Introduction of HERE accounts which means if you have been using a Nokia account, its time for you to move on and create a HERE account. You can import your collection of favorites from Nokia account to HERE account.
