Yandex Maps and Navigator

Yandex Maps and Navigator is an Android application in the navigation category. It combines city maps, place search, route planning, traffic information, and public transport data in one tool. It is intended for drivers, pedestrians, and public transport users who need to find destinations or plan journeys.

The Navigator component provides real-time traffic forecasts and can recommend a faster route when conditions change. Voice prompts can announce turns, cameras, speed limits, accidents, and roadworks, while the Alice assistant can help find places, create routes, or call a contact. Users can download maps for offline navigation and use the application on a car display through Android Auto. The app also includes city parking information and supports paying for fuel at more than 8,000 gas stations across Russia.

Places can be searched by address, name, or category, with filters and details such as entrances, driveways, contact information, opening hours, services, photos, reviews, and ratings. Offline maps support place searches without an internet connection, and indoor maps are available for selected large shopping malls, train stations, and airports. Public transport tools show buses, trolleybuses, trams, and minibuses in real time, including selected routes, stop arrival estimates, schedules for the next 30 days, and metro station congestion information.

The application fits Android as a mobile navigation tool that can also extend to compatible car screens through Android Auto. MirrorNest links directly to the official release instead of mirroring the application. The license is unknown, so licensing terms should be checked through the official release before use or redistribution.

Free to use — a paid version with additional features is also available.
