Of course you have to download the map ypu wanna use, duh. Plus I live in a third world country and it has everything so far including adresses and it works even for coordinates
Well how else do you think navigation works?
Of course it's going to need data.
Google gets away with it by streaming the data.
Smaller 3rd party mapping companies don't have the infrastructure to do that so you download map packages.
That's how it worked before navigation devices had always on internet connections.
220mb for a city it really quite efficient, I wouldn't be complaining.
