Garmin StreetPilot onDemand iPhone app released on App Store

Satellite navigation provider Garmin has announced that its new StreetPilot onDemand iPhone app is now available in the Apple App Store. The iPhone app provides iPhone users convenient navigation for walking or driving when they need it, with an initial $.99 download that includes 30 days of premium features.

Garmin's StreetPilot onDemand is the first iPhone navigation app to include multimodal pedestrian routing, with bus and train transit schedules in many major cities. Additional premium features include spoken turn-by-turn guidance with street names, representation of 3D buildings and landmarks, traffic rerouting, photoReal Junction View and Google Local Search, among many others.

Garmin StreetPilot onDemand is available in the App Store on iPhone or at www.apple.com/appstore for $.99 and includes turn-by-turn, voice prompted navigation and traffic rerouting for 30 days in the United States and Canada. Users can extend this initial period by subscribing on a monthly ($2.99) or annual ($29.99) basis.

Garmin offers a special introductory price of $19.99 for the yearly subscription from August 31, 2011, to September 14, 2011. Even without a subscription, users can still view maps, lookup points of interest and create routes. A subscription is required for turn-by-turn voice guidance with automatic off-route recalculation, real-time traffic information and multimodal pedestrian routing.
