CLUSTER TURN-NAVIGATION-TRAFFIC · 74 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2009-06-11
GPS navigation and mapping apps
This cluster comprises GPS navigation and mapping apps offering turn-by-turn directions, live traffic, offline maps, and region-specific features for drivers and travelers. The dated entry history from 2009 to 2026 shows a steady, low-frequency trickle of new products, with most months having a single entry and a few months with two to four, indicating sustained but sparse development rather than a clear growth pattern. Traction leaders, as measured by activity signal, are americangps, MapGT: Game Maps & Navigation, and Hudhud: Accurate KSA Maps, all at 0 stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 20 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
