Even though we now have free Ovi Maps navigation and mapping on many of our Nokia devices, I personally still jump onto Google Maps for quick navigation and searching for businesses and places. Yesterday, Google posted news that Google Maps 4.1 is now available for Symbian S60 phones. This latest update adds Search by Voice capability, which can be quite helpful if you are in a vehicle and should not be entering text while driving.

To get this new version, simply go to m.google.com/maps in your mobile browser to download the latest version. Thanks to the folks at All About Symbian for the heads-up.

Hi,

Ok it does voice search and I got this confused with Navigation. It does nt support navigation on my version of S60. It seems it’s only supported on Android.
