See clearly with TruMap™ views
Over the years GPS maps have become more complicated, so we took the bold step and redesigned ours from scratch. The result is TruMap™, a unique design inspired by paper maps. We’ve simplified graphics and colour for a clutter-free look that’s easier to understand. The natural white background allows your route to stand out, so you can see your way at a glance. At dusk, the screen automatically switches to night mode and brightness is reduced for safer driving.
A new approach to lanes and junctions
With the MY500XT’s Lane Guidance, you’re always in the correct lane to make a turn, so useful with today’s busier roads. The Spirit software also features realistic 3D Junction Views that match major road signs, giving you more time to understand what’s ahead as you approach an exit or intersection.
Go with a guide
Pre-loaded into every new MY500XT are Travel Books from Wcities. Browse the in-depth listings of tourist attractions, places to eat, stay and visit, full of facts and photos. There are hundreds more to choose from, all quick and easy to download when you connect to MioMore™ Desktop 2 via your PC.
Go even further on foot
The MY500XT works brilliantly both in and out of the car. Walking Mode uses 2D city maps*, developed to help you find your way around major cities on foot with buildings outlined for easier navigation. By helping you discover new places not accessible by car, Mio takes navigation a step further. Now you really can explore more.
Smarter, greener routing
The MY500XT’s Economical Routing option assesses and reduces the number of junctions on your chosen route, so you can cut down on stopping and starting, fuel usage and also help lower your car’s CO2 emissions.
Explore with photos
With the MY500XT’s built-in NavPix™ photo album, you can browse through a huge variety of pictures such as tourist sites, hideaway beaches, hotels and restaurants. And connect your Navman to your PC to upload from over a million geo-tagged photos, free on the NavPix™ and Flickr® websites. Then simply touch the picture on your Navman and it navigates you there.
