After Nokia sold it, the HERE Maps application was released to the Android platform on 10 December 2014 and iOS the next year.

It was preinstalled on handsets, including Nokia N95, which featured Global Positioning System (GPS) technology.

[7] Turn-by-turn navigation and traffic information originally required a subscription, but in January 2010 Nokia announced that these would be provided for free.

[11] The rebranded version was initially released for iOS and later in February 2013 for all Windows Phone 8 devices.

The HERE application was first announced for Android as a beta test version for some Samsung Galaxy smartphones on 29 August 2014.

[16] The first public release of the beta Here app (across all Android platforms) was on 21 October 2014, as an APK download from the HERE.com Web site.

[21][22] It also offers live traffic flow visualization, public transport search, and synchronization of user's points of interest (Collections) between the website and mobile devices.

Additionally, it shows heat maps to visualize areas popular for food, nightlife, shopping and local sights in select cities, listing and managing businesses.

[27][28][29][30] On 15 March 2016, HERE announced that it would discontinue support for its app for Windows 10 Mobile on 29 March 2016 due to its use of "a workaround that will no longer be effective after June 30, 2016", and that the existing Windows Phone 8 app would only receive critical updates after this date and no longer be actively developed.

HERE Maps licensed by Microsoft are still offered as part of the existing Bing Maps-based software on these devices.

The update and rebranding focused on navigation capabilities, including adding taxi fare information in some cities and integrating with Daimler's Car2Go service.

[34] Depending on the smartphone model, HERE WeGo provides pre-recorded navigation voices and text-to-speech commands with street names.

[37] In late June 2015, HERE added real-time traffic for reversible express lanes across the United States and Europe.

As of 23 October 2017[update] there was no option to sort collections by name or distance in the Web, Android, and iOS versions.

HERE WeGo can download maps of countries and regions to internal storage so that a data connection is not needed for navigation.

[40] The maps include floor-by-floor details of large indoor venues such as shopping malls and airports.
